Years ago, someone told me that if a woman in labor makes challah, It's a segulah for children for the one who eats the challah.

Anyone ever hear af this? I'd love to know if it's has a source.

Only thing I’ve heard related to this is that a woman should make challah in her ninth month, I think something to do with an easy labor

Ive heard of that one too. But I remember someone asking me if (as a Mikvah Lady) I knew anyone wh.o would want this challah she made while in labor. And the only woman I thought of had a gluten or yeast allergy and couldn't eat it. Also. I think they had to eat it the night they went to the mikvah

Yes I heard of it but I dont have a source. I didnt hear about the challah part, it was for baking in general.
I had the ostreichers frozen ready to bake cookies in my freezer and I made sure to bake some when I got into labor. I was supposed to give it to someone but instead I ate it as a zchus for her so that its not awkward.
she bh did have a child after... im sure it wasnt the only zchus she had done for her but maybe I had a chelek in it
(we did a lot for the couple besides the baking cookees lol)

I've heard of TAKING challa. With a bracha. While in labor.
And there are people who will bring a laboring woman challa dough so she can do the mitzva

Thank you. At least I know someone else heard about this, even if not exactly the same.

Do you know any more about it. Any specific details?
I know someone who made challah while in labor, and I know a few people who would appreciate the segula. But I need to know details to offer it.

What an opportunity! I called the girl who did it (made cake in labor ) and whose mom gave me the pieces) she's a young bubby now actually! She is trying to get more info and will share when I do beh!she was so inspired to hear the outcome as I didn't probably follow up with her or her mom post giving out the challla to those two ladies...there's a time for everything!
