Poll: If you could pick your delivery date...

kt12883 · November 2009

Its so funny It looks like just about everyone wished their due date to be roughly 2 weeks early.

I am the same way. EDD 12/27. DH and I have 12/13 stuck in our brains So that's what we are hoping for!

Leap08 · November 2009

I would love for her to be born the first week of December. That way Thanksgiving is out of the way but Christmas is still weeks off. My EDD is 12/9.

Tinkx123x · November 2009

I wouldn't care what day it was as long as it was 2 weeks after my EDD, I would just like to know the date!

emmyloustu · November 2009

I am due on Christmas Eve and right on time would be ideal. My mom arrives on 12/23 and stays for 2 weeks and I reallllly want her to be here for the birth. If LO comes early, my MIL will be here and I prefer my mom. Plus Christmas is our anniversary and when we got engaged so that works for me

jhoanna.delgado · November 2009

EDD is Jan 27th. I would like the baby to come around 2/10 (sounds good too). My aunt's bday is on the 28th, and I don't want baby to share his bday with anyone. Also, everyone will give me crap b/c they'll be the same sign, and she's not the easiest person to get a long with.

MrsPatterson · November 2009

I would love for the LO to come right as scheduled on Nov. 11 because then I wouldn't have to re-figure my maternity leave dates.

goldenleaves · November 2009

My EDD is December 23rd. If I could choose, I'd pick December 19th. DH has to work that Saturday and hates working Saturdays. It would get him out of it Wink

stephaniedeanne:
Sometime between Christmas and New Years Eve would be nice, my original EDD was 12/31, my current EDD is 1/8.

this...my EDD is jan 8th, too.

IronRangeBride · November 2009

My EDD is 11/25. It would be cool if she was born on 11/22. 22 is a important number in my fam. My mom and dad got married Aug 22nd, I was born on April 22nd, my grandmother's birthday was on June 22nd, she died on Dec 22nd.

If I could choose another date, it would be 11/29. After Thanksgiving, and then I would get my two paid holiday days for T-Day, THEN I would start my maternity leave Smile Plus, I'd be well rested from my long weekend.

Brandi-104 · November 2009

EDD: 12/29/09 If I could choose I would like 12/19/09.... I know that I won't go to my EDD because I have GD so they would like me to have this baby by 39 weeks, but that's so close to Christmas! So that's why I like the 19th, a little earlier and it gives us time to get home and settled before the holiday.

Ashley2785 · November 2009

I would choose Dec 16th- dads birthday. EDD Dec. 23rd

Shawnly82 · November 2009

My EDD is the 11th and I would like her to come anytime before that!! But I dont think its going to happen for me...

rcollier_17 · November 2009

My EDD is Nov 20th and I would love for baby to come Nov 7th.

I have this thing with 7's. They're lucky. My b-day is nov 17th, and then Dominic will be the 7th grandson on my side of the family, born to the 7th daughter in my family (I'm #7 of 9), and completely by accident his first name has 7 letters oh and his last name has 7 letters too, his middle only has 6 though Big Smile So yeah, all these 7's and now we just need to have him on the 7th!

rcollier_17 · November 2009

josefina022:

I would love to have the baby 11/10/09 (what an awesome date of birth to have!), I'm due 11/20/09.

Ooo, I didn't even think about that. Yeah, that would be cool too. I'd take that date.

mgmccauley · November 2009

My EDD is Christmas Day, but I really hope he isn't born that day, Christmas Eve, NYE or New Years Day. I just think having his birthday on a holiday will take away from it being his day. I would love for him to be born about a week early - Dec. 17, 18 or 19. Otherwise, Dec. 29 or 30 would also be good, because they aren't holidays and I love the OB on call those days.

SRose27 · November 2009

I am hoping for mid December or the end of December, I am due January 1st.

duchessII81 · November 2009

I'm down with my EDD (2/3) - as long as I can get home in time for the Super Bowl on 2/7.

Vuja_de · November 2009

My EDD is 1/2 I would love to have the baby on 12/28 (or a couple of days earlier)

lostaspen · November 2009

My EDD is Jan 11/12. I'm hoping for the 10th or 11th for the binary birthdates. DH work is changing insurance at the beginning of the year, so the further into January, the easier it will be to deal with the insurance.

Prinycesa07 · November 2009

I'm due 12/8, I would like 12/1. A week earlier and a week further from christmas. I don't like the month of november, though, for some reason so i'll pick dec. 1st.

Harms80 · November 2009

I love how almost everyone's choice is earlier than due date. I'm due 11/25- was moved up to 11/16 for most of the middle 6 months due to measuring big- but am now measuring back on track for the 25th. I don't know what my due date is!!! Honestly, I'd either like to go for the 16th (cause I'm so uncomfortable) or the 28th (my hubby's bday and I could still see New Moon in the theaters- flame away!).

RaeAnt · November 2009

Hmmm....I had a due date of 12/24, which for Dh family is very meaningful. The matriarch of the family was born 12/24 and just died last year on 12/22. Everyone would get together for a big family dinner/celebration on 12/24 to honor Nan. When we found out we were pg and due on 12/24 everyone started crying and felt Nan had had a hand in it. So, that date would mean a lot to a lot of people.

That said, it is Christmas eve. The hospitals are generally with less staff, Our little guy would be having to "share" his bd with Christmas.. the biggest holiday of the year. I see pros and cons for it.

Then there is 12/19 which is FIL bday. he would totally love to have his first grandchild born on and sharing his bday. However, my mom is only due to arrive from PA...we're in TX..on 12/21. so that kinda throws a wrench in things as to who would watch the dogs and everything while we were in the hospital. We don't really have anyone to do that.

So while i'd love to have him a little earlier....oh his most recent date i was told was actually 12/21.... i think 12/24 wuld mean a lot to a lot of people and be...hate to say it.... most convenient.

jdouglas84 · November 2009

I'm due 12/7, and I would love for LO to be born either the day after Thanksgiving, or on my dad's birthday 12/2.

vernab · November 2009

Dec 12 (two weeks early) or Jan 1 (2 days late.) I just don't want him to be too close to Christmas. Jan 1 is my first choice. I might not care so much in a couple weeks. ; p

waytoe · November 2009

I'd like to have my baby this coming Friday 11/13. My EDD is 11/22.

I'll have everything ready by then, DH can take a long weekend from work, my Mom has that Friday and the weekend off, and the best part? My ILs are leaving for vacation that day for four days, so I won't feel pressured to share LO with them immediately. They actually told us they were going away and jokingly told us not to have the baby while they were gone, and I smiled and nodded, secretly hoping I would!

mscars10s@juno.com · November 2009

I know it's a ways away but my due date is April 2 and I really want that day. My husband and I are in school and that will be the last day of classes for me but he graduates that next week and I think I will be freaking out if I have to sit through his graduation afraid the baby will come.

jenny1980 · November 2009

Due date is 1/3. End of December would be fabulous, but I'm not holding my breath. Everyone in my family goes over due.

nealbl · November 2009

I am due December 11th but will be 37 weeks on November 20th. So i would like to deliver November 20th.

tmahloch · November 2009

My EDD is 1/29, DH bday is 1/24 that would be neat. DH uncle died the week we conceived and his bday is 1/4. It would be ironic if DS would be born that day. I am hoping for 1/18.

Leoane Gago · November 2009

my due date is March 20

I will like April 1

BostonBride26 · November 2009

My Due date is 4/4. I would love for baby to be born on my grandpa's birthday, 3/29. He was the most amazing man and someone I am so proud to have known.

SpartanGirl · November 2009

Thanksgiving day or weekend. My due date is 12/5. I'm hoping for an end of November baby instead of a December baby.

badktty007 · November 2009

i'm due tommorow 11/9/09

but i think that 11/10/09 would be a cool sounding birthday!

shopgirl78 · November 2009

EDD is 1.11.10, I have never gone past 39 wks...

My pick is 1.03.10 or 1.4.10 just to be a bit away from the holidays...that puts me at 39 wks though

Mrs.Clash · November 2009

My EDD was 11/5 so I would love for her to come today!!! But, I really like the date 11/11/09 (dh and I met on 11/11/04) or 11/14/09 (dh and I started dating on 11/14/09). At this point the sooner the better since she is already late!!!
