Babies get so much more interactive and fun near the end of the fun year so it's great to enjoy the summer before going back to work. Where I am, we have a long winter, it was tough being cooped up for the newborn stage for all of winter! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1963226 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 13:32:10 +0000 MrsRcCar 1963226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love a August/September baby. I didn't mind being pregnant in the summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1963222 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 13:29:28 +0000 autumn865 1963222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had LO1 at the end of August and pros were: I got to wear maxi dresses and flip flops all the time and working for a school district I finished in June and had all summer to prepare for the baby. Cons were it was uncomfortable and hot when you're most uncomfortable and also once I became more confident to go out and she was a bit older it was winter with not much to do and super cold. Baby #2 will come in February and so far pros are:I'm loving the clothes because I only bought staple items and then layered on top items that I already have so its nice to feel like I can still wear MY clothes. Cons so far is when I was in my most awkward time (bloat but no bump yet) it was mid summer and I had to still wear summer clothes and bathing suits ick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1963016 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 06:01:30 +0000 littleblessings 1963016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD was an August baby. I hated having to be pregnant during the summer. Kept getting dehydrated.<br /> DS was a January baby. It was too cold to have him out and about. Plus I had like three visitors at the hospital. But it was an easier pregnancy. </p> <p>I think the next one id like to have at the beginning of Michigan warm season so he/she doesn't have to be so bundled up right away. So prolly between April or May. Anyways I'm kinda hoping for another girl when we have another so I can dress her in my daughters cute dresses! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1962984 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 01:08:11 +0000 NurseDMB 1962984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is a July baby.</p> <p>I was due with another July baby but had an early MC recently. I really don't care what month our next one is born in, I really didn't want August though because we have so many August birthdays in my family. I actually wouldn't mind a November or December baby this time around, because I could have maternity leave on the holidays (I'm a nurse and end up having to work most holidays.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1811412 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 10:47:22 +0000 Giulia1977 1811412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love a spring baby!! No more winter babies for me is a nightmare to walk around with a huge coat and a huge belly :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1811126 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 09:09:24 +0000 JerricaBenton 1811126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe Sept or Oct so we wouldn't have to miss a whole summer of the beach! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1811044 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:42:57 +0000 swedishfish 1811044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a June baby and this next LO is due at the beginning of February. I would've preferred the October due date of my miscarriage because I would've been home over the holidays. But I think it will be good. The baby will be old enough to take outside for walks once it starts to get nice out. It was way too hot to take R on walks over the summer last year most of the time.</p> <p>If we have a third LO I'd probably want a May/June due date. It works best with my school schedule. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1811030 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:38:09 +0000 littlek 1811030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO was due July but came in May. This LO is due end of November/beginning December and it has not been bad being pregnant during the summer. I have no preference of timing if we have a 3rd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1811023 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:35:30 +0000 Smurfette 1811023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a March baby but if we have another I would like a fall baby so then I would be on leave during the holidays. I don't want a summer baby cause then it would be too hot to do anything with a newborn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1810973 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:21:55 +0000 Alivoo01 1810973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have 1 kiddo right now and he was born in July. Despite dreading the hot, hot summer we have here, I survived it quite well! I think it's mainly bc DS treated me so nicely! &lt;3</p> <p>However, I'd love to have an April/May baby so that all our birthdays are kind of evenly spaced out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1810963 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:17:16 +0000 NovBaby1112 1810963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is a nov baby and it was a LONG winter. I hated being cooped up in the house all day. The only good thing about it was she was a newborn so not much to do anyways. But now that she is a toddler, I am aiming for a spring/summer baby next time (May or June at this point...) because I can't imagine being cooped up with a toddler and a newborn all winter long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1810957 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:15:32 +0000 swurlygurl 1810957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Jan baby and about to have an August baby. I would prefer mid-late Spring. April or May, maybe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby/page/2#post-1810952 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:13:58 +0000 LuLu Mom 1810952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an October baby and will be having a March baby. I'm super excited about my March baby, early spring so it's not super hot and I'll go back to work in June. Best part is not having to be hugely pregnant in the summer is a giant bonus to me. With LO it was the hottest summer on record and I never left the house. This time, I can wear comfy sweaters and leggings in the winter and be round and happy ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810889 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 07:49:25 +0000 lawbee11 1810889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an August baby and it sucked...I was so swollen, hot, uncomfortable. Though I have a February bday and I hated always having to have my parties indoors, so I'm glad she'll at least be able to have pool parties and such when she's older. </p> <p>I think May is the perfect month to have a baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810885 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 07:47:45 +0000 LBee 1810885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>October - March. No more summer babies for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810884 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 07:47:04 +0000 mrsjyw 1810884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is a Nov baby. We're shooting for a spring/summer baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810831 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 07:20:00 +0000 Mamaof2 1810831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a Sept baby and as a working mom it worked out great - I took off the rest of the year (well I did some work from home) and it was so nice to be home during the holidays and not rush back for work!</p> <p>Next baby was March and that was nice because when she about a month old spring was arriving so we got outside a lot and I wasn't stuck in the house! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810793 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:31:13 +0000 Pumuckl 1810793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My body + pregnancy + summer = bad combination</p> <p>so if we have a third I think we'll try for a mid spring baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810786 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:26:01 +0000 looch 1810786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would want them in the same month: December!</p> <p>Sounds insane, because a lot of women skip this month, but every other year, we celebrate Christmas with my husbands extended family. It is also the opportunity for my son to celebrate his birthday with them, which I would want for all of my children, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810785 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:25:25 +0000 getjazzy 1810785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a summer baby and would love a late fall/early winter baby next time. Since I would be spending most of the newborn stage at home anyway, it would be nice for it to be when the weather isn't ideal, that way when spring starts, baby would be around the age that we would start baby group and things like that.</p> <p>I don't have a preference in terms of maternity clothes, both were good for me. I CAN'T WAIT to wear maternity jeans again :heart: haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810768 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 06:02:49 +0000 illumina 1810768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is a September baby and I think it was a great time; for mostly the reasons @lamariniere: said...by the time Spring came she was 6 months and happy to be outside all the time and now during Summer she's down to one nap and we have so much more free time. Then by this winter she'll be running around and we can do inside things like soft play/swimming etc. It doesn't get particularly hot in the Summer here, so being heavily pregnant during it wasn't a problem. By the time flu season came she wasn't teeny tiny either, nor did I have to worry about a newborn being dehydrated all Summer!</p> <p>Will probably plan to TTC so we have a Fall baby next time :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810749 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 03:08:12 +0000 lamariniere 1810749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an end of November and an end of December babies. I kind of like the winter months with a newborn because by the time spring and summer roll around, the whole family can have more fun outside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810744 Tue, 12 Aug 2014 01:14:18 +0000 BabyMats 1810744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an early August baby.

Being pregnant in the summer was nice for clothes. I almost lived in maxi dresses and skirts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810656 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 21:40:12 +0000 Mae 1810656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a may baby and I thought the timing was pretty good. I think the perfect month would be November though. (Pregnant all in one year = only 1 copay, baby tax deduction for a whole year even though you only actually have 1-2 mo of baby expenses, plus you're not hugely pregnant in summer and you don't have to buy a maternity coat.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810654 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 21:38:59 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1810654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a January and a February baby. If I ever have a 3rd I think I'd want an April baby, so all our birthdays will be spread out (and not around holidays). My birthday is in March.</p> <p>I also wouldn't want a Fall baby because of the school cut-off dates (Sept 1st), so in my ideal scenario, Sept-Dec would be out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-month-would-you-prefer-to-have-another-baby#post-1810638 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 21:24:13 +0000 travellingbee 1810638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like another spring baby! </p>
