Unusual "motherly" information
81% of women 40 to 44 years old are mothers. In 1980, 90 percent of women in that age group were mothers.
67% of women in Kentucky, ages 15 to 44, are mothers. This is among the highest rates in the nation. The national average is 57 percent.
11% of women end their childbearing years with four or more children, compared with 36 percent in 1976.
24.8 is the median age of women when they give birth for the first time - meaning one-half are above this age and one-half are below. The median age has risen nearly three years since 1970.
A woman becomes pregnant most easily at the age of eighteen or nineteen, with little real change until the mid twenties. There is then a slow decline to age thirty-five, a sharper decline to age forty-five and a very rapid decline as the women nears menopause.
The odds of a woman delivering twins is 1-in-33. Her odds of having triplets or other multiple births was approximately 1-in-539.
In humans, most multiple births involve twins - about once in every thirty-three births. By contrast, triplets naturally occur about once in every 7900 births and quadruplets about once in every 705,000 births.
August is the most popular month in which to have a baby, with more than 360,000 births taking place that month in 2001.
Tuesday is the most popular day of the week in which to have a baby, with an average of more than 12,000 births taking place on Tuesdays during 2001.

It's quite an accomplishment for me. I've posted now for a little while, but had givin up on trying to post some pictures. Some of my best pictures that I've saved from the internet, I found right here in FR.
42.8% of statistics are made up on the spot.
LONDON (Reuters) - More than 60 percent of Britons use items such as screwdrivers, scissors and earrings to remove food from between their teeth, according to a survey published Friday.
The National Dental Survey found that, when it came to oral hygiene, people used whatever was close to hand to pick their teeth.
More than 60 percent questioned by the British Dental Health Foundation said they used makeshift items, including knives, keys, needles and forks.
The survey also found that 23 percent of people chose to leave food stuck between their teeth, increasing the risk of gum disease and bad breath, according to the foundation which promotes oral health.

An Amish boy and his father were in an office building. They were amazed
by almost everything they saw, but especially by two shiny, silver walls that
could move apart and then slide back together again.
The boy asked, "What is this Father?"
The father (never having seen an elevator) responded, "Son, I have
never seen anything like this in my life, I don't know what it is."
While the boy and his father were watching with amazement, a fat old
lady with a cane stepped up to the moving walls and pressed a
button. The walls opened and the old lady hobbled into a small room.
The walls closed and the boy and his father watched the small
circular numbers above the walls light up sequentially. They continued
to watch until it reached the last number and then the numbers began
to light in the reverse order.
Finally the walls opened up again and a gorgeous, tall 24-year-old blonde
stepped out.
The father said quietly to his son...
"Go get your mother."
That was so beautiful.
