Your Conception..

    Ok, I know the thought of your own parents getting down and dirty doing the horizontal monster mash isn't exactly the most pleasant one, especially this early in the week.
    But today is my Birthday, and it got me thinking.

    I must have been conceived in and around Valentines day.
    There must be a pretty high percentage of the population with birthdays in November.. Febuary 14th being a fairly universally popular date for romantic sexy time and all.

    Have any of you worked out when you were "planted"?
    I've asked a few of my mates and it's amazing how many people have a birthday roughly three months from one of there parents, or there wedding anniversary, a holiday that they still talk about, an infamous country wide blackout.. Whatever..

    So.. When were you conceived?

    Happy Birthday!!

    I was concieved around wedding anniversary time.

    the thought of my parents going at it doesn't bother me, because they each look like me, and are therefore very attractive.

    I'm not going to even start figuring out the date, however happy birthday!

    On a lighter note: Bored in Science class years back. My mate slagged me so I proceeded to write down calculations on a page (I knew he was 3 weeks overdue as we discussed it beforehand).

    He questioned my scribbling fury but I ignored him until I finally announced "March 12th 1984".
    "What's that?" says he.
    "That my fatheaded friend, is the day your folks f*cked and you were conceived. Yes, your parents had sex that day."

    He looked so crestfallen and didn't insult me for the rest of the class.

    Sperm can live inside of a woman for 72 hours, conception can happen anytime over that period so tracking back from date of birth does not work.

    I was conceived around harvest time, one of the busiest times in the year for a farmer....all my mother remembers is bringing hang sangwiches out to my father when he took a break, the rest is me :pac:

    he was concieved the day before i was born... maybe his parents were celebrating my arrival into this world?

    The wedding night :D

    obviously the old fella wasn't that drunk ;)

    Following on from that my mother claims that the worst 21st birthday present she got was me :D

    I was born roughly 9 months after my dad's birthday. My brother was born nine months (to the day) after Christmas.

    Weird...

    A term isn't exactly 9 months for every pregnancy either.

    The phrase "in or around" was used in the OP.

    I think it's quite clear that this thread isn't about exact dates, but rather approximations.

    :rolleyes:

    Yeah cos all the forums I mod are mondo seriousoso

    That vid is pretty funny.

    In one of my friends family 3 of the kids have their birthdays with in a 5 day spread which is roughly 9 and a bit months after their Da's birthday.
    If thier parents had of had a birthday blowjob tradition none of them would have happened.

    Well I'll be honest, the date was made up simply for the story but it is around then :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    I was supposed to be born on my Mam's birthday (16th December) but I arrived 5 days early on the 11th. So I guess I was conceived on March 16th 1989.
    My oldest sister was born 9 months and 3 days after the parents got married, so it might have been a shotgun wedding! :P
    Or else she was conceived on the honeymoon.... *shudders*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭R0ot


    My sister brought to my attention the other day a Pregnancy book my mum had when she had her first child (my brother). Inside the book was written our 3 names and the month/year of conception. :pac:

    Pregnany is dated from last menstral period (LMP), found that out when we started trying (we suceeded!)...babies can be late or early though so best ask your parents if you really want to know (I know and it is a mixed blessing).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,256 ✭✭✭metaoblivia


    December 1981. My mother's birthday and Christmas falls during that month, and apparently there was a lot of celebrating going on that month!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    By the doctors calculations I was born 2 weeks early, but my Mom maintains I was on time because she knows when I was conceived, the night of a friends wedding, apparently my (now separated) parents were never exactly all over each other...I'm also an only child, I slept between my parents til I was 6, Mom says I was the best contraception ever :D

    My friends family is hilarious though, there's 4 kids, all 4 birthdays are in 2 weeks of the year, the 2 daughters in one week and the 2 sons in another, all suspiciously coinciding with Christmas and their parents anniversary, clearly two very fertile people who should never be left together when drunk and celebrating!

    I would trust your mum on this one...we know to within 3 days the date our impending arrival was concieved.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,228 ✭✭✭bluto63


    I was conceived around November 1988. Can't think of any good reason other than they were looking to have me :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭redfacedbear


    My Birthday is in late September - so Christmas shenanigans from my parents. Although, I was told (while I was a teenager and still bothered by the thoughts of my parents having a sex life) that I was planned and that my parents were thought of as slightly odd for using contraception after they got married (this was the early 1970s in holy catholic Ireland :pac:)

    I was conceived when Hurricane Charley hit Ireland in August 1986, the entire surrounding area was flooded and my parents were housebound for a few days! :D In times of only RTÉ 1 & 2 what were a happy couple to do I suppose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,808 ✭✭✭rizzee


    Who cares? Thats sick. The images in my head.. I hate you OP

    3 of us in my family have birthday in the same week...13th, 19th and 20th July. Something exciting must have been happening around October every year!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,662 ✭✭✭RMD


    November baby, which only means 1 thing. I like to consider myself planned though since I was supposed to be born in Octoboer, not some drunken accident like all them regular November babies :p

    we were both conceived around 30th November....

    I know a disproportionate amount of my friends have birthdays around the same time as me in August, I'm reckoning it must be the Christmas season got all the auld wrinklies into sex mode. Terrible thoughts though!
