In case you hadn’t heard, today – January 2 – is National Baby-Making Day making this week National Baby making week!

That’s right, for couples looking to conceive, today is apparently the day to get down to business.

Most births actually happen across September and October, making the Christmas and New Year holiday period the most popular time to fall pregnant.

And if you want to get really specific, a study has suggested that a lot of couples hoping to cook up some offspring actually make love at 10.36pm on this most favoured day of conception.

”As long as you have fun trying, it’s always worth giving it a go.”

There you have it! Happy Baby-Making Day and good luck to all the couples out there!
