Mine was october 17, one month after birth. That is a very long time, but I was the shortest time of the family. Everyone else had to wait months and months...why that is the trend (to wait soooo long) I'll never know. I guess it is so mom can recover and organize a big party, but jeepers creepers, what if something happened to the baby? All for a party? These days people wait for over a year, sometimes 2!! :o
