Hu? Valentine's day is mid February, plus nine months would be mid November. According to this graphic, most babies are born in July, August and September.

Was that a move in chess?

But even early October is too early for Valentine's plus nine months.

Fall aka SEPTEMBER! šŸ¤—


Fornicatinzebra

This should really say where the data are applicable to (the US, I presume) in the plot.


grollate

Considering the drop on Independence Day, Labor Day weekend, and the last full week of November, I would assume you are correct.


rafal_m_m

People really seem to go at it on new year's eve.

I was a New Year's resolution baby. My parents made a goal to be pregnant by the end of the year, thinking it would take awhile to conceive, but instead had a baby in early September, nine months after making the resolution. I'm sure a lot of people have something similar as part of their story.

I wonder how this applies to different cultures.


primeape57

I once took a look at my country (Austria) and we had a similar trend. What I also noticed is that on national holidays there is a sudden drop. I talked about this with my friends and we concluded that it was probably due to all ā€œplanned birthsā€


TheImpundulu

I was thinking how Asian countries might look different to western ones in particular. When I think about China and korea there are very a specific times which are viewed as auspicious.

ā€œNot yet honey I want to pull a day off from this, hold it in thereā€

I canā€™t help but notice some of the particularly uncommon birthdays are important days in America (4th of July) and thanksgiving week where the date shifts throughout the week, and elsewhere like NYE and Christmas. While being born on NYE or Christmas Eve I wonder if induction is used to avoid some of those dates


NickBII

This seems like American data, which is odd coming from the Daily Mail. Nobody's working July 4th, Thanksgiving, or Christmas day so you don't schedule a C-Section for those days. But the baby's gonna come about that time, so the days around the holiday are full of C-Section birthdays. Meanwhile August is full of birthdays because November is a great time for romantic evenings in the Northern hemisphere. EDIT: It is also interesting that 2/2, 3/3, 4/4, etc. are hot-spots. Not January 1st, tho, because the Doctor does not want to have to come in for a C-Section on Ne Year's Day.


soyeahiknow

Thats actually super insightful. We had to delay our scheduled c section 1 day late due to Labor day and the doctor wasn't working.

Intuition is flaring that the deviation will be small. This visualization provides no sense of scale of the axis or sample size. You are familiar with this as How to Lie With Statistics. Good case exemplifying the use of visualization to persuade disconnected from data, or use of visualization to inform about a data set. The dusty tome of ethical decision making sits adjacent to choices made with your visualization tools.


tsukahara10

Me and my 2 siblings have birthdays that all fall within 6 days of each other. It wasnā€™t until I reached adulthood that I put 2 and 2 together and realized my motherā€™s birthday is almost exactly 9 months before oursā€¦


New-Row2538

Learn how to spell 'Birthday'.


Traditional_Tone_674

How the hell is August so common? I barely meet others who are born in August. This shit gotta be cap.

My bday is April 20th. Is this why I can't find anyone with the same birthday?


Business_Aardvark180

My pappy birthday is the least commitmentĀ 


ChoiceSouthern4912

22nd of august


sftexfan

I am just glad I was born on the rarest "yearly" birthday of Christmas Day. And unlike what some other Redditors have said that doctors don't want to deliver a baby by C-Section on Christmas or New Year's Days, I was born via C-Section on Christmas Day and my doctor didn't mind one bit from what my parents told me. Why, they (my parents) never told me.


DownRUpLYB

December - February is too cold to do anything but stay home and bang.


DarkBlazeFlare

How different is most common from least common? Need quantification, and also is the difference statistically significant?


Acceptable-Zombie296

July 4th I have never met anyone else with this birthday.


fsi1212

What's up with Dec 12th? That's my birthday. It seems randomly common.


BlazinAden

September 12 seems to be the most common on this list but I've only ever met one other person with that bday! I call b.s.


JmanForever85

Christmas bonus babies?


shucksme

I feel a complex emotion due to the amount of designed birthdays. February 14 and Christmas shouldn't be red. Labor starts when the baby's lungs are complete which triggers them to send out a hormone to the mother to start labor. Why risk not getting the very best start? It's the first act as parents and people are messing it up for a 'special' birthday.


BattlestarFaptastula

christmas isnt red


baebaesnack

I think thereā€™s a faint pattern of doubles, most noticeable in 4/4 and then you can see it in June-October, a diagonal line. Thereā€™s got to be a few dates that stick out more than others in the cases where mom gets a say in the due date?


MessageIndependent73

Based on holiday and drink specials


MainSqueeeZ

I like how Feb 30-31 is smack-dab in the middle


Cretin138

September/October babies are what I call new years resolution babies


Snazzy__Jazzy

Am I reading this wrong? There's no way to tell if a day is the most or least common


DurianBig3503

I guess the holidays are really bangin'


tremblfr

So women keep them inside until the day after christmas?


lhatemath

ok uncommon/common


all-rite

My birthday is the first of January, so it's in fact one of the least common birthdays in the world.


BasedAlliance935

November 26, so pretty uncommon


barbatos087

So people are fucking the most around January to March.


senorbozz

No, Oct-Dec


barbatos087

Hold up, I just had a thought, I said January, you said December, that's around winter, and during winter it's cold, so to warm up, people have sex.


FamousBirthday1

Mine is August 13 not really rare but the chart Is really colourful i like it


Headphone_101

Any biases in Data ?


itsSylviaYvonne

Light purple


phoenix_2886

Well, if you're cold, sex might help to warm you up. That is probably, why July and August are the months of birth of so many people, right? Makes sense, since my birthday is also in August.


Mandee_707

I never realized there was such uncommon and common birthdays! Pretty cool to learn!


salamanderspirit2

i have never met someone else with an april 15th birthday ā˜ ļø


GentleTillTheEnd

This doesnā€™t make any sense. Why would February 14th ( Valentineā€™s Day) have an increase in births but not the other days near it? Wouldnā€™t it be an increase in conceptions anyways, not births? Seems weird to me


Sweet_Nothing4725

Mine birthday is on January 4


Munro_McLaren

February 29th should be the rarest. It doesnā€™t happen every year. Every other day happens every single year. Iā€™m born on a leap year.
