📊 Birthday Stats

Birth-month trend

August a high-birth season

Being born in August falls in a high-birth season for births.

In the Northern Hemisphere, more conceptions happen in late autumn–winter, so births cluster in summer–early autumn (around September) about nine months later. February has the fewest.
