To think 3 friends having babies within a month is a pregnancy pact?

[CowOverMoon]

So I know of 3 women, all in long term relationships, who are due (first child for each of them) within a few weeks of each other. They are a close group and do everything together. Does this seem like a pregnancy pact? Or just very fortuitous timing?

A close friend and I had our boys weeks apart. Completely coincidental.

Maybe they all went to the same crossroads at midnight and made a pact with a demon.

Probably just a coincidence.

I'm Irish and the amount of people I know expecting a baby in December is huge.

St Patrick's Day (March 17th) was a double Bank Holiday this year!!!!

A friend of mine had a baby a week before her best friend. It must have had a lot to do with chance because she was trying for a while. I don't think pregnancy pacts can be a thing!

Myself and a v close friend were due within a couple of weeks of each other. Not planned.
in the end I had an early m/c and she delivered at 36 weeks. I subsequently got pregnant within 3 months and our DCs have grown up together (5 months apart, they are now young adults).

my sister in law gave birth in July in august and my other sister in law in September by pure chance

One has probably said "we've decided to start TTC" and the others have gone home and said "Ooh Lucy and Matt are trying for a baby, shall we start trying too?". DH has a close family member who always seems to have to get pregnant if someone else does.

That or its coincidence. When I had DD, it seemed like every one of my friends, family members and colleagues were all pregnant. There were babies everywhere.
