Destined for Greatness? Your Baby’s Personality Based on Birth Month

634 Shares

Is it possible to predict a baby’s personality? You can certainly try!

According to some, in order to find out just what your little one will be like when they grow older, all you have to do is look to his or her birth month.

Whether you believe it or not, have a read of the common characteristics of people born in each month to see if it matches your cheeky cherubs.

Remember, this is just for fun. Although science does support the idea that seasons affect personality, there is not adequate evidence to suggest a baby’s personality is shaped by our birth month.


Baby Personality by Birth Month

Leading the Way: January Babies

January babies are said to be born leaders, oozing with independence and charisma. They are the ones racing for the gate at the playground and checking back to make sure everyone is watching them. You can also expect your January baby to be shouting “me do it” A LOT.

Other traits: Charming, creative, clever, cautious, motivated, ambitious and stubborn

They are the toddlers who are more than happy to share their toys and give kisses to other kids when they scrape their knees. Naww.

Other traits: Intelligent, loyal, shy, highly sensitive

As September babies grow older, they will have no problems cleaning up their toys and keeping their rooms tidy which is a huge bonus for their mums!

Baby Personality Predictions 

Of course, there are A LOT more factors to baby personality than just birth month. Many experts swear that a child’s temperament is shaped by the birth order (oldest are the leaders, youngest are the attention-seekers, middle are the peace-keepers). There is also the argument for nurture over nurture, which suggests that how we raise our kids is what shapes their personality.

There is really no way to know for sure why your child is a cheeky little spunk, an independent soul or a free-spirited wild child. But, whatever personality they have, make sure you nurture it, love it, and celebrate it.

After all, it’s what makes your baby so amazing!
