Best month to have a baby (give birth)?

April-May. I found out in early September, was showing nicely through the holidays, and was never pregnant when it was super hot. Was able take the babies on nice walks through the summer, and they had their shots before cold/flu season came

I agree with the above. There’s nothing worse than being pregnant through the height of summer! X

I have a December and an April. April was so much better for being PP.

I think either September-October or January-March. Being heavily pregnant in summer is really difficult but it means my September baby will be one of the oldest in her year at school (UK) and it means she gets an extra year before she starts school. Plus baby is still tiny and cute at Christmas! Jan-March means you're not heavily pregnant in the summer, it's after Christmas and they're not the youngest in their year. Plus they're not a newborn in the height of summer when it's hottest and you're worried about keeping them cool.

I've had a winter baby and a summer baby. I hated winter because I walking around in the snow and the ice (I'm very clumsy) and also all swollen and crabby for Christmas. I hated summer because I was big and hot. So I'd say spring is probably the ideal

I had my girl in September and it felt perfect to hibernate for the winter with a newborn 🥰

I have an April baby and a May baby. It's been pretty great so far! They're 5 and 2 now.

I have an October and December babies.. Then February and March is my husband and I birthday months 😅 I love my fall/winter babies 🤍

I have December and March babies. I wouldn’t like to give birth December again, it is a really expensive month especially cause my partners birthday is two days before our sons. But the main reason being yes it is nice having a big bump during the cold months, but I found it really isolating when you have a newborn and it’s cold out and gets dark at 4pm. The days felt so short it makes me feel anxious thinking about it. March was quite nice. I’d like a September or May baby next x

All the clothes you have to buy in December just for them to NEVER wear again because of the amount of layers 🤦🏼‍♀️ also mum of December baby.
I think spring would be a nice time, that's when I was born

My boy was born 25th June ... Bang on in the middle of the year so it's a cheaper time (not the school holidays etc) and it's just getting warmer but it's not too hot at that point. Also being pregnant in the winter months was nice because I'd get snuggled up and not feel bad about not going out but I got to enjoy summer with my little boy once he was born

There’s a reason wildlife babies are born in the Spring! Gives them time to get good and healthy before the winter bugs set in.
Also a child born in August will almost be a whole year behind a child born in September when they both start school, it’s not just about your pregnancy.

I loved having a January baby. The timing is great as you get big just as it cools down and you can be all cosy with your bump. Everyone is wearing oversized so shopping for bump friendly clothing is easy and you don’t have to worry about a newborn overheating.

I had a December and July baby. July is definitely easier cause birthdays are completely separate from Christmas. Next is due in May and think that’s gonna be easier too 😊

March! Hunker down for the first month, it starts warming up in April as you venture out and by May it’s hot and you’re living your best life with an immobile but robust baby. You also avoid RSV season with a newborn and when it comes around again they’re like 6/7 months old at least. September/October is the worst as you pop, hibernate for a month then come out into deep dark winter

I have a May baby and will be giving birth to my September baby soon!
I have struggled like crazy with this baby and the heat through summer, especially working in it. My May baby was so much easier in that respect.
My birthday is March and always quite liked it as it’s starting to warm up.
I’d go March-May as preferred months x

my birthday is the 25th of June! And I have to say, I love having my birthday then. Almost always a lovely day and I loved saying that I was a something age and a half on Christmas Day. Lol.

I voted for the April to June months. I would have chosen July to September (as it’s warmer, birthday parties outside, etc) but after experiencing starting school recently, I think it’s maybe easier for the kids if they are slightly older when starting school, rather than one of the youngest. I don’t think it makes a difference in the grand scheme of things, but maybe easier when they first start? Also, you give birth before it gets really hot, so you’re not heavily pregnant during the warmest months. My son is born in March and it’s a great time for presents. It’s starting to warm up, so getting him summery type presents (like a bike, roller skates, lighter clothes) is good timing as the summer months roll in. His winter presents would have been received at Christmas. My daughter was born in November, but she’s still 2, so haven’t really experienced arranging of parties, etc with her yet.

My first is a June baby it’s literally my birthday on the same day aswell 😂😂 feel sorry for my partner , & then we have a April baby too I had him this year so haven’t had a birthday yet to see what it’s like my parters birthday is jan absolutely pain in the ass 😂😂 with it just being Christmas

March/April is probably the best time in my opinion

I thought March was good. She was 3mo when summer hit and I was able to actually enjoy the summer with her brother.
My other two are late May / early June and I felt like I lost my summers to the newborn phase!
But the birthday parties at that time of year are better than the March one.
Pros and cons to everything 😂

Spring time
My first 4 are all spring baby’s and I enjoyed their pregnancy/ labour
I’ve just had my 5th 4 days ago ( last Wednesday) and I hated being heavily pregnant in the summer heat we had labour was only as it was quite cold and actually rainy lol but I hated being heavily in the summer with my spring babies I was heavy pregnant in winter which was a lot nicer I think lol 😂

I had a January baby this year. It was nice to be on maternity leave in the cold months and have an excuse to not leave the apartment BUT I wish I could have gone on walks and not been miserably cold lol

February

We gave birth to our daughter in February and so far her last 2 birthdays have been blue skies and sunny days!! We're hoping it's the same for her 3rd birthday.

I am due to give birth next month and october is basically summer here!! But if he comes this month temps are usually between 73f and 85f!

I had a July baby in 2024. It was nice to have a baby in the lovely sunny weather, but in my personal experience it wasn’t as great of a month to have a baby in as I’d thought. When I was postpartum I was a zombie and I have absolutely zero memory of July August and September. So by the time I was feeling myself again it was cold and miserable weather. And being hot and sweaty while pregnant then freshly pp was not it

Personal preference, but I suppose best is spring like others said 🙌🏼 Days are getting longer and it is easier for ppd. Just downside to be big during cold months because you miss out on beautiful flowy maternity dresses (I bought about 10!) and u can't wear flip flops! I couldn't put shoes or socks on the last 2 months! I had my baby end of October so being the biggest in Sept and Oct was OK, I enjoyed the summer and cute clothes, but postpartum was a bitch. Weather so gloomy and cold. For the next baby I will try to aim for spring or summer birthdays 🤭🤭
