Wow!

[jessitron]

How cool! Due dates exactly two years apart. Bang on!

I'm going to be very curious to see if your new one is born on the same day.
Did your labor start naturally with him?

I took the test on Sept 1 for both DD and the one on the way, and their due dates are/were 5-8-04 and 5-11-07... I thought ours were close, but you beat us by a mile!

[stanleymama]

Cool!! What a fun memory!

[MonkeyPrincess]

Hey that happened to me, too!

#1 and #4 were both due 11/8
#2 and #3 were both due 5/10

As if that weren't enough, they have really wierd number stuff going on...

Nick was born on 11/6, Christopher was born on 5/6 - 6 months apart to the day, on the 6th

Tori was born on 4/30, Christopher was born on 5/6 - 6 days apart

Tori was born at 6:05, Christopher's birthday backwards
Christopher was born at 6:11, Nick's birthday backwards

Oh, and this babys "due date" is 6 days before my daughters birthday, although I don't really use a day in particular, that's what it worked out to on the wheel.

[mightymoo]

Wow, you must have like clockwork cycles! I'd be really freaked if they end up with the same birthday though...

We did a similar thing my dd's b-day is 5/26 and this one in due 5/20 although I know it will be 5/26 because my brother and I share the same b-day but 3 years apart! Just be sure they get their own birthday party. I always hated sharing a party growing up. I still to this day call my brother on our birthday and remind him it was MY birthday first!!

yep totally natural... no herbs or nothin. he was born 2 days before due date so i hadn't even started down that road.

Although there was a serious thunderstorm that night and at 3am my water broke... which flung me into labor... i tend to think the barometric pressure might have broke my water.. Over the history of my midwife attending births she had only a handful of moms go into labor simultaneously and i am in the proud number. another mom went into labor at the same time.. check out my birth story for more... it in my siggy.

crazy stuff

how cute! my step sisters were born on the same day 2 years apart. One of them was really premature though

[Synchro246]

I wonder if there'll be another storm. . .
