for fun: wedding anniversary babies

Who else had a child born on their wedding anniversary?

Our 3rd was born on the evening of our 7th wedding anniversary. It's been 10 months since he was born and after spending so much time during my pregnancy wondering when he'd be born, and hoping against certain dates, it's just starting to sink in that it's pretty neat that he was born on our anniversary.

Is it something special for you? Does it affect how you celebrate the birthday or the anniversary?

I allllllmost added that anyone who had a wedding anniversary conception story could jump in too, but I didn't want to seem creepy

I am pretty sure our oldest dd was conceived on our anniversary as well. None born on it though.

We actually planned our wedding for the day after dh's birthday, which works out well I think.

I went into labor with #2 on the evening of my fifth wedding anniversary....... she held out until after midnight, so she has her own special day. It was an exciting anniversary though!

I haven't, but my sister was born on my parent's third anniversary (which means mom spent it in the hospital, having a c-section - yay).

I don't really know what they did for their anniversary while we were growing up. My mom's birthday is between Christmas and New Year's, which made her very aware of how some children's birthdays get "lost". She never let that happen with my sister. I'm sure they did something, but I don't really know what.

As I went past my due date and kept on going, with our anniversary approaching, I remember telling my DH that I hoped that DD would not be born on our anniversary, so the 2 events would each have their own day. I was in labor all day of our 5th anniversary (starting at 3 a.m.), and by the end of the day I was shouting for her to come on out and that we could share the day. With what I now know to be her sense of humor, she held out a little longer and was born at 1:02 a.m. the following day.

DS was born 2 days before our first wedding anniversary. So we spent our first anniversary in the hospital with our new baby! It was quite exciting.

DS was born 3 days after our third wedding anniversary (and 8 days before our tenth dating anniversary). We enjoyed a lovely date night on our anniversary, with me waddling into the restaurant in all my massive glory.

One thing that's nice about having the two dates so close together is that my mom is always in town visiting for DS's birthday, so DH and I get to take advantage of the babysitting and go out for a nice dinner the night before or after DS's party.

My DD, now 7, was born on our third anniversary. We tried to conceive for a year, and being an older mom I knew we would only want one. She went 10 days past her due date and they started induction the day before our anniversary. We were thrilled when she was born on our special day - best gift of our lives! As far as celebrations, her birthday definitely is a bigger production, at least while she's so young

I already posted upthread but I just remembered that my sister was born 15 minutes after my parents 13th wedding anniversary. They went out to dinner my mother indulged in a glass of champagne, went to the bathroom where lucky for her her water broke while she was sitting on the toilet! Off to the hospital baby born 3 hours and 15 minutes later at 12:15!

Ds was conceived on our anniversary, but no one was born on our anniversary.

My grandmother had 4 girls all born within 2 months of each other...

exact timing if you look it up puts their conceptions all around grandma and grandpas wedding anniversary... does that count?

DD in my belly was conceived on or near Christmas and due just after my birthday... meaning I was conceived shortly before Christmas.

My little brother was conceived around my first birthday...

I'm pregnant with #3 who is due on August 19th. Our anniversary is the 21st so it's definitely possible.

DD1 was born on the 21st of December and DD2's birthday fell on Easter Sunday this year.

DH has a birthday present.

I was born 9 1/2 months after my parents wedding. Maybe not an anniversary, but quite possibly a honeymoon present.

My aunt once calculated all her sibs birthdays. She tracked them back to birthdays, anniversary, Mother's and Father's day.

My friend's oldest daughter is probably a Honeymoon Baby. I'd lay money on it. My youth leader growing up had a daughter born the day after the wedding.....the story is they didn't even know they were expecting but I am all kinds of skeptcial.

the wedding anniversary conception baby stories are actually pretty sweet.

limette - I'll definitely be checking your username in a month to see how that goes for you!

The conception calculations are funny to hear. I love kcstar's "birthdays, anniversary, Mother's & Father's day" one
