Like is the birthaday 9 months after september 11, 2001 a rare birthday?
I’ve done no research, but I highly doubt it.
We shouldn’t expect any change in people’s activity before the 11th, because it was a surprise. I imagine there were quite a few people who weren’t “in the mood” on the 11th, but how long would that last? Possibly a while in NYC, but I’m betting most of the people Midwest got their libido back in a day or two.
Considering that pregnancy isn’t an exact science, and that a child conceived a week before or after 9-11 could have born exactly 9 months after 9-11, I don’t think we’d see a major drop in births around that time. Maybe a little, but probably nothing significant.
i have the strong feeling they want to mock us by publishing it as pdf, the data in columns. like come on! is there a worse format?
just from looking at it i’m searching for a reason why the first monday in september is low on births both in 2001 and 2002?
i feel like you would have to look at more years than those two to remove seasonal effects that take place every year.
You should be looking at June birthdays. Those are people conceived in Sept.
September birthdays are the result of December holiday parties. Trust me, I have 3 kids with Sept birthdays.
