Came across this latin epression amongst some baptisms. Anyone out there have a translation?

if its in with registers it usually means "Same day" but can mean that the children were baptised at the same time or one after another.

Badger, That really is a fascinating link. well done.
Ithink the original quote " codem die" may very well mean the same day but not too sure. Keep looking folks.
