I feel like I might be making a huge mistake here, and pre-emptively am feeling stupid. But surely it's December not January?
I clock that huge amount of September births to Christmas conceptions.
Edit:
Since the average pregnancy lasts 40 weeks (260 days) with the top birth dates being 9-15th September (253-259 days into the year) you can get that a lot of those conceptions will have been 25th dec - 1st jan.
Unless I've made some mistakes there I'd say that that huge cluster of births is almost certainly Christmas/new year conceptions.
Yes. The article also said that conceptions were highest during Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's.
They should do one for military babies, which are very often conceived right after hubby gets home after being deployed a while. Contrarian that I seem to be, my recollection is that my two sons were both conceived right before hubby went away. I always found it funny that, for me, conception occured during times when there generally wasn't much sex on the radar.

With 9/16 being the most common birthday, does that make ~January 16th the most common fornication day? Why would that be?
"I love you honey - I promise to make love to you more in the new year!"
