Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Trisha and Hannah and Vicki and Anneliese - happy birthday Josh and Tim and Hannah and Jack - 'our Toby' and in our village birthdaying tomorrow - makes me wonder what proportion of children on the list relate to Christmas/New Year jollifications and also whether we have a lot of May babies?

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Well I certainly know about the September babies - we are obviously not planned at all, but just the result of too much excess at Christmas and New Year ;o))) Of course, I can only comment on my parents (!), but birthdays this month that I can think of are my dad, grandpa, friend's mum, mine, DH, granny, MIL, cousin, uncle, BIL, five friends, 3 friend's children... and that's just in two minutes of thinking while writing this message! Good job I don't have to buy presents for all of them! Now, my children all have birthdays within 5 weeks of each other - 16 Feb, 8 March and 23 March.......

I must have said on here before Jack was a Christmas Party baby. I told DH on New Years Eve at a friends dinner party that I thought I could be pregnant, and they wanted to know what we were whispering about! (July 6th) was a return to work baby. I decided that I really did not like work after having had a years maternity leave and decided that they quickest way to leave was to have another baby on go on maternity leave. Isaac (June 25th) was a post NCT BBQ - there was a lovely little newborn baby there and there is now 9 months between them (and they don't like each other one bit but thats another story).

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Well I'm a May baby (24th) not quite an August Bank Holiday baby as I was 11 days late but I think I just missed being a World Cup baby too and my DH is a March baby (15th) My children are both December babies - 1st (due 16th) and 31st (due 25th - phew). DH reckons this is because he only gets one bonk a year - on his birthday (lies, all lies) Cerys Mum to (1/12/95) & Kieran (31/12/98) You don't stop laughing because you grow old, you grow old because you stopped laughing.

Don't know, but my brother and I are 2 years and 5 days apart (he 26th April, me May 1st), and if we count back, it puts our conception date at right around out dad's birthday in July. And DS was most likely conceived on a holiday in early April and born on 1st Jan. Phyllis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 Forgot to say - the DH's birthday theory is blown out of the water with DH (31/12) as I know he was conceived on 3rd April but nobody believes me.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 All right, I'll come clean - no, Tim wasn't a Christmas/New Year " accident " , we started " trying " in September (but I have to admit I wasn't trying very hard!) and it took till Christmas for it to work. Not bad for a reluctant 35 yr old with a retroverted uterus, though. Anneliese and Toddler Tim who said when he woke up from his nap today " Cards? More cards, More Birthday, PLEASE " !!!! Lucky I had one present still unopened!

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 lol... no May and no Sep birthdays in my family... Phoebe is a Feb baby and Eloisa a Jan birthday.. " mac " (or Bruce as Phoebe say's it is.......) is due in December... Dh birthday in January and me March 1st.. My mum is in June as is MIL and FIL and 2 nephews... (So June is out busy time) and my dad and Sister is in August... dh's side of the family must have had something happening around April though as dh and his 2 brothers all had/have their birthday in January and my BILs 2 boys also do... )... Personally I have aimed for winter babies each time as I really did not want to be pg over a hot summer ;o)... Lonnie Phoebe & Eloisa's mama & expecting a Christmas delivery... My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you start. So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake. I feel better already.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2001 Report Share Posted September 19, 2001 > Now, my children all have birthdays within 5 weeks of each other - 16 Feb, 8 > March and 23 March....... Hannah - it's as clear as daylight - those Feb/March birthdays show that their parents weren't constrained to going on holiday during August by their existing children - I feel a research paper coming on.. Just as an addition slightly related, my Grandmother remarked to my mother re. some difficulties with the will of one of her uncles, that it was a shame her grandparents hadn't joined a golf club instead of retiring to bed on Sunday afternoons!! (eleven children....*and* the bride was under age when married - daughter of an artist, those bohemians you know - quite how under age I hope to discover when I can manage to break away from my children and newsletter one week soon to go to Family Records Centre in Londinium) Caro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To cap it all & I have other family birthdays & annivs throughout May, esp 21st,28th,29th,30th,31st May, our wedd anniv 1st June,and a few more in June too.I raided Clintons and pre-wrote lots of cards in 91 & 94, I was caught out with DD1, as none of the cards were signed with her name!

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2001 Report Share Posted September 20, 2001 May and June are popular in my family too. My own birthday and my mum's too (one day apart), are in May. Out of my kids, Sara, Tavya and Yeshaya are in June, Uri and Tammy in May. I don't know *why* I went for the May and June dates escept that it's safely after Passover! Avigayil was born in March, 3 weeks before Passover and that was really a pain! Zehava was born in January which was great; no Jewish holidays for *months* on either side!!! :-)) Azariah was born in August 1976... hottest summer for 500 yrs and he was *very* overdue. Bad idea!
