Full Moon ?

Well tonight's a full moon & I've heard & read that full moons tend to bring on labor. I've even heard my dr & nurses at the hospital say they are packed full when there's a full moon. And I've read plenty articles about how there's a good chance there's some truth to it. My dad was even born on a full moon. Since I'm already 38w4d, 4-5cm, 90% effaced, & have had some mild contractions & cramping I'm really really hoping tonight could be the night. What do you ladies think?

I've been having cramping all throughout the day along with some minor contractions. Really hoping this will be it & that things will get going tonight! :) And it's also snowing some right now & is supposed to rain tonight which is also supposed to bring on labor! Hoping & praying it'll get things going & that I'll get to meet my sweet baby boy soon!!
