a friend of mine has hers on boxing day and she hates it one lot of presents and she feels like its not her birthday

My DD was one year old yesterday.I spent all of last Christmas day in labour..It was certainly diferent anyway!Im not convinced Boxing Day is a great day to have a birthday as everyone is doing family stuff and is hungover from Christmas etc..maybe she will have two birthdays like the queen instead-she can decide when she's older I guess..

my ds's is Christmas Eve.
he has a special day, I just hate the fact its a year until he has anything else, but at this stage he is so excited at everyone elses birthday!! I also put alot of his presants away and get them out later in the year..

Hi my ds now 4 was born xmas eve.dd23rd.Was a bit of ahorrendous experience emotionally as having 2 older kids.Has made me more organised now though.Xmas eve is his b'day and not xmas in our house until about 7pm.Think I will forever feel the guilt about this.Have thrown him a party every year day before.You'll be surprised how many presents he has had wrappedin xmas paper...rather annoying.
Know someone who's ds born xmas day ,friend bought a pair of slippers for him,1 wrapped in xmas paper the other in b'day paper.
I will say I am glad my ds is born before xmas and not just after as I fear his b'day might get lost somewhere,at least now,he has presents first before anyone else.

auntymandy · 11/01/2007 09:52

my ds was 4 on Christmas eve aswell.

viclb76 · 11/01/2007 10:00

Hi auntymandy, how do find it?

auntymandy · 11/01/2007 10:11

well so far its ok. It means he knows when his birthday is!!! It takes him over a week to open all his pressies though!!!
Expensive time of year though..my birthday is 1st Jan and ds1 6th Jan!

I work w/someone who was born on Xmas day.

His name is Noel.

Jimjams2 · 11/01/2007 10:12

My mum.

I used to have my party on xmas eve. Now it's an advantage as I can forget how old I am and ignore it.
