Ask around in almost any family and you may hear the same piece of home wisdom. After the baby's bath, gently press and squeeze the little nose, keep doing it every day, and the child will grow up with a sharp, pointed nose instead of a flat one. The habit has been passed from grandmothers to mothers for years, and it got fresh attention in a reel where a woman said her own mom taught her exactly this.The clip shows fingers pinching a newborn's nose right after a bath, and the caption promises a pointed nose in return. A doctor watched it, smiled, and asked the obvious question: can you really reshape a baby's nose by constant manipulation? His answer was short and honest.
