But, as someone who had kids born in November, January and May, some months are definitely easier than others.  The November newborn was brutal with days getting shorter and shorter, and the weather generally being too nasty to head out.  The May newborn was way more joy with me putting her in a stroller or a sling and heading out for outdoor events.  The November kid got the benefit of “natural” red shirting, though.[/quote]

+1 but playing along....

October is a great birth month (that's one of my kids') - as a PP said, you get to be one of the oldest in the class and that's a good thing, good weather usually for birthday parties. Only downside IMO is they are still very little during the winter cold/flu season.

Early Spring (March-April) is also a good time IMO, middle of the grade agewise, after the worst of cold/flu season but don't have to worry about a newborn in extreme summer heat (I had a July baby and felt like we couldn't go anywhere when it was so hot).[/quote]
