Je, unashiriki mwezi wako wa kuzaliwa na mama au mtoto wako? Ni jambo la kawaida la kushangaza, kulingana na utafiti mpya wa hivi majuzi ambao ulifichua mifumo katika msimu wa kuzaliwa kwa binadamu. Inatokea kwamba wanawake wana uwezekano mkubwa wa kupata watoto katika mwezi sawa na kuzaliwa kwao, na kuzaliwa ndani ya familia za karibu huwa na makundi ndani ya mwezi fulani.<\/p>\n

Watafiti walifanya matokeo baada ya kutathmini data kutoka kwa watoto zaidi ya milioni 10 waliojifungua nchini Ufaransa na Uhispania - wote waliozaliwa kutoka 1980 hadi 1983 na kutoka 2016 hadi 2019 nchini Uhispania, na waliozaliwa wote kutoka 2000 hadi 2003 na kutoka 2010 hadi 2013 nchini Ufaransa. Matokeo yalichapishwa katika jarida<\/a> Tafiti za Idadi ya Watu.<\/p>\n

\u201cMatokeo yetu yalionyesha kuwepo kwa mfanano si tu kati ya misimu ya kuzaliwa kwa wazazi na watoto bali pia kati ya misimu ya kuzaliwa kwa wazazi wawili, na kati ya misimu ya kuzaliwa ya ndugu walio karibu; hii inaelezea kwa kiasi uthabiti wa mifumo ya msimu kwa wakati," watafiti waliandika.<\/p>\n

Waliona kwamba watoto wanaozaliwa katika nchi fulani hufuata mtindo fulani, ambapo nyakati fulani za mwaka huwa na watoto wengi zaidi kuliko wengine. Tofauti hii ya msimu katika kiwango cha kuzaliwa kwa binadamu inajulikana kama msimu wa kuzaliwa.<\/p>\n

Hata hivyo, wakati data ya kuzaliwa ilipangwa kulingana na mwezi wa kuzaliwa kwa mama, watafiti hawakuona muundo uliotarajiwa. Badala yake, kulikuwa na ongezeko la uzazi mwezi Januari kati ya kundi la akina mama waliozaliwa Januari na kadhalika. Kulikuwa na uzazi 4.6% zaidi ya ilivyotarajiwa ambapo mama na mtoto walishiriki mwezi mmoja wa kuzaliwa. Matokeo yalikuwa thabiti katika nchi zote mbili na vipindi vyote vinne vya muda vilichunguzwa kwa utafiti.<\/p>\n

"Ilikuwa pia kwa ndugu (kulikuwa na kuzaliwa kwa 12.1% zaidi kuliko ilivyotarajiwa ambapo ndugu wa karibu walizaliwa mwezi huo huo wa kuzaliwa), wazazi wenye mwezi huo wa kuzaliwa (waliozaliwa 4.41 TP3T zaidi) na wakati mtoto alizaliwa sawa. mwezi kama baba yao (2% kuzaliwa zaidi)," watafiti walisema katika taarifa ya habari<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This seasonal variation in human birth rate is known as birth seasonality.However, when the birth data was grouped based on the month of birth of the mothers, the researchers did not see the expected pattern. Instead, there was a spike in births in January among the group of mothers born in January and so on.

Factors such as the availability of food and exposure to sunlight affect a person's fertility. People with similar backgrounds are known to pair up and are more likely to give birth at certain times of the year, researchers explained."What could cause the higher probabilities of family members being born in the same season? The potential explanations seem to be both social and biological," said study author Adela Recio Alcaide, an epidemiologist at the University of Alcala."We discuss the tendency of family members to be born in the same season as the result of two facts: first, that different socio-demographic groups show differentiated birth patterns and, second, that relatives share socio-demographic features. Finally, we conclude that birth season is related to family characteristics and that these should be controlled for when assessing birth-month effects on subsequent social\/health outcomes," the researchers noted.A limitation of the study is that the analysis assumes an "independence of outcomes," but researchers caution that there is a "dependence of the outcomes within families," which could have affected the findings. However, when the team repeated the analysis after adjusting for this factor, the results were very similar.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/sw\/akina-mama-wengi-na-watoto-wao-hushiriki-mwezi-mmoja-wa-kuzaliwa-hapa-ni-kwanini\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/urbancarezanzibar\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-12-15T06:59:10+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/many-mothers-and-their-children-share-same-birthday-month-heres-why.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1024\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1024\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"dakika 3\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/urbancare.clinic\\\/many-mothers-and-their-children-share-same-birthday-month-heres-why\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/urbancare.clinic\\\/many-mothers-and-their-children-share-same-birthday-month-heres-why\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Urban Care Clinic\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/urbancare.clinic\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/a304a61bcf298680ee41e2e9ae193930\"},\"headline\":\"Many Mothers And Their Children Share Same Birthday Month;
