August, specifically, is the peak month for hospital maternity wards.

When are most babies conceived in Michigan?

For the mathematicians that already solved for a nine-month pregnancy, kudos to you. For the rest of us, let's put it in perspective:

November and December are the most popular months for conception in Michigan. Maybe that's not a surprise for a few reasons:

• Less daylight makes you feel like staying in.
• It gets colder very quickly in the fall months. People try to keep warm to save money on the heating bill. Maybe a few conceptions happen, too?
• The holiday season makes some people feel more "in the mood" to create a family.
• Maybe college & pro football tailgating accounts for a few conceptions?
• It's possible, people are planning to conceive at this time. So, their children will have summer birthdays?

If you're planning, or not, to have kids -- you've been warned. The cold-weather conception data shows winter is coming.
