Generally, February has the lowest number of births in the United States.
While this pattern holds true for many years, there can be slight variations due to factors like:
-
Leap years: February has an extra day in leap years, which can slightly increase the birth count.
-
Cultural and religious influences: Some cultures or religions may have specific beliefs or practices that influence birth timing.
-
Seasonal variations: Weather conditions or other seasonal factors might play a role in birth rates.
However, the consistent trend of fewer births in February suggests that it is the month with the lowest birth rate overall.
