Hoping for a certain month?

Just curious, but is anybody aiming for a certain month for their baby to be born?

I saw that there were a few other teachers on here and wondered if they were hoping for a summer month. I would love to have a due date anywhere between April (too late) and July so that I'll be off of work or close to being off. BUT, I would take any month of course.

(Although, missing September for maternity leave would be really hard!) Plus, my DS was due at the end of March and was born at the beginning of February, so you just never know when they'll really come.

Not really, just whenever!

I would really like my baby to be born in May. My bday is in May and my mom's bday is in May. If I get pregnant this cycle, the estimated due date will be May 6th. But of course, any due date will be fine

I really wanted an April baby, but I don't think I'll get my April baby. I have summer babies already, so I'd like a baby in the fall. Just don't want to wait that long to get my BFP!

I'm not choosy. I'll take it whenever I can get it.

Although FF says if I conceived this month, my EDD would be May 8th... which would be fantastic because then I wouldn't have to be all big and pregnant in the middle of the summer, ya know? My mom was HUGELY pregnant with me during the summer (born in September) and she said it was MURDER!

So while I'd like to avoid that if I could... at this point Beggars can't be Choosers!! LOL!

I would really like a summer baby. I would prefer not to be due in the winter but I will take what I can get. LOL.

Since I'm also a teacher, I was hoping for a March or April baby, but now I would like any time!!! I'm right there with you and it would be nice for the baby to come before July.

Oh well, I guess I'm not being choosy any more

I was hoping for a fall or spring baby at first, but at this point, I'll take what I can get, too.

If we get a BFN this cycle, that will mean May is out, so I'll definitely be pulling for a summer baby because I'll be starting classes in the fall. Having a baby and juggling the first semester toward a new career might be a wee bit challenging.
