Your Aries baby may have a natural glass-half-full mentality. They are known to be optimistic and positive go-getters. Think of a super encouraging aerobics instructor. Their personality is not to be confused with hypothermia. Those born under the Aries sign usually have a positive mood and disposition, so you can expect smiles and a sunny attitude from your little one.

You might not think of this as a benefit, especially when you’re trying to get your Aries baby down for the night after a long day, but there is a potential silver lining: You may be able to take them with you to that 8 p.m. dinner reservation when they get a little older. According to a 2009 study, babies born in spring and summer went to bed and reached the midpoint of sleep later than those born in fall and winter. So don’t be surprised if you have a night owl on your hands! Hey, maybe this means they’ll sleep in too (wishful thinking).

Another fun fact about Aries babies: Your child is in excellent company by sharing a sign with some amazing celebrities and historical figures. Famous Aries include Lil Nas X, Lady Gaga, Paul Rudd, Reese Witherspoon, Celine Dion, Eddie Murphy, Leonardo da Vinci, Jackie Chan, and so many more.

Your Aries baby may have fewer health issues than other signs. Studies have shown that asthma and allergies are less common in spring babies.

These season-based findings surprisingly extend to food allergies as well, with one 2010 study finding that Boston-based children born in fall and winter were more likely to have food allergies. Scientists believe it’s due to the reduced exposure to sunlight and UVBs during these seasons, so if you live in a year-round sunny place, this may not be the case.

Aries are known for their driven, competitive nature. They’re strong-willed and tenacious (just like their sign’s animal, the ram). This will make for some fun and intense family game nights or trips to the mini-golf course. Be ready for everything to become a game, which can work in your favor when you say things like, “let’s see who can get their shoes on fastest.”

Aries season goes from March 20 through April 19, and if your baby is born on the March side of the sign, their birthstone is an aquamarine, a beautiful blue-toned gem. Lucky April babies get the diamond as their month’s stone, so feel free to buy yourself some diamond jewelry to commemorate their birth.

You may be raising a future boss in your Aries baby as studies show spring-born babies are more likely to become CEOs when compared to babies born in summer. This isn’t exactly carved in stone but is more likely a result of the fact that spring babies are older than their summer-born classmates. This phenomenon, sometimes called the “birthdate effect” posits that older kids may perform better academically and athletically.

Having an Aries baby may mean raising someone who develops an insistent personality. Sometimes their behavior might be confused with stubbornness or pushiness, but only by people who don't know your Aries child well. Like the Ram, Aries are known for standing their ground and fighting for what they want until they achieve it, which can be a good thing (sometimes, heh).
