September which I've never liked because my birthday conincided with the start of the school year and everyone was always too busy with classes and activities and making new friends so no one remembered my birthday, not even teachers. I guess having a birthday around the busy December holidays is at least as bad too.

My New York City SIL always said that about her September 9 birthday.

I hate January with a passion. Only month that's worse is February. Brrrrrr.

I was born in November during a full moon. My mom told me how my dad drove her down the beach, on the way to the hospital, and the moon was full.

Born in December.

Right between two of the biggest holidays of the year, when everybody is overweight, overspent, and SICK of parties!

March (1st) here!

I have a nephew that was born on Christmas Day, and he got TONS of presents. Made out like a bandit. Still does, and he's almost 35 :lol3:

My parents never even celebrated my birthday the first 3 years of my life because they didn't want me to get spoiled, plus I had inherited all my older sibs dolls and what not.  They said they celebrated my birthday in March and gave me all the presents sent to me in December by my grandparents.  They lived in Atlanta so they never knew I didn't get my presents when they sent them.  

But, before I turned 4, my grandmother, bless her, found out what my parents had been doing.  


She made SURE my 4th birthday was a real birthday party ON the day! Lol.

I was always gypped for my birthday. Though it was January 17 my parents said Xmas had just gone by & I more or less didn't need more gifts. I still think this is ridiculous. Birthdays should always be celebrated.

You would appreciate a link I can't post in the open forum because there's a cuss word in it, lol, so I'll send it to you by pm.  Although it has to do with all the reasons why it's bad being born in the month of December, it's along the same lines as what you said above.  I agree every one should have separate gifts one for birthday one for Christmas.  Although I did get some birthday presents, they were wrapped in Christmas paper :(

Mine is January 21st. I'd like to forget it at this point. I try to be away from home that day hoping Father Time won't be able to find me and I can stay the same age. Sadly, that doesn't work. I must have a GPS in the back of my neck or something. 
 


I have gotten gifts wrapped in tinfoil before.
