How have I only just realised this?

I'm 40.
I've just realised that I was born bang on, to the date, 9 months after my grandmas 50th birthday.
She had a huge party, I've seen the photos.
I was born on my due date.
My parents had a good time didn't they?
Baaaaaaahhhhhhh. Can never look at those photos again.

and same with all those claiming a 25 September or 14 November birthday...They're just wrong!

Read my earlier posts. 9 months to the date of conception is right within about a week, if you use the correct calculations and data.

Furthermore, I know when DS was conceived and I know my ovulation was a few days later. He was born 2 days after the day of the month he was conceived, 9 months later, and he was a week overdue.
It does match to 9 months after conception, or around the week, not to two weeks earlier.

So it's not really a good story, and same with all those claiming a 25 September or 14 November birthday...They're just wrong!

Depends on due date vs birth date. My DD’s birthday is 25th Sept, but she was a week overdue. I know for a fact she was conceived at Xmas because that was the only sex that month!

I’m mid August so am definitely a Christmas party baby Grin

(I was early)

I was born on the 14th September, and mum always said I was 2 weeks late.

It took me until my 20s to realise that I'm a New Year's baby... Blush

I know so many people with birthdays beteen 4th and 10th sep.

OwlLovesTea · 22/01/2021 07:01

Makes sense. People off work, relaxed after christmas, few glasses of babycham.

We do understand that it's not PRECISE. Knowing the week still paints a picture.

My first is a valentine's baby. Born on fireworks night (early). We moved in together on valentine's day, were too knackered to go out and buy condoms and took the risk.

An Ex has 3 brothers. They are all born in the same week exactly 4 years apart!!

Sex. 4 years apart on Bonfire Night! 🤮

I was on holiday when I conceived (mid-june) but my sister is adamant that I conceived because I was celebrating a significant event - which my dd's birthday is exactly 9mths after.

Nope. Definitely 100% on holiday
