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?!

To update - baby might be born in February after all if I'm induced early! Been having some problems with the placenta, next scan on Wednesday should give a clearer picture...

I didn't plan it, had recurrent miscarriageso, but our due dates would have meant 22, 23rd, 24th of the (same) month birthdays for me and two kids. Lucky dd1 was overdue or three birthdays in three days!

We have 4 and all of their birthdays are within 3 weeks of each other. We just really like making out on holiday Blush

May, June, June and November. Expecting again in May! Having close birthdays (3 within 4 weeks) hasn't been a massive issue but it gets a bit expensive with birthday presents and parties tbh. I read somewhere about some research that suggests that women have more fertile times of year and by and large this seems to right for me! I lost a baby in January last year and he was due in June.

Probably i tend to agree with being more fertile at certain times of year with that my nan had 7 girls in June and 7 boys in January!
