I know this doesn't count, but one of my favorite fictional TV characters was: Sue Heck from the Middle.

I was due then. I ended up going to the hospital on Feb. 1 though (baby born next morning)
It was like a whole month early, only because it was February 😂
Had it not been a leap year, she would have been due March 1st...

I'm due Friday, hoping baby doesn't come tomorrow because then the poor kid is stuck with a non birthday 😅

2 non birthdays, it’s also Adar aleph. I wonder how many people have that.

I was also confused for a minute. She was due Feb 29 and gave birth Feb 1 (about a month early). As a side note, if it wasn't a leap year, she would have been due March 1 and then the babys birthday would be exactly a month early.

One of my siblings was born in Adar aleph and almost never gets to have a birthday.
Even though he’s in his 30’s he only had a birthday around 13 times.

My DH was born end of Adar aleph. Anyone born a few weeks after him in Adar Bais had his bar mitzvah before DH because that year was only 1 Adar!

My bday is also in Adar Aleph and I totally don't feel like I never have a birthday. I just always celebrated it in Adar. I never even thought about it that way that it's not the real day.
When people say Aleph Adar babies don't have a birthday I don't get it, A bar mitzvah boy celebrates his BM in Adar and no one says he should wait till the next leap year.
