lihi
:''For the town in Nepal see Lihi, Nepal''
In the Philippines, ''lihí'' is a condition in which a pregnant woman craves strongly for something, usually food such as sour, unripe mango with bagoong. While it is a cultural concept universal to Filipinos, it is also understood that expectant mothers of any race may experience ''lihí''. It is still debatable as to whether ''lihí'' can be classified as either a biological or psychological condition.
==Superstitions==
''Lihí'' also broadly encompasses a folk belief that the whatever a woman had craved for during pregnancy will imprint characteristics on the child. When a child resembles a manatee, for example, it is said that the mother enjoyed looking at that particular animal during the gestational period.
In other regions, ''lihí'' refers to the belief that any sensory stimuli imbibed by a pregnant woman influences the development of her child. Among some ethnic groups in the northern Philippines, it is taboo to mention anything about animals such as rats or pigs near a pregnant woman for fear that her child may acquire the features of the mentioned animals.
