    Chinese Women Working In The Paddy Fields Giving Birth

    Heres a UL ive known for years, is it true I wonder? This is usually brought up when someone is pregnant, a comment is made "In China in the paddy fields, women work through the contractions, give birth, then continue working". Ive heard this so many times, and am guilty of repeating it too.
