[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. So the other issue is that my other kid's birthday is 4 weeks before DD's and my own birthday is 3 weeks before DD's. We're pretty stacked on birthdays here. Only DD really wants a big party though, my other child doesn't want one and just wants a family party. [/quote]

My kids birthdays are closer than that, and honestly I have often schedule the one whose birthday is later, for the earlier party, just because that's when things were available.  Like DS1 wants his best friend there, and best friend is at the beach that week, so we push it back a month, and then DS2, really wants the water park, but that means we need Dad to be off work to manage the boys changing room thing, and he's only available one weekend this month and it's 3 weeks before kid's birthday.

Really, I don't think it matters.  If this is the thing she really wants, I'd work hard to make sure the baby's birthday doesn't disrupt it.  "Yay, one of the great things about having a new baby sister or brother is that you can have your party a whole month earl!y!  You won't have to wait!  Isn't that awesome!  Lucky girl!"  My kids at 5 would have fallen for that hook line and sinker. [/quote]
