I was just curious of how many mama's are expecting thier precious baby on the week of Christmas. I am so excited! I mean what if I have a Christmas Eve or Christmas Day baby?!?! I kind of feel bad for baby Gabriel though because I have met individuals who have always felt jipped because of being born close to or on the Holidays. Plus the cold weather restrics cool Birthdays and so forth. I live in CT so when its December its FREEZING! I'd like to hear from you mama's!

My youngest DD was born on Dec 18th and this year will be her sixth birthday.  I've never jipped her, nor has anyone else.  Now, my husband on the other hand was born on Dec 26th and was constantly jipped as a child.  Maybe if it's before Christmas everyone is still festive and in the giving mood and after Christmas everyone's over the giving and ready to move on. IDK!!

I am due Dec 11th.  Almost 9 years ago my 1st son was born on December 22nd. I was due X-mas day. Totally exciting having a new baby on x-mas!

I live in Chicago and I'm due Xmas eve. My doc changed my due date a long time ago and I'm far too lazy to change my siggie by a day- lol. I will be doing an amnio to check for lung maturity and giving birth as early as possible, but still safely, so it may be the first or second week of Dec.

We're getting close!

I was born the 27th.  My parents always tried to make my bday special.  the only thing I felt jipped on was that sometimes my friends couldn't make it because they were traveling or doing their xmas then.  But it is all good, I still like my bday!!

I'm due the 8th. My original due date was the 19th and I was SOOOO glad they ended up adjusting it. I do NOT want to have a baby on Christmas. Not only do they get robbed of their own birthday, but my wallet would never recover from doing a birthday party and double gifts right there at Christmas!

My daughter was due on Christmas day but she did not make her apperance until January 9th.  I have always made it a point to have separate celebrations.  Her birthday presents are wrapped in birthday paper.  I hear some people just wrap in Christmas paper.  I usually do her birthday shopping at the same time as Christmas only because I can't seem to find things after because everything is sold out.  I don't think she has ever felt jipped.  This little one on the way is due Dec 30th but I think she will be late too.
