» That's an interesting question. Let's try it this way: A pregnancy lasts an average of 268 days. If we subtract 268 days from the day of your birth (09.11.1996), we get the 09.11.1996. However, this statement is not very meaningful, since only 3% of pregnant women actually give birth after 268 days. Most pregnant women give birth within a time window of 10 days from the actual due date. Therefore, you were conceived between 30.10.1996 and 19.11.1996. Ask your parents – they might still know. 😉
