I think it is all in how YOU treat it. Some people sound like they may have missed out but it is all about what you do to celebrate their birthday.

My DD's birthday is 23/12 and I was inititially horrified at the thought, but we have gotten around it by celebrating it early each year. My birthday is mid November so we aim to have a double celebration each year (easier for me too!) and that way there is a break between her birthday celebrations and christmas and she can still have a party with her school friends when older. Everyone seems to understand and no-one minded that we celebrated early in fact I think all the reles were glad as Dec is such a busy time of the year.

Good luck ttc anyway!
