To all TTC ladies...

I hear you! And P.S. your picture with you and your husband holding that banner is very beautiful!

Ideally I would want a may bd - there are only a few in my entire fam with may birthdays - but lots in June.  It would work out for me personally based on work and the down time I'll need with pregnancy etc.  I would also want my kid to have their birthday during the school year - mine was in the summer, so bridal parties were tricky.

I just like to be pregnant and then have a full-term, healthy baby if I can. I don't care what month it is.

This, really..no snark intended. I don't give a crap which month. 

this exactly.

Yup.

DS was a March baby (due in April) and it was pretty perfect. I didn't have to deal with the oppressive heat and humidity while pregnant and the weather was great while I was on maternity leave. Plus Spring is my favorite season.

September for Virgo baby, the weather's perfect for outdoor parties.

Hmm, I haven't really thought about it... BUT 

I only have one month that would irritate me a bit to give birth in - December. My birthday is at the end of December and it always sucked. 

Besides all that, I think I would like to have a kid with a summer birthday. I think the party ideas are more fun in the summer. 

All that said, I will continue to TTC every cycle, even if that means a December baby. In the end, the baby, and not the birth date is what matters.

Used to be January... Or at least season wise winter. But once I realized I have no power over when I'll have a baby, I don't care.

early in TTC I cared. But at this point I don't care at all. Just want that baby!!!!

September or April! Husband wants september because his birthday is in sept and I want april because thats when mine is. We both like those months because the weather is always nice for pool parties and slip and slides!:)

Obviously, I would be happy with a baby at any time but anytime from Jan to April would be awesome.  I work in a school, so it would allow me to take a good amount of time off with my baby before returning to work. 

This exactly!

Agreed!  But if I had to pick, I'd say any month but December.  The holidays are crazy and no kid wants to get gypped on birthday presents!

october would be nice for birthday parties and stuff. any month  but september. that way they wouldn't have weird rules on when to start school. as of now, i'd take any though! haha.

It would be nice to be due in April/May/June/July for my mental health. I had a bad case of the blues with DS born in Dec 2010. I was stuck home for all my maternity leave because of all the snow. I'd really like to avoid that this time.

I didn't have the blues so much but it was a little depressing when I felt I couldn't get out because of the weather. DS was born Halloween 2010 so my maternity leave was basically the whole winter. It would be nice to have a summer baby (we don't have hot summers) so May-Sept would be great to experience.

Anywhere between April-early July.

I would love to have a May, June baby since I work in a school I will be able to have the whole summer with the baby.  If it does not work out that way then it is not a big deal but that is my ideal goal.  Which we all know usually does not work out when it comes to things like this.

If I had any control at all.... Whatever month makes me not even more uncomfortable in the heat during the Summer... lol.   But I'd love to have a newborn in Spring.  I LOVE Spring.

pinkflipflops44

I'd like a May baby again.  Pregnant right after summer and due before the heat starts.  Maybe even April so the baby would be a bit older for the summer.  I also liked that by the time winter came around she wasn't an itty bitty newborn and I didn't have to be super worried about germs/illnessess in a newborn.

May through September would work best for my work but after we blew through those dates last time around I was very happy with an inconveniently timed April due date that turned into an even more inconveniently timed February baby.

Hoping for better luck this time and taking another shot at May-September...but if I get pregnant with a March baby this month I will be thrilled!

I don't care, but I will say it was tough to be very pregnant all summer. DD is an August baby and it was record highs in NYC that summer...it was pretty bad!
