Sources, method and limits

Source: Statistics Denmark, FODDAG, live births by day, table update of February 12, 2026, open data terms of the publisher. Live births in Denmark as published in the February 12, 2026 update; the publisher may revise recent years. 57,916 births over 366 days; the weekday of each day is taken from the calendar date. One year, one country, one series.

Every figure above comes from the administrative records named here, at the granularity those records publish: a day, a month or a year. Coverage and definitions differ between countries and eras, so two sources are combined only where their documentation states the windows are separate, and the page where that happens says so.
