December birthdays

How many here are unfortunate to have December birthdays?
As a twin who celebrates a birthday the week before Christmas, I used to hate having 'joint' presents as a child.
Now I just feel guilty for my family as it's another stress for them to think about at an already expensive time of year.
I have immediate relatives who also share December as their birthday month. Sister in-law is 2 days before me and my mother's is boxing day. I also had an uncle who's was Christmas day!
Every year I threaten to change the date to May ?? but I never do.

              • I’m a Boxing Day baby, and I have twin cousins born on Christmas Eve. My family has always made sure to mark my birthday separately from the Christmas celebrations, and, in my adult years, friends who aren’t away on holiday come around for a Christmas “recovery”/birthday party. Such fun, as I never had to go to school or work on my birthday! 👏

                • Youngest son was born on December 5th. Always get him separate birthday and up until now separate Christmas presents. No longer celebrate Christmas.
