The Phases of the Moon do notInfluence the Births: It is a Myth
Some say that just as the moon has an effect on the tides; it also has on the people, that we are composed mostly of water, and also on the births of the babies since they inhabit an aqueous medium, the amniotic fluid.
Under that premise, there are those who are guided by the lunar calendar to predict the date of birth. It is believed that in full moon there are more births, or that the days of a change of cycle predispose to that there are more deliveries, but in reality, they are only beliefs.
Several studies have grounded the theory of the influence of the lunar phases in childbirths and a recent one at the hospital of Manises confirms it again. There is no scientific basis. It's a myth.
