re: Best season for a newborn?

Quoting Rea:" Fall! i have a Sep,Oct,Nov, and will have a January...You cen keep then all warm and cozy inside or in ... [snip!] ... downside is with the public school system ALL my kids will be a year behind, if you go for that then i love my may birthday."

I am just realizing this! My son will be 4 this fall so we are just starting school

I just know that I would NOT want to be heavily pregnant in Summer. I got pregnant last June...it was awesome timing haha. I was due in February but gave birth March 1st.

Quoting Bobo's mum:" Winter Spring Summer or Fall and why? Assuming we could all get pregnant instantly and control these things "

Both of mine were winter babies so I don't really know any different. I'd prefer to continue to have winter babies because then all of the clothes can be reused.  

Quoting snugglemama:" ! 3 out of 4 of mine were born in May. Perfect. I didn't have to be pregnant through summer heat, ... [snip!] ... for walks with the stroller when I was newly post partum, and din't have to worry about going into labor during a snow storm."

Kinda funny you say that... my first was Feb 27 and the day my water broke, there was a blizzard, and about 2 inches of ice on the road. We got run off the freeway by a semi-truck and had no chains or snow tires on the car. CRAZY smurf.

It sucks, I mean it worked out for my oldest, she is/was delayed and had going though speach and preschool so this next year will be her third and last year of preschool even though she will be 5. She has really benifited from it, but I worry about #2, she is 3.5, and is really ahead of the game...poor kid is going to be board when she goes to kindergarden at almost 6 and can read and do simple math!

I had a January baby and loved bundling her up and then by summer she was old enough to enjoy the water with us....but I spent the entire winter terrified of her getting sick. I cant imagine a newborn with the flu.

My oldest was born June 9th and I thought it was perfect! I was done before it got hot and I could put her in a dress if it was warm out.

This baby is due June 22nd. I'm SOOOO bummed about spending my summer bleeding and flabby with a newborn instead of being able to enjoy the beach and camping. I was never into that stuff with my oldest and my SO does all that. Last summer I lived at the beach and everyone is planning that again--except for me. lol. Wouldve been nice had he come in early spring.

I had an early September baby - pregnancy was hell. I was huge and it was 90 degrees and I had to walk to work  

Baby wise, that was fine, it was hot but not too hot, and cooled quickly. I think I'd prefer an April/May babe, though.

Ha, I wish I hadn't read this! lol I'm due the 5th of September and am dreading being humongous during summer. I have November/December babies and wasn't as big until around August with both of them, this pregnancy I'm already huge lmao At least baby won't have to endure the hotness until next year ;)

Lol im due today and the heat is so unbareable and will probably hybernate in my ac house with baby until this humid heat is gone! ive constantly been thinking why couldnt i have been due in like april or oct! this one wasnt planned, but when i have my next child it will b well planned out
