If you are planning on day care (which is tax deductible), its better to have more income in the second calendar year than the first. Still, it is impossible to precisely time these things. Babies have a mind of their own on when to come out!! :) FJ: Sometime in the first half of the year (March to June) would be ideal.

If it's all the same to you, when is the most tax-efficient time to have a child? My instinct tells me the middle of the year. That way, income is divided evenly between 2 calendar years to minimize marginal tax rates. Thanks, FJ Hi CC, this question may be a bit off-topic.
