We don't, well except the cat who was born on dh's birthday.
But wondered if many do?

My sister was born on my brother's first birthday and my other brother's birthday is two days before theirs ... born two days before my sister's second birthday and elder brother's 3rd birthday - so my mum had 3 under 3 ! May was always my 'skint' month. My birthday is in March, so I am special

We have loads of other doubles too - aunties and cousins and uncles etc ....

me and my aunt have the same birthday

but much more unusual is my husband and his 2 brothers were all born in the 3 different months beginning with J and on the 17th!!!!! bizarre.

My DD and brother share the same birthday. But I say I just held on (DD was a week late) to get back at him for getting married on my 7th wedding anniversary !

Seashells · 28/09/2006 11:44

Dp shares his birthday with his siter and his dad!
dd shares her birthday with her auntie.
All my 3 dc were born on a tuesday evening (I know that doesn't count but it's still weird)

Seashells · 28/09/2006 11:46

*sister obviously, not siter, doh!

Not with a family member but 5 of my closest friends all living in the same village share the same birthday 27th April ( but ha ha - I'm the youngest ) now how spooky is that ?
And we're all totally dissimilar in many respects!!

DD shares her birthday with her aunt - my SIL - woke her up by phoning at 5 am from delivery suite to tell her and wish her a happy birthday. Thankfully she was delighted to be woken!

My DD was born on my birthday 2weeks late!! I used to make a real thing about my birthday.... treating myself to a facial, friends round etc and I never ever thought she would arrive then!

My birthday was on a Monday and I went in to hospital to be induced on the Friday before... I was sent home Friday night, went back in on Sat and after a long long labour, she arrived 10 minutes into my birthday on the Monday!

Mind you, it was the best present I could ever have had, but my girlfriends - knowing what a fuss I make of my birthday - p**d themselves laughing.

My birthday was then put on the back burner for a few years!

DD is now nearly 15 and we decide who was which 'birthday' weekend.... and it works well!

My brother and I share a irthday - 2 years apart. Worst birthday present i ever had! LOL Had to share every birthday party with his stinky friends! I've also got a cousin born onthe same date.
My Dad's birthday is the same as another cousin's.
My sister shares her birthday (same year I think) with yet another cousin. Mind you, I've got a huge extended family so some birthdays are bound to be shared.

I am my dad's 30th Birthday present!

Seems I hung in there for an extra week to be there

Mummymonster · 28/09/2006 16:29

Oh and my DS is my BIL's 46th birthday present...hey I've always got an excuse to avoid birthday get togethers now LOL

MegaLegs · 28/09/2006 16:32

Nearly - we have just had our mad birthday week with my dad on the 18th, DS1 on the 19th and DH on the 20th Sept. I was in labour all through my dads birthday 7 years ago but ds held on and managed to squeeze his own day in between the other two. He made a very handy 30th birthday pressie for dh as I didn't quite get to the shops!

my mum grew up in N Ireland and shares a b'day with her brother. What made it even more of a suprise was the fact that they were Catholic and were born a few years apart on a big Protestant day 12th July. When my mum was little she thought all the marching bands were out for her birthday
