Just before summer/spring time, because I like the idea of walking my new baby in the park and it's only possible when the weather is nice. It also because alot of school term start just after the summer so if the school have an age restriction your child is not going to be affected unlike a child who is born in the winter he might have to enroll the next term.. xx

I would think in the Spring. Cause the weather isn't too cold or hot; its just right.

There's pros and cons about both. I had my first on Dec 17th in Jersey. It was nice because getting hot was not an option. I was nice a cool and never had a problem. Saved me some money on gas bills in the winter....everything. You get to bundle your baby up and cuddle him and keep him/her warm. But, on the other hand, it's dangerous weather....what if there was a snow storm and you went into labor. It's cold outside, so you really don't want to go on walks with the baby and get back into shape. My worst was that the power went out when he was a couple months old and we had to bring him into our room and sleep with him to make sure he stayed warm. I was so worried about him and it getting cold. Oh, and by the time summer rolls around, you can bring the baby to the beach and pool.
Now, my second was born in the beginning of May. It was nice because I could take him out on walks right away. It was nice weather outside. You didn't have to bundle him up and make sure he wasn't cold. You didn't have to warm up the car first. The worst was if you are a beach person, which I am. I really couldn't take him to the beach, or if I did, he had to be covered up because he wasn't supposed to have sunscreen on. He didn't want to be covered up....it was too hot. But, he had a lot less colds than my winter baby too.
So, it could go either way. It depends on what is better for you and what you would rather prefer. Good luck!

I think it depends in what country you live. E.g. here is Israel the hardest months are August and September, when it's awfully hot and Jan and Feb when the rain falls all the time and it's cold. My son was born on Aug 26, and that was good because he experienced only 1 hot month. We didn't have to go out, so we were enjoying coolness at home thanks to the conditioner. This summer we will most probably fly to my husbands' parents to the Ukraine. So we won't get too hot I suppose.
