Does that mean our EDD get moved up a day you think? I mean really it's just a day, but I wonder if there will be some February 29th babies!

    My husband and I were actually talking about this the other night. We couldn't decide if we would do February 28th or March 1st for the baby's birthday on non-leap years.

    It means that since there is an extra day in February, you would subtract a day for any due date after the 29th. Most of the due date calculators take it into consideration, but the wheel at the doctor's office does not.

    I'm due 3/3 and since this is my second there's a greater chance of going earlier. Guess I've got a shot at a leap year baby!

    Of course there will be February 29th babies. It's still a calendar day.

    It will be exciting to see who out of the Feb and March moms have leap year babies.  I don't expect to (3/17) but some of us certainly will.

    I taught a kid last year w a 2-29 birthday.  I think it's totally cool.  He turned 19 last year but we said he was really only 4 haha.

    I was just thinking about this yesterday... if this LO comes as late as my son did, it's likely it'll be a leap year baby.

    So did I. With the amount of pregnant women on this board and on February, at least one person is bound to give birth that day.

    Ok so I am ashamed to admit it, but--- I was SO confused as to why dr's wheel and online calculator were not the same! LOL!Embarrassed Can I blame it on pregnancy brain!?

    So I guess that means I'm actually due March 9th.  I am so ditzy lately--- I apologize in advance....Embarrassed

    Yeah I'm due March 2nd, so I have a solid chance of a leap year baby. I think it would be really cool.

    so this finally makes sense to me, i knew it was a leap year but didn't think about it much. i was always told to get your due date you subtract 3 months from your lmp date then add a week. so last time i was 10/9 and due 7/16. this time was 6/11 and due 3/17 - so now i know why not the 18th!

     

    am i the only one who thinks being a leap year baby would suck? you would never get to celebrate your REAL bday? and which day would you pick, 2/28 or 3/1?
