I would love to have baby #2 in May or June. We had LO at the end of August and it was SO hot.

Definitely June, the month DD was born. It would have been very difficult if I had her during the winter because there's so little sunlight! Plus it's so very dry in Sweden during the winter. She's having a time now with skin issues and it's difficult, it would be so much harder with a NB.

April-May are ideal here! I would like a June & July baby though... Figure as long as I don't have to go through the whole summer I should be good.

ha, i was going to say end of August! that's when i am born and i love my birthday! Also, when i think of mat leave, it would be nice to have the whole summer off before going back to work, rather than having to go back in say April or May right before summer begins!

I loved having DS in Nov, got through most of the earlier months and escaped being too big in the summer heat. I also love that he is becoming more mobile and will be so much fun this spring and summer..

Ditto for August. Weather aside I would have loved to have had an October, November, February or March baby.

I think May! Spring, nice weather, early year baby so they have an advantage in school.

I think April +/- a month would be good for us, my dh's schedule slows a bit then and the weather will start to turn so we can get out of the house without dealing with frigid weather.

June - August. That's winter here. I can't handle heat of any sort.

October, the month I had my LO. April or may would also be nice since it would close to my DH going on summer break.

May lol. After tax season, nicer weather, outside of flu season, away from everyone else's birthday.
I'm due may 16 LO was meticulously planned!

Anytime between Oct - Jan... February would be good work wise as well but it's getting very hot over here at that point.

End of May through the beginning of July. That's what I'm planning on for our next baby- I want it warm enough so I can put my birth pool outside in the front yard. Lol, we literally live in the middle of nowhere, closest neighbors are 2 miles away, and our road is very rarely used, so I can get away with it. I'm not a total exhibitionist. But yeah, that's why early summer would be my pick.

LO was born in May, and it was really nice! I would like to have an April or fall baby too.

Maybe April.... so I wouldn't have to go through summer super heavy, and their birthday wouldn't be too close to Christmas.

Feb through August. Sept-Nov babies would be the oldest in their class, Dec and Jan are too close to the holidays.

I think a summer baby will be great! I was born in July, and loved being able to have pool parties. DS has an April birthday and it bugs me not being able to have outdoor parties, too many germs
DD is an October baby and that isn 't too terribly bad.
We've got an August baby coming!

I am married to a grain farmer so....
March-June is out cause of seeding/spraying
July is out cause I would have a newborn going into harvest
Aug-October is out cause of harvest....
I guess that really only leaves me Jan,Feb,Nov,Dec
And DD1 is December and DD2 is January with hopefully a BFP soon so I would be due in Nov...which i guess would be my ideal month cause by the time the next farming session rolls around the LO would be 4-5 months.

I always thought that September/October would be best. It's also when we got married - honestly I just love the fall! We didn't get our BFP last month, so if we get one this cycle it will be November...close enough!

I really wanted a spring baby (March-May) but we got a November one coming!

We have a September baby on the way and I'm happy with the month. It meant that I get the first tri (and m/s!) out of the way during the most miserable time of year when nothing happens. It doesn't get too hot in the UK so I'm not worried about the summer, infact I'm glad I'll be able to wear flip flops and floaty clothes!
I think DH is happy because he believes children that are the oldest in their school year are higher achievers. He read it in a Malcolm Gladwell book! I don't think this is the case though!

Spring! Had LO in November and I'm tired of snow and feeling cooped up.

I had LO in June and it was pretty good. I'd like to have my next LO about six weeks earlier in the year so it would still be summer when I went back to work.

I would LOVE a summer baby! We have an awesome backyard with a inground pool so I want pool/backyard birthday parties! hahah

June was the PERFECT month for us because my husband finishes teaching in early June and then has the entire summer off so we were both home for 3 months after LO was born. If we have another, we will definitely try to plan for a late May/June baby.

I want my next baby in April/May. This one was in October, which was nice because maternity leave fell over the holiday's but I had to be big pregnant in the dead of summer,

I want to say another Fall baby, because if I have another girl that's easy to re-use all the clothes!
But, I wouldn't mind March or April..

Jan-march for me because I'm a wedding photog! DD arrived in January so I get lots of time with her!
