A study was conducted to find if there's a relationship between life expectancy and season of birth and the results came back bearing good news for people born in December. According to data, most people who live for more than 100 years, were born in the last month of the year. So, if you are a December baby, or have a baby who was born in December, know that you're (or they're) gonna be around for quite a long time!

And, if you are wondering what the reason is behind this, we have the answer. According to another piece of research, people born in December sleep better and easier when compared to others. Maybe since they are born with fireworks and so much light around, they learn to not bother with the external factors and just focus on getting some good sleep. Just a guess!

A more scientific reason behind it could be this - they are healthier. According to a study, December babies have fewer chances of suffering from a cardiovascular attack or any other heart-related problem when compared to people born in other months. It seems like being born in December is as good as hitting the jackpot!

And, the list goes on. Apparently, winter babies are friendlier and go through fewer mood swings. They are able to control their emotions and temper better than people born in the other months. They are also the youngest in school, which automatically makes them smarter than all the others. Go, December babies!
