IN MUĞLA
It has become customary to share the preparations for the birth within the family . After the child comes home , salt is rubbed so that the armpits do not smell while washing them . After the child ' s umbilical cord falls off , according to belief , the umbilical cord is buried in the school garden , in the courtyard of the mosque or in a nice place . Those who come to visit after the first week of birth must bring gifts ( such as towels , socks , children ' s underwear , fruit juice , flowers , etc .). Maternity sherbet is offered to those who come to the maternity visit . In births , in general , everyone takes care to go with something in their hand . There are also those who wear a gold bracelet or a quarter gold for the baby .
