Would you rather have a May or June Baby?

Question

I am ovulating today and debating if I want to try for baby or wait until next month for a June baby. My oldest has a birthday end of April so they would have close birthdays if we had a May baby. I don’t know if having a baby born in June is hard with school..they would be one of the youngest. Anyone with any input or experience please share!! Thanks!

Accepted Answer

1 month doesn’t make a difference and you can’t guarantee when you will get pregnant anyway

Answer

There's no guarantee you'll get pregnant on either of those months. Lol I say just start trying now & take whatever you get.

Answer

Honestly? I’d have taken any date of the year because we struggled to conceive and I learned quickly there’s no guarantee of any month being a success 😅 I also think when the baby is here you’re not gonna care much about whether they came a month earlier or later. 
I always said I wanted a summer baby and wanted to avoid Christmas at all costs, then I ended up hoping for a Christmas baby when the struggle started 😂 got an autumn baby instead.
I say just keep trying since there really is never guarantee of success when you’re TTC without medical intervention. 😊

Answer

If you want a baby at all you try every month. You can't guarantee when you get pregnant anyways, and many women find the best laid plans to go straight out the window when they are TTC. Don't wait, every month is worth trying.

Answer

Based on my experience, I wouldn't bother trying for a month. You'll just get disappointed. You can't actually control when your baby's born. Who knows, you might end up with a baby due in like August. I'd just start trying now. Like for me, it's our second cycle ttc for our 3rd, and our first has her 5th birthday at the end of May, which is when I'd be due if I conceive this cycle. I really don't want that to happen, but I want a baby more than I care when it comes. And my second ended up being premature coming 6 weeks early, so I might end up having this baby early too. I don't know. But I don't care. 🤷‍♀️

Answer

I don’t really think one month makes much of a difference. Our son is a May baby and I enjoy it. I wasn’t pregnant in the summer, didn’t have to worry about snow when he was born, and he was born mid May so it was warming up nicely. 
I don’t really think trying for a specific month is necessary, but if we have a third I will definitely try and plan it by season. I never want to be pregnant all summer again😂 I am roasting lmao.

Answer

Why does it matter if they’re the youngest? Both my kids have June birthdays and them being the youngest has never been mentioned lmao

Answer

I've had a June baby 24 years ago and just had a May baby this year.

Answer

You can’t Guarantee when you get pregnant or when you’ll give birth. I thought i was getting a november baby but because of complications, we get a mid October baby now🤷🏼‍♀️ if you want a baby, you’ll try at every chance you get.

Answer

I recently started thinking about this, because I have 3 nieces & nephews with birthdays in May & June. While I’d love for my baby to have their own special month it’s not worth it for me to skip a month just cause… after long months of ttc I’m just hoping that I can get pregnant at this point. 🤞🏼🫶🏻
