That’s correct, and scheduled C-Sections are also the reason Christmas is the rarest birthday.

  Not the only reason. Time of year also matters a lot for more "natural" reasons. IIRC mid-September is the peak and it goes down on either side, so late December is going to be pretty low anyways. Then you add in C-Sections and it drops to the absolute bottom.

  Tangent but it occurred to me the other day that it takes 9 years before one experiences a birthday on every day of the week. Over the course of a lifetime maybe the dispersal evens out but it seems like some of us are just destined to have more birthdays on the weekend.

    Related: why many calendar "reforms" never catch on: who wants to have their birthday fall on a Tuesday every year of their life ?

  Is December 25th actually rarer than February 29th?

    February 29th may be a working day. December 25th is usually free in Christian countries.

  I ran data for a call center. The day with the lowest volume was July 4th.
