What is <Obi Celebration>?

The ``Obi Celebration'' is a ritual that has been passed down since ancient times and is held on the day of the dog in the fifth month of pregnancy. Pregnancy is celebrated by wrapping a girdle around the stomach, and people pray at shrines and temples for a safe delivery.

 

The belly obi is also called the Iwata obi, and it was given this name in hopes of giving birth to a child who is strong and healthy like a rock. To protect the mother and fetus, wear a belly band on your skin and pray for a safe delivery.

The 5th month of pregnancy is when you enter a stable period and feel relieved.

By celebrating obi, you will be able to relieve your anxiety about giving birth and feel closer to giving birth.

A gentle texture to celebrate your pregnancy.

dog day and dog

The day of the dog is considered an auspicious day because it has long been said that dogs give birth easily, and it is considered a symbol of safe childbirth. ``Dog Day'' comes two or three times a month, at the cycle of the zodiac (once every 12 days).

Dogs also live with humans for a long time, and it is said that dogs protect children and drive away evil spirits. The use of ``inu papier-mâché'' is also a type of talisman, meaning it can be used as a talisman for children.

Original silk wool material containing air

[Sirugasane] is a textured fabric made of silk and wool.The skin side is smooth silk, and the outside is wool that retains heat, so it feels comfortable on bare skin and can be worn all year round. .
The air layer created within the fabric prevents stuffiness and coldness in the summer, and maintains body warmth and skin moisture in the winter.

 

Who will prepare the belly band?

In the past, a bride's family would give a belly band to their daughter and grandchild in hopes of a healthy and safe delivery, but these days there is no specific rule as to who should give the gift. Either one of the parents prepares it for you, you buy it yourself, or recently, some shrines have it prepared for you if you ask to pray for a safe delivery.

In recent years, there are many different shapes and materials, such as belly band types and pants types, and they can be used for a long time after washing and after giving birth, making them a great item for pre-birth celebrations and gifts.

As a precaution when giving gifts during the second trimester, we do not recommend giving baby items or gifts for babies. Before preparing any gifts or baby items for the baby, you should receive a report that the baby has been safely delivered and make sure that both mother and baby are healthy.
