February 2012 Moms

Leap y ear babies?

Any leap year babies? DH just pointed out that 2012 has a Feb 29th!! I think it would be a neat birthday. What's everyone's thoughts about having a leap year baby??? Is it too early for BFPs due on 2/29?

Re: Leap y ear babies?

  • No it's not too early for 2/29 bfps, I think it passed already! And for most of us, we may have our baby that day anyway if we're late! At first (my EDD IS 2/21)  I was not liking the idea at all, but then after thinking about it, I think it would be really cool! :)

  • That would be a pretty neat birthday . . . I would think the leap year dates would start showing up here shortly . . . I'm a little over 5 weeks with an EDD at February 22 so I would think early next week there should be some leap year due dates =)

  • i have irregular periods, and i was not temping while ttc..i don't have an "official" EDD yet, but i'm hoping it gets close to 2/29.


  • Eh, DH thinks it would be cool. I think it would be annoying to have people making jokes about only having a birthday once every 4 years. I'm 6 days off so it's theoretically possible, but bleh. I'd rather not.

  • I would rather have a Valentine's Day baby instead of a Leap Year baby.  However, I will be estatic whatever day she/he shows up.

    That's kind of how I felt about it, but my best friend (whose birthday is April Fool's Day) keeps telling me how awesome it is to have your birthday on a minor "holiday," because no one ever forgets your birthday. She loved having a memorable birthday when she was growing up.

    I am! I don't care what day I have it on as long as it's healthy :) I think it would be fun to have such a unique date for a birthday.
