I'm so excited, there are so many babies on the way at the moment. I'm 18 weeks, a close friend & a girl I grew up with are both also 18 weeks. An ex colleague who I remained friends with is 20 weeks as well as a girl I used to go to school with. My brother & step brothers babies are due at the start of January a week apart! This means I can buy boys or girls things,1 of them is having a boy & at least one of the rest of us will have a girl! Does anyone else know lots of babies due soon?

I work in a team of 18. 4 women and 2 men will have new babies before Christmas. Something in the water!

I've had 6 mates announce pregnancies recently, and I'm due in dec (me and 1 other I know we're trying for over a year) def something in the water!

We haven't announced pregnancy to friends yet, but four friends, all of whom we know in different circles, have announced that they're expecting babies earlier in December. It's absolutely crazy!

I hope my mum friends get pregnant soon as I'm the only one pregnant with no 2 as far as I know

I have got 15 pregnant friends at the moment. It is bonkers! Actually 13 as 2 just had their babies. My dad says I am just noticing it more, and I am sure there is an element of truth to that, but does also feel like there is an epidemic!

Including myself, there's six of us. And my sister just had a baby boy!!

Think its common in an economic downturn/depression, although seems a bit illogical to me (& yes, I'm 19wks so I'm just as bad!) "My job is at risk, so have a/another baby"!!! Apparently its to do with not going out so much & having cosy nights in or something..Grin.

Wonder if Christian Grey has anything to do with it?
