Which would you rather?

I wouldn't deliberately have a child born on they day of someone's death but everyone to their own thing, I guess.

Since your son feels it would be a good way to commemorate his grandfather's passing, then that day is a good day. 
We have had several in the family who just happened to be born on someone else's birthday, so they feel it is special.

My husband shared his dad's birthday.  My son shared his great-grandmother's birthday.

Thank you jkhanson, I'm not sure of any of it now because his wife too would like the baby born on her Grandmothers birthday. I told them how about agreeing to somewhere in between then...but it will all come down to when the baby is ready, so we'll just have to wait and see

I'm sorry but I don't think he has the right to make any decisions one way or the other. It is not his body that is going to be sliced open and gutted. I hear all about your family what his wife's family have to say about this? Being a wife doesn't make her his property. What does she have to say? It is after all her body. This is abusive at a level I can't even begin to explain and you published this?  :

sliced open and gutted? i'm not even going to justify this with an answer WOW

I'm sorry but I don't think he has the right to make any decisions one way or the other. It is not his body that is going to be going through such a drastic change. I think it is incredibly immature to play games like that with someones life. What would be a better focus is his wife's health and what would be best for her and the baby.

Play games? what is wrong with you? the baby is going to come regardless ONLY when it's ready...it could be the 20th as due or it could be the 10th only the baby knows for sure...I just asked a simple question, why are you making a federal case out of this...he adores his wife and noooooooooooooooo he would NEVER have her have the baby before it's time of course...omg I dont believe i'm even sitting here discussing this with someone like yourself..i'm sorry too!!!!!!!!!!

It's her body!!!Not yours not his! It's her decision to make and his to support! I started to apologize because I felt I was too harsh initially. I see now that the problem is that this is about an oppression of her, and you don't like that you've been found out. I hate to break it to you but you have no rights and you don't get to decide when a child will be born! What is wrong with you! Are you so full of yourself that you can't see that? This is her decision to make and your son should support his wife. You should keep their intimate business out of a public forum.

My son and his wife are expecting a baby in July via C-section. The babies due date just happened to fall on July 20th the same date my Dad passed away. his wife's Grandmother who is still alive her birthday is July 10th. My son thought it would be nice to have the birth on his Grandfathers passing day...kind of "a life goes out, then a life comes in" many find that a bit eari tho, what do you think? 

Your wife grandmother will surely understand if you have the child on the same date your dad passed away. Your other child if a C-section could be on your wife's Grandmother birthday.
