Is it cool or crazy for my sons to have the same birthday?

Question

My son was born on 7/26/2017, and my second is due 7/28/2019.  Since I had a C section with my first and have GD now, I need to schedule a C section for the second one bc they won’t let me go past 40 weeks.  If he comes before, great.  BUT I scheduled my C section for 7/26! I think it will be so cool for them to have the same birthday, two years apart. It’ll be a fun fact about them as they grow up.  It’s also kind of a tradition in my family - I’m part of a triplet, and my sister has twins (the only other kids in the family).  What do you think, am I crazy?

Answer

I’m probably psychotic but I love having my birthday be just my day and not sharing it with someone else (at least in my family). Like it’s cool when celebrities share my birthday or even friends, but for me I always felt special having it be my day within my family. But like I said I’m slightly psychotic and a princess who loves her birthday so who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think it’s just personal preference.

Answer

My scheduled c section is on my birthday. I didn’t really have a choice since I have to deliver early due to previa, and they were all booked up around the time they wanted me to have it. I’m starting to think it’s pretty cool, the way I see it is since I was born in the morning I will have my breakfast brunch and then since she will be in the afternoon, she can have the rest of the day 😊

Answer

My sister and I are 2 years and 2 days apart. For a good part of my childhood it was always a joint birthday, and I never felt like it was my day, it was our day. I get it's cheaper to have one party, but I never felt like my birthday was a big deal until we were older.

Answer

My sister and I are two years apart born on the same day. It was always super special for us to share a birthday, and I love telling people because they always seem shocked lol it made us closer and I wouldn’t change it even if I could!

Answer

My manager’s 3 kids all share the same birthday, each 2 years apart. I think it’s pretty damn awesome!

Answer

My girls have the same birthday two years apart. They don’t know any different. They’re now 6 and 8. They get mistaken for twins all the time so it’s fun to tell people they do have the same birthday but not the same day.

Answer

My brother is exactly 3 years older than me & we have the same birthday!! I always loved it as a kid honestly. It was so special & fun!!

Answer

My daughter was born 9/16/15. My son was scheduled to be induced 9/16/16, but came on his own 9/14/16. I thought it’d be so cool for them to have the same birthday one year apart but he didn’t wanna wait the two days 😂

Answer

My babies were conceived on the same day a year apart. It will be interesting to see if they share a birthday.

Answer

I am pregnant with #3 due July 12th,
Same due date they gave me for baby #2, but he ended up being born 7/7 (Both boys)
I wanted them to at least be a week a part so birthdays aren’t so close, but being induced 7/5 with baby #3. So they will only be 2 days apart 😂 unless this one comes earlier
