Is that because they are the days most convenient for hospitals? :think:
My first two babies arrived past 41 weeks. My third had to be induced due to a threatening health condition at 37 weeks.
All mine were managed by hospitals and Tuesdays and Fridays were the days for two of them. Monday was a public holiday for my last child so the hospital booked me in for Tuesday and they never hesitated to remind me how busy they were and that I should labour faster because other women needed my delivery suite. :rolleyes:
DS 39+3 Saturday Morning (labour started Thursday Afternoon)
DD 38+3 Wednesday Evening (labour started Wednesday morning)
Both spontaneous VB's.
There is still something to this. Given tides are goverened by lunar cyclees its not surprising that these two are related..:
Maternity wards are still generally busier than normal on full moon.
