January favourite month for getting pregnant in Abu Dhabi

A study released by  Statistics Centre Abu Dhabi (Scad) as part of its 'Demographic Studies’ series shows that February-March is the time that most babies born in the emirate are likely to have been conceived. According to the study, which looked at birth patterns in Abu Dhabi for the year 2010, the number of births in October was the highest, accounting for 9.3 per cent of all births during that year. Which means most of the babies are conceived in the first quarter of the year? The Scad report also reveal that there were 29,528 ‘live’ births in Abu Dhabi in 2010, compared with 23,974 in 2001, a rise of 23.2 per cent. In 2010, Emirati births made up 46.2 per cent of the total in the emirate. For the Abu Dhabi region, Abu Dhabi accounted for the largest percentage (53.4 per cent) of total citizen births, followed by Al Ain Region at 43.1 per cent, and Al Gharbia region at 3.5 per cent.
