Should i wait TTC so my kids dont have close birthdays?

[twiggy327]

My DD's birthday is August 20. If i conceive this cycle my next child will be due August 15, 2013. Im not sure if we should wait TTC until next month or give it a go. This will be our 3rd attempt. I dont know if it will be unfair to make my daughter share her birthday month or possibly even her birthday with her little bro/sis. We always have a huge family picnic to end the summer and celebrate DD. I planned on having the same kind of parties for my next but is it too much to have 2 huge parties in the same month? I am 100% against a joined party. They only get one special day a year thats all about them and i dont want them to have to share it. DD will be 5 in 2013. Is it time to have "friends" parties with kids from school at chuck e cheese or somewhere similar instead of family?? If that is the case then i wouldnt have a problem giving DD a "big kid" party and having the babies party take over the end of summer blow out party. I dont think people will come to 2 big parties only a week or 2 apart. I have a week to figure out if i should TTC or not! HELP!!

not to mention i would be totally heartbroken if i went into labor and missed the party!

It wouldn't hurt to start trying hun it takes many women 2-3 months to catch that egg.

Or maybe not ttc this month but chart ur temps or do opk so u know for next month when u ov so u know when u should be bd-ing x
