Both of my LOs were each born within a week of a cousin. They only have 3 cousins so it is a little unusual. If you include DH's family and mine, we have groups of 3 or 4 birthdays in a month's span and then months with no birthdays at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1844089 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 11:23:18 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1844089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Actually we are going to have kind of a perfect split. My birthday is early June, my son is early September, my husband is late February and our new baby will be mid to late March. The winter birthdays will be on the close side but still far enough away and long enough after the holidays that we will have time to save and plan properly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1844031 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 10:13:28 +0000 lovehoneybee 1844031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some months, definitely: </p> <p>April: BIL, Mom, Grams, me, MIL<br /> August: Niece, E, D's uncle, BIL, D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843975 Mon, 01 Sep 2014 08:26:28 +0000 snowjewelz 1843975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

It is crazy the last 2 weeks of August! I am hoping our eventual LO #2 doesn't have an August birthday and I hope he or she doesn't feel left out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843840 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 23:39:51 +0000 BoogieBea 1843840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's between april and august for us. Plus there's mother's day and father's day during that period also. It can be quite stressful sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843773 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 21:40:17 +0000 Mrs. Chocolate 1843773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>From September through Feb we have a birthday (sometimes 2) every month but Dec but thats Christmas. Then we have a few month lull until May where we have birthdays again through July (multiple including the kids) and August is our anniversary so yes we have tons of gift giving through the year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843771 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 21:38:37 +0000 PinkElephant 1843771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours are pretty much ALL clustered in June and August. I find it kind of hectic - and expensive!!! DH, my mom, and his siblings are the only ones NOT in this cluster....so including all parents, grandparents, my siblings/spouses , and nieces/nephews, it's 12+ birthdays in 2 months. We've always lived far away so don't celebrate together, but maybe now that we are moving closer we will do some joint celebrations. </p> <p>DD#1 and I always celebrate together because we share a birthday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843673 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:30:23 +0000 babycanuck 1843673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My cousin and I are two days apart and growing up our birthdays were always done together. Everyone else is spread out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843669 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:29:13 +0000 Dandelion 1843669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. M is the only grandkid on my side not born in august and october is busy for my mom, sil and brothers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843666 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:27:29 +0000 lilteacherbee 1843666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, same here, lots of birthdays August- December. My sister's is in August, myself and FIL have September birthdays, MIL in October, DH and LO 10 days apart in November, and my mom in December. My dad is the odd one out with a birthday in May. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843665 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:27:12 +0000 Beebug 1843665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister and I are the same day (8 years apart) same with my step dad and his sister, but beyond that everything else is in May within a one week stretch, July over two weeks, and one week through October. It's insane how much is in those short stretches of those 3 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843658 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:22:05 +0000 Tanjowen 1843658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ummm, apparently March is a big "get it on" month for my family. In the month of December we have 5 birthday's just in my immediate family! Mine and my LO's are in December :D</p> <p>And that's not counting 2 cousins and my Aunt in the middle of all of it too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843657 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 19:21:26 +0000 mrsjyw 1843657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My bday in August kicks off crazy bday/holiday season for us.

However in my close family, we are spread out with everyone in a different month: February, March, April, May, June, November, and December. My parents and sister live in the same area as DH and me so we always have dinner with them for everyone's birthdays but nothing big. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-birthdays-close-together-in-your-family#post-1843606 Sun, 31 Aug 2014 17:50:26 +0000 Applesandbananas 1843606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Starting off in late August and running through early December, everyone in my family has their birthday (my parents, sibling, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents) -- except LO! It's really fun, we usually do stuff together, like a giant cookout or this year, a big group of us are going to a football game. </p> <p>Are birthdays close in your family? Do you celebrate together? </p>
