According to Time, baby fever – a state of ‘inexplicable urge to make or be around babies’ - is a real emotion.
Considering that “many people think they want to have children because they are supposed to” in a survey conducted by Sandra Brase on the subject, it is no wonder that news of new-borns captivates large swathes of the population – male or female.
