Christmas babies!

Ma • Wed, May 24

Hi moms! Any other 12/25 due dates in the house? I got to thinking a lot more lately that I really don't want to be spending Christmas Day at the hospital. What a great day it would be, yes, but I think that that day is only for Jesus and we should celebrate Him. Plus I can imagine how tragic it would be that family would forget about baby's birthday because it's also on Christmas.

I've never had the joy of feeling my water break with my two previous babies, but I would love to finally experience it. I don't know, I know it's a lot to think about but what are your thoughts of delivering on the day of your due dates? I just want to be comfortable at home, around family and stuffing my face with delicious holiday food.

The thing is, I don't want to induce my labor and I don't want to have my baby past Christmas. I just want to have baby in my arms by NYE. So strange of me to even think this. Any other weird thinkers like me?
