    Looks off. Isn’t it more the days of conception rather birthday? It’s rather lucky that they are so many babies on feb14, exactly on Valentine days

      peak just before and after Christmas would indicate that it’s day of birth, since hospitals work with reduced capacity on these days and induced births or c-sections will not happen then unless it’s an emergency.

      why so many births are on 14.02. is a mystery to me.

        Best guess seems to be choice of day to induce labor within a given window. A lot of people, if given a window of Feb 7th through 21st or something, will choose the 14th for Valentine’s Day
