Hi just curious to know if anyone has had there 2,3,4 ect child born the same month as another child?
How do you go with birthdays ect?

[FiveAus]

i had two born on the same date, then married a guy who shared their birthday.
The kids are 10 years apart. Those birthdays send me broke.

I'm in may, so are my 2DD's. and Mother's Day!
This is the first year with all 3 of us so we'll work it out.
But there'll be a special day for everyone individually.
We're not the same days we're 16th, 18th & 30th.

My 2 sons are born in the same month (4 days apart), 2 years seperate them. They open their presents on their respective birthdays and we have a joint family dinner for them and then they have seperate parties at McDonalds/Play centres or where ever they want with their own friends.

Yes, my DS is 11th Dec and my DD is 3rd Dec - just under a year apart in age. This last birthday was the first year they really knew what was going on - DS turned 3 and DD turned 2 ... I gave them a combined birthday party on the weekend in the middle of both birthdays and on their actual birthdays had a cake with immediate family. I won't be doing combined birthdays as they get older (unless they want me to) as they will start to have their own friends etc so it will be nice for them to have their own special day. What is your situation OP?

my boys are birthdays are 2 weeks apart. they are 4 and 5 atm so its easy as they have the same friends taste in toys ect..

My girls are 1 month before them so all up my 4 kids are within 50 days of each other..
fun times!

At least its in the middle of the year:)

Mine are 6 weeks apart so not exactly same month. It's just long enough to do separate parties. My god children are 2 days apart and have joint parties.

[Relish*]

My two have birthdays a day apart. Haven't had any parties yet, they're 1 and 3 next month, but I think it'd be fine, especially if they get along (which they do so far!) It's not like I can do anything about it anyway so it is what it is!

I'm currently pregnant with number 2 but this is my husband's 5th child.

This year looks a little like this:

23rd April - my sister's birthday
27th April - my brother gets married
5th May - DS's 3rd birthday
7th May - MIL's birthday
12th May - Mother's Day
13th May - Step Daughter's birthday
19th May - my mum's birthday
21st May - baby's due

We have a similar set up in July / August with the other 2 kids and family members.

It's a bit exhausting but we make sure that each person's special occasion is celebrated and all the focus is on them.

In September I have Father's day(for 2 dads and my husband)
My sister's birthday on the 1st
Niece on the 6th
Mine on the 13th
Father in law the 29
BiL 30th.

It gets busy and expensive but it's easily managed.

I'm a twin so my mum had to do 3 birthday parties in 2 weeks.
My sister on the 1st was 2yrs older and had a party, then my twin brother and I had a party 2 weeks later. Stuff organised for the boys and diff stuff for the girls. And she made TWO different amazing cakes for our party as well.
