Hi 😊
Me and my husband are trying for baby number 4 and I get my coil out on the 8th 😬 but if I get pregnant in Jan or feb that's a October or November baby, and we're worrying about it being quite close to Christmas and our two youngest birthdays (August and September). Are we being ridiculous? How do some of you ladies deal with birthdays around Christmas and siblings birthdays? Xx

In the nicest possible way, yes you’re being ridiculous. I’d be more concerned about birthdays jumped together (expensive if all fall close to each other) and be August baby being the youngest in school terms.

Have a mid November birthday and its perfectly fine! Christmas still feels ages away despite stuff being in shops

Besides.. you don’t know when you’ll fall pregnant but best of luck with it! X

Not a larger family and I really don't want to sound like a bitch but DS birthday is mid Dec and until recently I was pregnant with DC2 and was so happy that their birthdays would be pretty much 6 months apart. Needless to say that was a silly thing to think.

DS birthday isn't over shadowed by Christmas we just plan well and do Christmassy bits at different times, we do end up with appt of prestns in Dec though.

Good luck TTC and don't worry if you are already worrying, if it does fall then you'll cope and make separate events.
