>>>Does anybody see the same thing in their neck of the woods...here, women will often try to plan their pregnancies so that they will have the baby in the summer or autumn so as not to be pregnant in the wintertime. <<<
I was born just at the beginning of a medium size blizzard. After my parents took me home, my mother didn't leave the house for several weeks. I don't think she cared for that very much. However, that's not the reason that I intend to plan my pregnancies to avoid winter. My birthday is Dec. 29. That's just 4 days after Christmas!!! To a small child, it seemed a horrible punishment for me to have my birthday so close to Christmas. Uncles and Aunts would give me 1 present and say "that can be for your birthday too." I never got to have a birthday party in class because we were always out for Christmas. My friends were always away on my birthday, so my parties were sad affairs. I have no intention of putting my children through that! Summer babies for me!
