Wednesdays child is full of woe,

Wednesdays Child
Long established poem - Wednesdays child
The words of Wednesdays child were used to introduce children to the different days of week. The wording of Wednesdays child guaranteed to ensure that a child would take a keen interest in which day that they were born on! Sunday was traditionally known as the 'Sabbath day' in the Christian religion. Although the poem is well known it is not one of the more popular rhymes therefore not repeated very often. We are therefore left with a vague memory that there was a rhyme but cannot readily remember the attribute of Wednesdays child!
"Wednesdays child is full of woe"

Monday's child is fair of face;
Tuesday's child is full of grace;
Wednesday's child is full of woe;
Thursday's child has far to go;
Friday's child is loving and giving;
Saturday's child works hard for a living.
But the child that is born on the Sabbath day is fair and wise, good and gay

Or the middle child

Or born on Wednesday

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
And the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe and good and gay.

Apart from being born on a Wednesday, I think you need
th old poem depicting childrens characters on whatever
day they were born...can'nt help you much there, although
I think: Sundays child is full of Grace, Mondays child is full
of face, Tuesdays child has far to go, Wednesdays child
is full of woe .... I cannot remember the rest ..sorry !!

It could be from the poem below:
Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go.
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
But the child born on the Sabbath Day,
Is fair and wise and good and gay.

However, it also means a foster child who is up for adoption.

it comes from an old saying.
mondays child is full of grace
tuesdays child is fair of face
wednesdays child is full of woe
thursdays child has far to go
fridays child is loving and giving
saturdays child works hard for a living
but the child thats born on the sabbath day is bonny ,blyth, good and gay.

so I think whoever has called you a wednedays child means you are always moaning. sorry!

Wednesdays child is "full of woe". This means that you are a bit of a misery!

Referring to your middle child because Wednesday is in the middle of the week :)
