If at some point you've had an irrepressible, inexplicable urge to make a baby, you may be interested to know there's a term for that — baby fever — and that it's a bona fide physical and emotional phenomenon, according to research in an upcoming issue of the journal Emotion.
Although it may be linked to another baby-craving phenomenon commonly known as the "biological clock," in which women realize their biological baby-making window is dwindling, baby fever isn't specific to women. Men can get all goo-goo-ga-ga too, say a husband-wife team at Kansas State University who first wondered about the sensation after their second child was born.
