DD was born 7/7 & we had her christening 10/14...

I'd definitely wait until after the holidays....maybe Feb?

My nieces were born in Nov & they had one of their christenings in March & the other in Feb.

Re: How far after your dc was born, did you have the baptism?

3 1/2 months, probably would have had it sooner but we had to wait for:
- weather to be nice enough to have it outside
-inlaws to come up from Florida
-DH to actually be home

Robbie was born in May and baptized in January.

Noah had his baptism ON his first birthday! Two birds/One partyChat Icon

Clearly I don't think there is a problem at all in waiting until April. Or May, June, July or August for that matter!!Chat Icon

Re: How far after your dc was born, did you have the baptism?

Both of my kids were 6 weeks old. I will do it at the same time for this one. If I could possibly get it together before 6 weeks I will.

I believe in baptizing as early as possible but not everyone does.

I think if you are comfortable waiting then you should. It's all personal opinion.

Emilia was born 11/3 and her baptisim is 7/12. I wanted to wait until the nicer weather too and for the holidays to go by. Then I just decided to wait to the summer so I could have a backyard party.
