My niece almost shared her birthday with her one uncle. The doctor tried to induce the labor on his birthday but it didn't work. A week later on my parents Wedding Anniversary it took. So my niece was born on my parents 38th wedding anniversary. My mom said it was the best gift she ever got.

My youngest was born the day before my grandparents 48th wedding anniversary, they really wanted her to come on their anniversary personally I was glad she didnt make me hang about and came the day she was induced lol!

Yeah waiting another day would have been miserable judging from how my sister's was with being induced. She swore if she ever had another child no matter what she wouldn't be induced.

It is unusual to be born on 29th February so of course you usually celebrate it on 1st of March. My daughter was born on 27th June that same day as my sister's mother-in-law. We find it quite charming that they share the same birthday. It is excellent you share a birthday with your older child three years out of every four years.

My first daughters due date was my bday but luckily she ended up with her own birthday. I said when i got prego with her that there were two days I wanted to be mine and that was my bday and mothers day. The kids can have every other day of the year. I always wanted them both to have their own bdays. This one is due this saturday and I dont know anyone who has that day or even a day in the next few weeks so I think I am in the clear with her.

Well, my mom's birthday was December 27th, so 2 days after Christmas, then there is my Brother and Sister 1 yr. to day apart with Birthdays Feb 7th, and then my other brother and sisters birthdays are April 4th and 5th, so it was always quite interesting growing up. I am the only odd ball with a Birthday in August.

My youngest son almost shares a birthday with one of my uncles, who just happens to also be my godfather as well. LOL While I was pregnant this uncle had told me (jokingly, of course) that he wanted my son to be born on his birthday. Well, that didn't happen. He (my son) missed it by one day! LOL My oldest son doesn't share a birthday with anyone either. Though had I been in need of being induced he could have very well fell on mine as the doctor scheduled it for my birthday! Though with his, mine, and his little brother being so close together it doesn't really matter. My oldest son is 11 days before mine and my youngest son is 5 days after. That's close enough for me! LOL Happy mylotting!

My daughter's birthday is a few months after mine. But since her birthday is so close to Christmas, we might celebrate earlier in the year. Right now, we do a birthday month and that is working out. She gets small gifts all the month leading up to her birthday.

My oldest son's birthday is March 13. When he was born we were able to call my husbands mother at 6am to tell her "happy birthday, you have a new grandson!" My husband's birthday is also in march on the 3rd. My birthday and my 2nd son's birthday's are both in June.

Not everyone is luck to share the same birthday. My sons don't share birthday with any of us. But my elder brother share the same birthday (date and month) with his daughter. Each year they celebrated together which I find very touching.
