Numbers are interesting indeed. However, one needs to account for the fact that the number of people can`t just be divided by 365 days. More people are born on certain days. Less people are born on other days. For example, out of 365 million people it is unlikely that for each day of the year there will be one million people sharing the same birthday.

When and where babies arrive

Super Tuesday: The most popular day for babies to make their entrances? It`s still Tuesday, which boasted more than 13,000 births on average in 2003. That`s about 16 percent more babies than on any other day of the week. Saturday is the slowest day, with an average of about 7,500 births (in part because doctors don`t schedule c-sections and inductions on weekends).

Some (babies) like it hot: More newborns arrive in the late summer/early fall months of July, August, and September than any other time of the year. Paul Sutton, a demographer for the CDC`s National Center for Health Statistics, says it makes sense if you think about what happens nine months earlier in most of the country — the weather gets colder and people spend more time indoors with their sweeties. Also, some people plan births to coincide with summer vacations, especially teachers and other folks who get summers off. February had the fewest birthdays in 2003: about 307,000.
