Really what is so bad about dec babies!!!

This is why i love bb

yep, it doesnt matter when ur birthday is in our house, we make the effort to make it a big wonderful day, so even though it may be close to xmas, really doesnt faze me.

and ur right bec, its perfect for me.

I just dont know why, when im all smiles and say i am pregnant, and due in dec, they have this negative comment, even a simple congrats and nothing else would have been better, makes me not want to tell anyone else, and just share my joy on bb!

Firstly,

CONGRATULATIONS

As far as schooling as an issue - you live in Qld - our school year is based on July - June birthdays which puts your bub right in the centre of the age group (ideal, I say ) They won't be going stir crazy at home or care because they are understimulated and needed to start school already but they won't be the youngest in their grade.

As for the Christmas thing, all the best toys go on sale for Christmas not to mention the six month layby that you can get in July on cheap toys at Target, Kmart & Big W.

But at the end of the day ... all you really want is a healthy baby ... who cares when it was born

I hope that you have an incredibly happy and healthy nine months.

Lisa - please tell whomever gives you a negative reaction to a Dec birth to stuff it. Seriously.

We've all learned from BB that so many women would take a baby in Defebmarchober (my fake month) if only they could have a healthy bub. Is the EDD really that much of a worry? NOOOOO.

Jump for joy, scream with glee and just smile at the fact that you have a gorgeous baby in your belly whether they start school "on time" or not!!

My only thought hearing Dec/Jan is how much I'll feel for you in that heat!
I had DS in March & I dunno how I survived summer, lol!!
