Anyone Due Around Christmas Day/New Years Day?

[tallulah73]

Even though my due date is 19th Jan im full term a couple of days after Christmas day and i feel this LO will come early.
Is anyone due around Christmas Day or New Years day?
Do you know what the staff situation is like in hospitals & the delivery suites at this time of year?

*Oh goodness just noticed ive moved up to second to last baby!*

Hiya - i'm due on Xmas Day and am very excited (but i bet he wont arrive on the day)
Not sure about the hospital thing but they must have enough staff there.

Good luck ladies

I'm due 8 Jan, but like you think this one could be early - my last was. I really want to avoid Christmas Day, boxing day, New years eve and new years day if I can help it!
Re staffing, they have the same quota as normal - I asked!

Lots of us due around then! Re staffing it will be the same as any other day but I'm hoping the car park will be a bit quieter (less out patients appointments) if we have to go in!! The midwives seem to love Christmas babies.
