What months were your children born?

[NationalCervix]

I've got three DCs - May, August and November, so perfectly spread out. Even the dates pretty much match up.

Only now I'm totally fixated on sticking to this "sequence" ie having a February baby ... But that would mean waiting till May to ttc!

So do any of you have DCs with close birthdays? Does it work out ok? Am how do I stop overthinking this?!

[BeautifulLiar]

Thank you... jealous of your seven!

[Levismum]

Congratulations!

I should have planned mine better!

3 in February.
1 in June.
2 in September.

Good luck op. Update us again!

[BeautifulLiar]

Thanks levismum. Will definitely keep this updated. I'm hoping it's born on either Feb 29th or 9th March as my other's birthdays are 29, 9, 29 but I doubt I'll get it that specific!

Can't keep wondering whether it'll be a boy or a girl, either. I haf a boy first, then two girls, but only the girls are with DH, so I know everyone will say it'll be another girl! Surely it's 50/50?! I don't mind either way, anyway.

[welshmammy2009]

February, March, May, June, November and December

[AWhistlingWoman]

May, August and November here too. Congratulations OP! I know I would kind of want a 'winter' baby too if I had another

[BeautifulLiar]

Thanks Whistling... and how odd! I like how it spells out 'Man' and we all have different star signs!

[happygirl87]

I did a bday chart recently for my family and ILs- mine and DHs parents, siblings and their spouses, children, nieces/nephews and living grandparents - ie three generations, came to about 30 people. There were 2-3 bday in each month - as you'd expect- but NONE in August. Do most people not TTC in the run up to Christmas?!

[NotMrsTumble]

April, July and end Sept. [smug emoticon] No planning around birth dates other than school year cut off and school admission proceedures for dc2 (and that was over-thinking things)

[bruffin]

Mine and the 2 dcs are all within 7 days in September and dh is august. I had PE with DS so they started inducing him at 6.30am on my birthday but he didnt turn up for another 2 days. DD wasn't due until October but she decided that she needed out at 37 weeks.

[GlitzAndGigglesx]

March, July & July. The twins were due tomorrow which would've given us the same birth month, but they decided to come 18 days early!

[Brambles35]

Both October. I wanted autumn babies to give them the best chance at school. (Being one of the eldest in the year). My forward planning has really helped as my DS has developmental delays (about 6 months) so if he doesn't catch up by the time he goes to school it doesn't matter as he will be developmentally the same as some in his year. If he was a summer baby and 6 month delay I think he would struggle far more.

Our birthdays start in June and end in January. There are, Inc DH and I, 2 in June, 2 in July, 2 in August, 1 in September, 1 in October, 1 in November, 1 in December and 1 in January.

[HerRoyalNotness]

worried. I find that amazing as none of yours were born in the same mth

Mine are June, Aug, Oct (shld have been Feb)

[worriedmother7787]

Well HerRoyalNotness like one of yours DC4 was meant to be born january. I tried to plan them so they had there own month they're all under 18 as well! and close in age

[Missdee2014]

In our house we have dd1 feb, dp March, dd2 April and I'm May. Dc3 due March 10 days after her/his daddy's birthday!

[Walkingonsunshine00]

My mum and auntie have same dates in different order - one is 07/08 and the other is 08/07!

[FiveHoursSleep]

We only have 4 but have poor family planning skills. DD1 was born a week before Xmas, DS 10 days after Xmas, and DD3 at the end of January.
DD2 was born in the middle of July.
I have managed to have them on the 5th, 15th, 18th and 28th days of various months though, which pleases me :)

[Havetobecrazytolivehere]

Not sure what happened with mine! The more I tried to plan them the more Sod's law clumped them together! So I have
March - dd2
April -DH
May - dd1
June -ds1
July - "where's the cake mum"?
Now ttc #4 and avoiding feb to July at all costs lol!

[BeauticianNotMagician81]

We have a Christmas Eve birthday here and then two born in May.
