Lunar calendar to know the time of delivery (March 2010)

There is little left for it to arrive March and as every month we offer you the possibility of knowing what day could pregnant women go into labor according to popular belief that says many women go into labor on the days when there are changes in the moon phase.

For those who have a vague idea of ​​what I comment and want to know a little more about what the belief consists of, it is said that the moon affects pregnant women in the same way that it affects the sea (you know that the tide rises at night through the gravitational effect of the moon).

The explanation is that humans are mostly water and babies also live in an aqueous environment called amniotic fluid. It is assumed that with the gravitational changes produced by the moon at each change in the lunar phase (and especially with the full moon) the chances of calving increase. There are studies in this regard, of which we have already spoken in Babies and more, which conclude that there is no difference with the phase changes and even with a full moon.

Without pregnancy, when asking people on foot, it is observed that two thirds of the population still thinks that the moon does affect and there are books and publications that explain really curious things.

It is said that formerly the menstrual periods went hand in hand with the lunar cycle (which is also 28 days), ovulating the full moon day and menstruating the new moon day. In this way the births were in full moon, and hence today we speak of the full moon day as the most likely. Women who had "changed" cycles menstruating on a full moon were considered witches.

As a curiosity: Menarquia (the first menstruation of women) is a word that comes from the Greek and means "first moon."

If in the past this was like that, because now no?

Apparently over time women (and men) have separated from nature and the earth. The use of the contraceptive pill, the contamination, the food full of chemistry, the disconnection of the woman with her body and with her sexuality, etc. have done that the moon has stopped influencing As it did before, or what is the same, the woman has stopped being affected by the influence of the moon.

I have also read in this regard that when women live in natural environments their ovulation tends to occur during the full moon and the ruler in the dark phase of the moon, as I have commented above. I cannot assure you, because I do not know any woman who lives in a natural environment that can confirm it to me.

Perhaps for these reasons the lunar calendar can be useful for some women and is at the same time nonsense for others.

Will it be true? I think we'll never know if it really ever happened.

I leave you the March calendar:

The cycle changes They will be the following:

• Waning cycle: Day 7 at 15:43 h. • New moon: Day 15 at 9:02 p.m. • Increasing cycle: Day 23 at 11:01 a.m. • Full moon: Day 30 at 02:27 h.
