One of my "team" members is pregnant with #2, and DH has two co workers that are pregnant with their first. We are all due within 6 weeks of each of other. I'm the last one.
Are you part of a baby boom IRL?
-
I was! I had my LOs in spring 2014 and I was one of 5 ladies pregnant that year! I worked at a fairly small organization, so it was sort of weird, but there were a lot of young, recently married women there so I guess not too surprising!
-
One girl just had her baby 3wks ago (fun fact: she has a son a few months older than Evan, and just had a girl. I'm having a girl, and our children will be almost exactly the same age apart. And our husbands work together!). I'm due in Dec and there's another girl due 4-6wks after me.
So there were 3 of us pregnant at once, but we work in an office with 200ish people so I'm not sure it would be considered a boom.
-
Yes! There was 11 of us in the sales department and three of us were pregnant together. Due in November, March (me) and August. I didn't go back. The one went back after her year off the following November and accidentally had baby number 3 in September! The one who was due in August took a year off and went back pregnant! Our boss was stressed.

@Mrs. Champagne: I bet your boss was! My team mate and I cover the same geographical area, but have different customers. Our mat leave will overlap and we would have been each other's back up. Time for plan B, lol
@lovehoneybee: that's freaky fun!
@twodoghouse: all I can imagine is how tasty your office must have been for a stretch. Please tell me each mama to be was celebrated with her very own cake!
-
Yes each time I've been pregnant.
DS1 - I was #4 within a year.
DS2 - I was #2 out of 3.
LO3 - I'm #3 this time! -
Yep! On my ten-person team last year, there was a baby born in May, another in July, another in September, and then DD in January.
-
There's one happening at my office now -- my coworker's wife had a baby in August, another coworker had one in September, and my boss is currently pregnant. I hope to be next in line
ETA: oh and same at DH's work. One baby was just born, one is due in February, and then a pair of twins due in March!
-
Cool! I sah but it seems like dh's work might be in the middle of a baby boom!
-
There are 4 of us at work due between thanksgiving and New Years-ish
-
@MrsSCB: oh are yall TTC?! Exciting!
-
Yup, within 6 months of DS's birth there were 6 other babies due (one with #4). It seems a lot in an office of only 60 or 70 people. Quite a number of my officemates are young single guys, too. There are also a lot of people past the prime baby-making years.
-
I was one of six last school year. Four of us were due in April and we had our babies within three weeks of each other. It's fun watching the babies grow up at the same time.
-
When I was pregnant with LO1, 2 other co-workers were pregnant. We were all due within 3 weeks of each other. There were only 7 people total working at the preschool!
-
Two of us were expecting in our team of four - twice. The other was the dad so he took two or two and a half months while I was out both times.
