We stood in the little room in Edinburgh Castle where Mary, Queen of Scots gave birth to James VI, after a really, really prolonged labor...something like 2 weeks! How is that even possible? At least there was a window.

The window (and even the keyholes!) would have been covered. No natural light. This, if course, was to ensure a male heir, because it was still belived that the baby's gender was determined at the moment of birth.
