In Irish superstition, if your shirt gets wet while washing dishes, it is believed to bring bad luck or a sign that you will experience a significant loss. This belief is rooted in the idea that water and domestic chores have symbolic meanings tied to fortune and misfortune. To counteract the bad luck, some might perform a small ritual or take care to avoid getting wet while doing dishes in the future.

Baby showers aren't an Irish custom. But my grandmother had several superstitions against tempting fate and giving baby gifts before the safe arrival of the newborn was one of them.
