Your birth month can impact the rest of your life, and not just on your birthday.
Scientists and statisticians have found that birth months affect everything from chosen career to attitude.
For instance, babies born in July are generally more optimistic through life. They're also more likely to have vision problems.
“It seems absurd the month in which you are born can affect life chances, but how long you live, how tall you are, how well you do at school, your body mass index as an adult, your morning-versus-evening preference and how likely you are to develop a range of diseases are all correlated to some extent with the time of year in which you emerge from the womb,” Russell Foster, an Oxford University scientist, told the Telegraph.
