Whats the deal with a full moon and going into labor?
The moon changes the barometric pressure in water due to its gravitational pull. Just as the moon has an effect on the waters on earth which makes it responsible for the tide coming in (high tide) and the tide going out (low tide), it too has an effect on humans, as humans are 75% water. The crime rate is usually higher during a full moon, domestic fights are in greater number, just as women seem to go into labor during the full moon. The gravitational pull from the moon changes the barometric pressure in the woman’s water sac and this change in pressure usually causes it to rupture which result in the women going into labor or the doctor having to induce labor due to the leakage.
