00:00If you're in the same boat as me, this stage of pregnancy has you researching anything to naturally induce labor.
00:06Dates? Curb walking? But what about the weather? Can Mother Nature actually move things along?
00:12Here's the deal. Most things you hear, like storms or full moons, total myth.
00:16But extreme heat? That's a little different.
00:18Research shows really hot days can slightly increase your chance of going into labor,
00:23likely because of heat stress and dehydration, which can trigger contractions.
00:26And get this, August is the most common birth month in the U.S., with July and September close behind.
00:32So if you're like me, watching the forecast and timing contractions, hang in there.
00:36Tell me, do you have a weather-related birth story?
