Expecting a baby in August? Congratulations! Here's what's great about August birthdays. 

1. August birthstone is peridot, which is associated with peace and happiness. 

2. Your August baby's flower is the gladiolus, or 'sword lily,' which represents calmness and integrity. 

3. Babies born in August are either a Leo (July 23 - Aug 22) or Virgo (Aug 23 - Sep 22). Leo kids are bold and outgoing. Virgos are dedicated and hardworking. 

4. Your August baby might share a birthday with either Barack Obama (August 4), Mila Kunis (August 14), Jennifer Lawrence (August 15), or Hayden Panettiere (August 21.)

Your August baby may be born on one of these big days including National Watermelon Day on August 3, National Lazy Day (Yes, that's a real thing!) on August 10 or August 26 which is the Women's Equality Day.
