Here's a good trivia question. Which date has the fewest births each year? - David Dec 9, 17:19 57
- Sidenote: 9 of the 10 most popular birth dates are in September and thereby fall in line with the gestation period from the 12 Days of Christmas. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:46 5

  - Orthodox or Schismatic? -- nm - Berylorian Dec 9, 17:47 3
    - Don't be weird. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:49 2
      - Need I remind you that you're the one talking about gestation periods and songs? My point was just that the Orthox church is on the Julian calendar. 😀 - Berylorian Dec 9, 17:55 1
        
        Christmas should be in late September anyway. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:56

      - Yes, it's 366th. On most days, 10,000 people are born in the United States. On Christmas, the average is 6,574. People do NOT want... - David Dec 9, 17:45 4
        
        also part of my thinking would be "days doctors don't want to work". -- nm - Reagen Dec 9, 17:51 3
        
        "days doctors won't schedule cesareans" -- nm - Berylorian Dec 9, 17:52 1
        
        *ding* -- nm - mud Dec 9, 17:56

  - 198th -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:23
- Dec. 31st? -- nm - Krusty Dec 9, 17:21 14
  - 350th, so it's the best guess so far. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:22 13
    - Jan 1st? -- nm - Krusty Dec 9, 17:23 12
      - No, but it *is* 365th. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:23 11
        
        My moms and my daughters b-day. -- nm - zunkskunk Dec 9, 17:54 6
        
        That's legitimately mathematically improbable. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:54 5
        
        But fact! My daughter was 2 1/2 weeks early. - zunkskunk Dec 9, 18:00 3
        
        Wait, I just figured out what you mean... -- nm - zunkskunk Dec 9, 18:03
        
        That's incredible! How many 2000 babies were born before her at the hospital? - David Dec 9, 18:02 1
        
        She was the first. Made the front page of the local newspaper, too! -- nm - zunkskunk Dec 9, 18:04
        
        7,792 births on average with an estimated conception date of 4/10. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:55

        ... -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:51
        
        Ugh! -- nm - Krusty Dec 9, 17:25 1
        
        Right? So close. -- nm - Berylorian Dec 9, 17:37
- Labor Day? -- nm - Max Dec 9, 17:20 1
  - No. Even though the date moves, it trends toward the top half of birthdays. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:22
- February 29th -- nm - Beaker Dec 9, 17:19 1
  - So, that's not the answer, but it's a good guess that will factor into the trivia note at the end. -- nm - David Dec 9, 17:21
