Birthday coincidence

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

My husband and I found out that we were born in the same hospital, by the same doctor, in the same week. We are 6 days apart. AND, I worked with a lady who has a daughter that I share a birthday with; we were born on the same day, in the same hospital, by the same doctor. And my mom and the lady I worked with both described each other as their hospital roommate. I also share a birthday with my aunt and a cousin. My birthday is August 29. I also had my son 3 weeks early and delivered him on my mom's birthday which is on Christmas. So we celebrate mom and my son and Christmas all in the same day!
