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

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

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.

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.

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

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


Oh shut up. It’s a planned C-section.

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.

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

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

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.

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