interesting.

anyone born on these days?

As it turns out, Christmas birthdays are not only unfortunate -- they're also almost uniquely uncommon. In fact, December 25 is the least common birthday out of all the days of the year save the one that doesn't even occur annually -- February 29. According to data put together by Harvard's Amitabh Chandra, which the New York Times published in raw form in 2006, it was the least common birth date for more than two decades in the late 20th century; September 16 comes in at the other end of the spectrum, as the most common date for babies to be born.

And,


The biggest day
The most popular day for babies to make their entrance is Tuesday, followed by Monday. Sunday is the slowest day, with 35.1 fewer births than average. Scheduled c-sections and induced labors have a big influence on the fact that far fewer babies are born on the weekend, but spontaneous (non-scheduled) deliveries occur less often on the weekend too.
The biggest month
In 2010 more newborns arrived in September than in any other month. The second, third, and fourth most popular birthday months were August, June, and July, in that order.

My son missed leap day by like 2 hrs. So sad  

I wonder if September 16th is because of New Years celebrations gone wrong...

I was so close to being born on Christmas! December 23rd, I'm sooo glad I didn't go two more days.

Doesnt surprise me that xmas is the least popular because doctors are always away and probably avoid inductions and csections that week.

oh wow

my son was born Tuesday Sept. 13.... by c-section!

Ha. I was born on christmas eve. Smurf that smurf lol. Everytime im checking in somewhere, dmv, doctors I get the same question about does it suck? Yes, it sucks major dick. I never really had a normal birthday prty, it was basically overshadowed by the holidays and I always got one gift for both. Which obviously mattered as a kid lol.
