What month were you born?

Our huge RVtravel.com staff was sitting around our giant world headquarters break room, guzzling coffee, gabbing about various things, when the subject arose about birthdays. We wondered if RVers were born pretty much equally throughout the year, each month about the same as another. Okay, we weren’t in a break room because we don’t even have an office and our staff isn’t huge at all, but itty-bitty. But a few of us were talking about this during an online chat.

It turns out, through some quick research, that births do not occur equally throughout the year. They follow a distinct seasonal pattern, with peak months (often July through September in the U.S.) having higher birth rates than others, particularly February, which is the least common due to its shorter length, and being a winter month.

A high number of births in late summer/early autumn suggests a surge in conceptions during the winter months (December/January). Hey, people snuggle more: we all know that! The most common birthday is September 9. The chart below shows the top 10 most popular birthdays, which, as you can see, are almost all in September.

As a former teacher, it didn’t surprise me that September had the highest number of births. What always surprised me was how often out of a class of 30 kids, two of them had the same birth date and it wasn’t always in September.

Any group of 35 or more, 2 will have the same birthday (not year).

This study proves that people have sex regularly throughout the year. I was born in November which makes me a product of Valentine’s Day, my Mom’s birthday or my parent’s anniversary (all within 1 week) which is more special than being some rando baby.

Mine being on the 6th of August appears to have gotten a start on a Cold Minnesota December night! (Probably just trying to keep warm – Hmmm?) Our daughter was born on the 16th of August a year after we were married on the 6th, and our son on the 16th of Dec. the following year.

Do the math. Cold weather, long nights and in my generation smaller houses = babies.
