my mother in law swears that i will go into labour on the full moon, well everybody who tracks the moon should know there is one on the 4th of March, so she keeps saying ive got until march. My actual question is:
are there any facts proving that *more* babies are born on a full moon then any other particular night???
thought this was interesting

Not really. Just wishful thinking, more likely. The one thing I do believe is the "when it rains it pours" theory. It means the most likely time you'll have your baby is when everyone else is having theirs. Of course this is actually true, because if there's a busier day for having babies, you have a better chance of having one on that day because more people had to have one that day to make it busier in the first place! Phew! When my daughter was born, it was the busiest day the hospital had all month. The day before (when I had arrived) it was a ghost town, the day after some women were already being discharged, but something about the twenty third got all the babies falling out. I've heard it has more to do with barometric pressure than anything else.

I provide this 10 hugs! ma wrote one the different day that spoke to me on an intuitive point. Deep as though linked I felt her poem. i understand this poem and desire i ought to have arise with the kit you used to furnish it- i admire the way you chosen the dictionary, calendar, properly meaning and destiny desire. i in my view do no longer think of a few human beings will ever sense the thought of deeper information. This leaves me with remembering the grief that i'm fairly on my own as a results of fact no longer something and no you will at situations make it extra effective. My spirituality is the only porthole or perhaps then as a results of fact i'm no longer suitable, I doubt. i understand i've got "long previous off" from the place this lead yet lol it fairly is me. BTW- Love the final line so very plenty.

I had my daughter on New Year's Eve, and when I got there on the 30th, the place was a madhouse! They said it was because the barometer had changed, and that big shifts like that normally saw more women going into labor than full moons.

Yeah it is true b/c of the gravitational from the moon when it is full. Most of the woman who do going into labor are also close to their due date.

i haven't seen any actual proof of that, but I work at a school and I definitely believe the full moon affects us somehow, the kids are always off on those days!

Hmm, I don't know -- but you might also want to check statistics about babies being born on eclipses, because you've got one of those on saturday night too!

We always said it was true when I worked at the hospital, but it has been disproven.
