First Comes Love, Then Comes . . .
Perhaps as a result of Valentine’s Day romance, more pregnancy and infertility test kits are sold approximately six weeks after Valentine’s Day than at any other time of the year. Consumers spend more than $15 million3 on pregnancy and infertility test kits during the second, third and fourth weeks of March, with the third week of March ranking number one4 in sales.
Oddly enough though many of those test must be coming up false because there are still more babies born in August than any other month.
Evidently Thanksgiving is a sexier holiday than Valentine’s Day.
Incidentally, the most popular day of the week to be born since 1990 has been Tuesday.
