No, bc I prefer even days for some reason. I would choose May 12 or 14.

I'm assuming the baby needs to come out by C section for a reason and the extra week would be upping his/her chance of a bad event?

I would have the Friday the 13th baby and see how long it takes for them to notice.

I would prefer the 20th but more because otherwise their birthday will often overlap with Mother's Day weekend.

But if you could choose…would you be willing to be pregnant a full extra week to avoid giving birth on Friday the 13th?

Please allow your child to be born when it’s time, THEIR time, not your time, not your doctor’s time.

Friday the 13th wouldn't bother me. At all. One of my kids was born on the 13th, and though he wasn't born on a Friday, every few years his birthday falls on Friday the 13th, and I could not care less.

Ha, and I just read the OP more closely and realized you are talking about MAY 13, which is actually my kid's birthday.

My son was born on Friday the 13th! I went into labor Friday evening and I thought for sure he would be born on the 14th. Nope...came out right around 11:30pm. We call him Lucky as a nn.

Oh shut up. It’s a planned C-section.

If you do, please do some sort of funny pic take. Or as a shower theme.

That's different.

I’ll be the Debbie downer here but I wouldn’t pick Friday because hospitals are usually staffed w skeleton crews and new nurses thst can’t take off weekend. Plus specialists and lactation consultants may not be around. Experienced it myself for my second section.

No just because who knows what the kid would think about it? Obviously some kids would have a lot of fun with it but maybe you'll get an anxious one.

My DH was born on a 13th and he loves it when his birthday is on a Friday. It’s his lucky number.

Unless you’re 8 years old this isn’t a “thing” anybody thinks about
