People with multiple kids which month did you like giving birth ?

Hi mommies! So obviously this is just a funny topic, it’s really not that deep but just thoughts which cross my mind as we are thinking of growing our family. I’ve been wondering what I’d like to do differently next time and the only thing which has come up for me is to try not have another September baby.

Ok so my daughter is a September baby and apart from her being the oldest in her class when she’s older, which in my mind doesn’t always mean anything, I’ve really not enjoyed the month she’s was born it just felt really meh. It was a hot summer leading up to September and being heavily pregnant was utter crap. Once she was here going into the autumn/winter was heavy with a new baby, the dark nights felt really claustrophobic and definitely added to the night time scaries. When she started nursery after her first birthday she went straight into germ season (October) which was rough. I felt like she didn’t have time to build up any resilience. So yeah if I had my time again I think a nice March baby would be lovely. You’ve got spring starting with summer just on the horizon, lots of pram walks. By winter you’d be feeling healed, less shell shocked from being freshly pp and just ready to tackle the darker nights with a more slightly older baby.

Anyone care to add any thoughts? Maybe I’m wrong and maybe I haven’t thought of something? Remember it’s just for fun it’s not a competition of who has things harder.

Weight loss

I am almost 8 weeks postpartum from emergency c-section. I still have the “pouch” above my scar. I am walking at least an hour every day and eating healthy. Any tips to lose the pouch? I still have pain and can’t be physically active as I used to be..

Name help! (Is this a bad idea…)

If our baby is a boy we want to call him Maxim (Max) - my husband is Russian and it’s important for us to have a Russian name, our older son also has a Russian name. When I looked up the connotations of the name lots of Americans on Reddit were talking about it having connotations of a men’s magazine which I’d never heard of. Is that an association you’d make in the UK?
