2893. Canyon Stewart of California, USA born 1996 at 3:15pm
TWINS born on Leap year!! My due date was March 20th, but the twins had another idea. They decided their birthday should be the same as grandmas'. . . Leap year day. needless to say, she was pleased. So now grandma was 14 last year and the twins had their first b-day. Forever young. Does that mean they stay at home longer. I hope so.

I was adopted and don't know the time I was born. My husband is also a Leap Baby and we met because of our birthdays. Someone was reading horoscopes at college and we both said our Birthday was Feb.29. I went home that night and told my mom I met a guy who was born on leap day. He had the brightest blue eyes. She said that it would be funny if I married him. The rest is history. I also knew a girl who was born on the same day and her name was Mindy with a "y".

500. Mary E. Frownfelter Blandford of Michigan, USA born 1948 at 11:50am
I was fortunate to have a twin sister born on leap year day with me. Fortunately we were born around noon or else we wouldn't have shared the same birth day. (Maxine was born 20 minutes after I was.) Are there any other leap year twins out there? My son, who turns 16 this year thinks it is really great that he is "older" than his mother.

1478. Kim Martin of Ohio, USA born 1960 at 1:00pm
My most special Leap Day birthday, was my 7th in 1988. My son, Christopher, was born at 1:04pm. It was on a Monday. I was in labor over the weekend and I guess my son decided he was going to wait and give me a great birthday present!

1479. Chris Martin of Ohio, USA born 1988 at 1:04pm
My mom, Kim Martin - 1960, and I share the same birthday.

2202. Ross W. Shriver of Ohio, USA born 1956
My sister Debra Shriver Smith is also a leap day baby. She was born in 1952. To our knowledge we were the first such sibblings in the USA. We think there is only one other set of sibblings, like us, maybe in Indiana. If anyone can help us we would really like to be able to verify this.

2336. Deb Shriver Smith of Ohio, USA born 1952 at 12:30 A.M.
Yes I have met another Leap Day Baby, He is my Brother. He was born on my "First Real Birthday." My Dad used to say "I have a son born on my daughter's first birthday and a daughter born in between them. There are no twins and all are full brother and sisters with no premature births. Unless it was close to Leap Year few people could figure it out.

2270. Katie Luchino of New Jersey, USA born 1996 at 12:43 pm
My brother Steven and I were born on the same day -- we're twins.

2708. Kassidy of Santa Rosa, California, USA born 2000 at 11:54 A.M.
Kassidy and Bryanna are identical twins who are proud to be born on leap year day. We were born in Petaluma California to our proud parents Kevin and Ellen and our very proud older sister, Jeanine and Jeanette. We are hoping to find out if any other twins were born on leap year 2000, as my mom and dad don't know anyone else born on leap year day, let alone twins. We hope to make friends with other leap year babies in the years to come.

2709. Bryanna of Santa Rosa, California, USA born 2000 at 12:02 P.M.
Twin Sister of Kassidy.

2749. Sean Levesque of British Columbia, Canada born 2000 at 8:55 pm
My brother and I are identical twins born on Leap Day 2000. My mom almost didn't make it to the hospital because she didn't believe she was in labour. We were a month early and she thought she was imagining the contractions because she had always wanted a leap day baby. Now she has two :0)

2750. Brian Levesque of British Columbia, Canada born 2000 at 9:30 pm
I'm Sean's twin born on February 29, 2000.

2826. Megan of Singapore born 1996 at 1630 hrs
Hi all, I'm a Leaper born to another Leaper! My mommy, Adele, was born in 1972.

3015. Barbara Stoner of Oklahoma, USA born 1972 at 6 am
Last year (2000) I gave birth to a leap year baby and made all the Oklahoma City papers. The teaser was "one in two million" baby because they calculated the odds of a leap year mom giving birth (naturally - not induced) to a leap year baby was over one in two million. They interviewed my Mom because when I was born in 1972 I was the first leap year baby in Boulder County, CO. and made the papers.

3061. Max Stoner of Oklahoma, USA born 2000 at 2 pm
On February 28th I celebrated my first unofficial birthday with my Mom, Barbara Stoner, who is also a leap year baby. (She is raising me to be a strict Februarian). As you can see in my Mom's bio, we made all the papers when I was born. It was great!

3656. Frankie Szot of Illinois, USA born 2000 at 10:41PM
Frankie and Lexi... Together we will remain forever young.....How special we are.

3. Brett Herbers of Kansas, USA born 1980

148. Kevin Bernard of Ontario, Canada born 1992 at 5:25pm
I was born on my brother Mike's birthday. We were born 8 years apart on Feb. 29.

494. Wm. E. Terrell of Ohio, USA born 1928 at 11:30am
There ought be a law...rotate every 4 years & eliminate the last day from a DIFFERENT month......WHY MUST IT JUST BE FEBRUARY? Leap over to my page

537. Elizabeth G. Moore of South Carolina, USA born 1952 at 8:36am
I was born on my mothers 6th Birthday! My mother, Ruth J. Griffn, was born 2/29/1928 (d. 9/6/96). When this happened it was picked up by the Associated Press and the United Press. Their headlines read like the ones in a tabloid that you see in the check-out line in the grocery stores; "SOUTH CAROLINA WOMAN HAS SECOND CHILD ON HER SIXTH BIRTHDAY".

554. John B. Durrant of British Columbia, Canada born 1956 at 5:00am
I don't know if anyone has a brother/sister story but my younger brother was born on leap year one leap year after me. He has a story about being pulled over by a cop and when the officer punched his drivers licence into the computer he was cited for having an invalid drivers license. The computer system did'nt recognize Leap Year!!! No amount of explaining would get him out of the ticket!! My other brother and my sister were born on September 11th, exactly four years apart! My folks had a good sense of timing!

559. Joleen Ludwig of Nevada, USA born 1980 at 5:53pm
I was born 9 minutes after my twin. Funny thing is that we weren't due for another two weeks! We have the best b-day parties too! :)

751. Mira Chaurushiya of USA born 1980 at 8:42pm
I have a twin sister too! She was born at 8:43pm.

1082. Wayne Brown of South Carolina, USA born 1964

1090. Lanice E. Jiron of New Mexico, USA born 1952
Yes, I have met another Leap Day Baby. I am a twin! (check out the Related Leapies link to the left)

1169. Tiaudra Riley of Georgia, USA born 1976 at 11:00 a.m
My brother is also born on Leap year 8 years before me so we have always been close although he told me when he was 8 and I was born he would have rather had a pinball machine as a birthday present!

1178. Matt Royal of Ontario, Canada born 1980 at 11:00am
My mother is also a Leap Year Baby, born in 1952, on a friday morning. We think we are the only mother/son combo in the world, unless you know of any?

1188. Natalie Veenhouwer of Washington, USA born 1984 at 7:00pm
I have a twin brother who was born one minute after me. We were born in Washington D.C.

1190. Zane Macalpine of There, New Zealand born 1976 at 6 pm
I'm a twin!

1494. Janis Comer of Georgia, USA born 1948 at 5:05 am
I never thought that being born on Feb. 29 was so unsual until February 29, 1972. That year (at the age of 7) I gave birth to my daughter. She and I have shared this unusual birthday and had a lot fo fun with it. We have been front page news and TV news more than once. It's been fun. This year we will celebrate together with our entire family in Atlanta.

1547. Marsha Mills of Massachusetts, USA born 1948 at 6:21 PM
I've a rather unusual leap year story to tell, and that is that not only was I born on leap year day in 1948, but had a younger sister born on 2/29/1960. We were all very happy about this happening and wondered what the statistics were on having two children in the same family being born on leap year day? My younger sister, Lori, died on March 1, 1960 but we made the front page of the newspaper. Our town, that I know of, had at least 3 others born on leap day and two were in my class. THAT's small town America.

1550. Jane Kern of Florida, USA born 1932 at 11:45 P.M.
Although I've met less than a handful of Leap Day babies, my twin brother, Joel Russell and I were born in Birmingham, Alabama on Leap Day. Another set of twins (girls) were born the same day -- Leap Day, 1932. There were writeups in the Birmingham News on the birth of two sets of twins, and again on our first Leap Year birthday. Although we exchanged cards with the other set of twins, we never met until we were freshmen at Auburn. The twin girls and I were on the same floor in the same dormitory. Seacrest School, the independent school I initiated and developed in Naples, Florida, proclaimed February 29 as Jane Kern day, with great celebrations every Leap Year.

1568. Steven R. Baeth of Montana, USA born 1956 at 3:25 AM
I was born in 1956, four years later the next child in our family was born. That was my baby sister Janet. She was born on February 29th, 1960. I think she was also born about 3:00 AM. Does anyone know of any other families with more than one leapday baby?

1636. Shawn Ball of Virginia, USA born 1992 at 6:02 pm
I have a younger brother born on 2/29/2000. Two leap day babies in one family.

1853. Randall Young of California, USA born 1964 at 2:45 am
Greetings to all you Leapers out there! My first few leaps were rather painful. I have an older brother, four years older than me born on 28 FEB! He would bring me to tears every year when his "day" came along because I didn't have one. Took me a while to realize what he was missing out on. While he has his "one day"... I have the 28th and the 1st of March to celebrate. But even then, I still have to share that day with an Aunt. Oh well!

2119. Gerrit Zeevat of The Netherlands born 1972
Hello, my name is Gerrit and I am one of a leapday twin. My brother Henk is my twinbrother. We sure are look-a-likes. Many times we met people who mix us. It often happens that people begin to talk to me while I really don't know them. If I tell them that my name is Gerrit and not Henk, than they are really surprised. That is really funny.

2131. Tammy of Arizona, USA born 1964 at 6:04 PM
Not only was I born on such a unique day, but I was also born a twin!! Twice as unique!

2238. Chris Burns of Pennsylvania, USA born 1968 at 0658
When my mom was pregnant the doctors told her that she was only going to have one child and the due date would be around MARCh 17th - however littLE did they know that my twin sister was directly behind me that the doctors could not tell that my mother was having twins until 1 week before she delivered - I am also left handed my sister is right handed - is thiS rare????

2258. Suzette M. Dray of Alaska, USA born 1952 at 6:02am
My sister, who is 8 years younger, is also a Leap Year Baby. Same mother, but different father, but still born on Feb. 29th, like I was.

2274. Lora of Virginia, USA born 1964 at 1120am
I have a aunt who was born on the same day so that make us relly special two in a 20 year and in one family.

2285. Janet Swire Hillel of New York, USA born 1944 at ?
I share my leap year birthday with my twin sister. On Feb. 29th, my daughter dedicated her graduate school presentation to me and her aunt, she said, who are 14 today.

2290. Richard of Ontario, Canada born 1960 at 9:00 a.m.
No message. How about this for your information? I was born a leap year baby (1960). My son is also a leap year baby (2000). Both he and myself were born in the same hospital and same ward 40 years apart.

2355. Rebecca Rang of Texas, USA born 1968 at 11:58? am
Yes, I do know another Leaper. She is my mother. She had me on her leap day birthday and as far as we know, we are the only ones who have this. Don't ask me how, she just said she was blowing out candles and then it was time.

2370. Pat Loerke White of New York, USA born 1956 at 6:30AM
I had a twin sister who unfortunately died at birth. Any other twins out there? I've met one other leap day baby, born the same year. We celebrated our 18th "birthday" together in 1974, but have lost touch. Where are you Beth?

2622. Robert E. Corwin of New York, USA born 1972 at 10:30pm
Pretty neat being a leap day kid. I'm also an identical twin to boot.

2652. Cody Wise of Alaska, USA born 1976 at 11pm

I was born in New York on Jan.30,1964 and I was an identical twin. Her name was Barbara and, half of me was killed on Oct.10,1995 because; of a woman driving while on drugs and alcohol.

3149. Ayana Jack of Trinidad And Tobago born 1972 at 1:05 p.m.
Hello! Pleased to meet all of you reading this. My twin brother and I (we're fraternal twins) have never been fortunate to meet anyone in Trinidad and Tobago who share our unique birthday. So when a friend in the U.S. told me about this site, I just had to check it out! My story is more of an anecdote. When folks find out my birth date, they invariably ask, "So when do you celebrate if it's not a leapyear?" And our answer? March 1!! :) We prefer that day since technically, we were born after Feb. 28. bye for now! AJ

3214. Jenna Taylor of Alberta, Canada born 1992 at 13:45

3219. Amber V. of Ohio, USA born 1976
My brother and I were born at Good Samaritan Hospital in Dayton, OH. We have been informed that we are the first set of twins born this date in Ohio, and possibly one of the only two sets born in Ohio 02-29-76. Can anyone please help confirm? Thanks.

3297. Madison Alexa Harland of Florida, USA born 2000 at 6:03 AM
My mommy and daddy told me I was not to be born until March 10, 2000, but I had plans of my own. I thought leap day would be the perfect day to be born since it is a very special and unusual day. Why not be born on that day if you are special and unusual too.

3439. Amy of Florida, USA born 1964 at AM
My daughter was also born on Leap Day in 1996.

3499. Amanda of Florida, USA born 1996 at 6:10 AM
Amanda is the best birthday present I have ever recieved. I was born on leap day 1964. She was due on March 7th but came a week early. When I get pregnant it never occured to me that we might share the same bday. Amy

3505. Jackie Anderson of South Dakota, USA born 1964 at 1:01 pm
I have a twin sister who obviously was born on Leap Day too in 1964 at 1:00 pm. How many twin leap babies do you know of?

3517. Courtney of Massachusetts, USA born 1992 at 4:05
I have a fraternal twin sister Erin, we were both born on 2/29/92. We have been in our local newspaper 3 times, the day we were born, our 1st leap birthday and our second leap birthday. We were 2 on 2/29/2000, in second grade and we are twins!!!

3556. Mortensen, Brian G. of New York, USA born 1932 at ????
I am now 70 yrs. old, born in Omaha, Neb. and I have a twin sister. My birth weight was l lb. 10 oz. and Carole, my sister weighed in at 2 lbs. 8 oz. I will not tell you how much I weigh now. I e-mailed on another page ----same material. Brian G. Mortensen and TWIN sister Carole Mortensen were born in Omaha, Neb.

3601. Rosie Lorraine Hubbard of Wellington, New Zealand born 1968 at 6:00 am
I am a leap year twin and the youngest of twin girls. My twin sister is 10 minutes older than me and I love her to pieces. The day we were born we made headlines in the Hawkes Bay paper. In the year 2000 we made a comeback on the front of the Dominion newspaper. (Wellington newspaper.) We are now 34 years of age and I'd like to say one thing and that is "You don't hear of many 8 year olds who have been there and done that!" Ha!Ha! See you all and have a great birthday in 2004.

3630. Cindy Macrafic (Enderson) of Rochester, Minnesota, USA born 1956
On 2/29/80, I got the best birthday gift ever! My daughter, Michelle, came into the world weighing just 2lb14oz. Despite the fact that she was a twin--her identical twin, Melissa, died two days later of cerebral hemorrhage--and six weeks early, she is now a healthy young woman that has made her family VERY proud. We have such fun celebrating our birthdays EVERY year together! The best part is the off-years when we celebrate both 2/28 AND 3/1 :) Hugs to Jane Trieschman; I'm that long-lost grade school buddy! Hope I can find you out there...

3676. Stan of USA born 1952
Not only am I a leap year baby, but I am also a twin. How many more are out there?

233. Mark Windover of Massachusetts, USA born 1948 at 12:12am
Greetings from the beautiful Berkshires of Western Massachusetts -- specifically, Williamstown, the Village Beautiful. I know five other leapers, two of whom were born the same day I was, in the same town; and one of those two was in virtually all my classes in school for many years. One other was just born in 1996, and is the granddaughter of a first cousin. I always celebrate on February 28. When a child, my mother insisted that we celebrate on March 1; so for me, doing the 28th was an assertion of adulthood. I was born on a Sunday, 1948, during a heavy snowstorm in North I have twin cousins who were born 4 years later on leap day! Statistically, only one in every 1461 people have this wonderful birthday; and at times closer to most century years, those odds would be slightly longer since most century years do not have a Leap Day.

195. Alan Mileski of Illinois, USA born 1948 at 2:00pm
I have twin cousins who were born 4 years later on leap day!

2415. Alan Ertle of New York, USA born 1980 at 1:21pm
Both my Great Grandfater and Great Great Grandfather was born on leap year. Unplanned of course. Ive only met a couple other people born on leapyear. There is one person stationed on the same ship as me in the Navy.

3091. Billy Mack Underwood of Fannin, Texas, USA born 1956 at 8:20
my father-inlaw is also a leap year baby and my son-inlaw to be is also a leap year baby whats the odds of that happening

3438. Bobbie Dickson of Kansas, USA born 1968 at 8:58 am
I have three Leap-Babies in my family. My Great-Uncle and Great-Aunt were both born in 1928. We have always celebrated our day together. My Aunt and Uncle are getting up in years, I am really starting to how few of us there are. I am delighted to find a page that allows me to "Celebrate" with others.

39. Raenell Dawn of Salem, Oregon, USA born 1960 at 2:33pm
I love it that we're not in competition with anything like other "holiday" babies. Founder, Leap Year Babies Limited (1984) Leap over to my home page with Bio & Photo

260. Christopher (Chris) Wilcox of Long Beach, California, USA born 1980 at 3:00am
I was the first member of Leap Year Babies Limited in 1984, and I am a second cousin of Raenells.

273. Lenore Alice Platt of Michigan, USA born 1932 at 2:15pm
Sure have met another leap year baby! It is my granddaughter Nicole Marek, born February 29, 1996. Can you imagine the odds of this happening? We were surprised and delighted when she arrived.

282. Nicole Marek of Michigan, USA born 1996 at 7:00am
I just had my second birthday party at Chuckee Cheese! Actually I had to share it with my cousins whose birthdays are 3/6 and 3/11. Bummer.

461. Linda Myers of Wisconsin, USA born 1948 at 7:13am
Born 5 days early! One of nine Leap Day babies born in Champaign-Urbana, IL. Joined Headlight-Sun "Order of the 29ers World Chapter No. 1 in 1968. Met my then future husband in October 1967. Wanted to ask him to marry me on 2-29-68, BUT waited for him to ask me on 11-9-69! We will be married 30 years on 5-23-2000. Promote LEAP DAY in all that you do. This is a great club promoting our birthdays.

1225. Zachery Lavesque of Maine, USA born 1996
I am a cousin to Linda Myers member #461. I am as excited about celebrating my 1st LEAP YEAR DAY birthday as I am celebrating my 4th birthday. Send B-day greetings to my Grandma: GE396@aol.com

763. Sharon Carlson of California, USA born 1944
I was born in Rockford, Illinois. The year 2000 I will be a 14 year old, 56 year old. Growing up being a Leap Year Baby was a different experience, special attention, celebrating on the 28th, though as all of you, not born yet & March 1st a day old. Had a couple newspaper articles when I was still in Illinois & last Leap Year (1996) in our local little Fort Bragg, CA Advocate News. There were 3 others in town. I shared my Leap Year birthdays with my brother-in-law, Duane Barker (2/29/32) of Illinois when I married Larry in 1963. We have 2 children, Cindy & Jeff & they always got a kick out of Mom's birthdate as does my Mom Lorrie. But here is the real kick in the pants.....Our daughter was expecting our 1st grandchild February 28, 1996, her husband Curt's was born on the 28th, ( missed being a Leap Year by a few hours). Anyway, as luck would have it our precious Granddaughter, Alyssa was born on my birthday in 1996 & she will be celebrating her very 1st (4th) birthday in the year 2000! What a Joy! I will see to it that she too has joined this wonderful Honor Society. Thank you both for the opportunity to share this skipped over date with so many other leapers. You have done a marvelous job. My little Granddaughter & I will love sharing birthdays and watching your web site over the years. Thanks again!

764. Alyssa Renee Wilson of California, USA born 1996 at 4:42pm
I don't know it yet, but I am one of the chosen few, a Leap Day Baby. Though I will be 4, I will celebrate my '1st' birthday in the year 2000. My Mommy (Cindy), Daddy (Curtis), and brother Jacob will celebrate my '1st' birthday at Disneyland along with many other family members. My Grandma (Sharon Carlson) & I have the same birthday, she's old though, she will have had 14 Leap Year birthdays in 2000. When I get older I will share some of my Leap Year adventures. Alyssa

861. Donna Warriner (nee Anderson) of British Columbia, Canada born 1952 at 3:06pm
So glad to discover this society. Have long thought that we deserved some special attention for our unique date of birth.

2161. Colin David Nutting of British Columbia, Canada born 2000 at 06:27 am
My aunt, Donna Warriner, who is also a Leap Day baby (1952), is submitting my registration for me. The whole family is very excited that I am finally here, and my aunt is positively thrilled to have a new Leap Day baby to share her special day. I am glad to be a member of this special group.

1118. Fred R. Sanders Jr. of Texas, USA born 1940
I have a first cousin Patricia Ruth Sanders #1121, born on the same day!

1121. Patricia Sanders Franklin of Alabama, USA born 1940
Not only have I met another Leap Day baby, he happens to be my first cousin #1118. We were born the same day and year. He was born first and always reminded me that he was the oldest! That used to make me mad. Now, at my age, it makes me happy.

2523. Bob Blume of Colorado, USA born 1936 at ?
My grandson Joey Drager was born 2/29/96.

2524. Joey Drager of Colorado, USA born 1996 at ?

211. Karen Weintraub of Pennsylvania, USA born 1964 at 11:25am
I have a cousin who is a leap year baby. He is 4 years older. I also went to school with a boy born on the same day as me.

224. Sandy Price of Illinois, USA born 1960 at 5:31pm
Probably the happiest leap year birthday I have had was when my sister had my nephew on Feb. 29, 1984. I was pregnant with my first child and I was so emotional !!!

309. Guido Herben of Limburg, The Netherlands born 1968 at 9:05am
When I really became 20 years of age, an aunt of my dad became 20 years of leap year-age (80!).

362. Allison MacDonald of Pennsylvania, USA born 1980 at 9:39am
A cousin of mine was born on leap year 4 or 8 years before me.

470. Kari Baumgartner of Ohio, USA born 1992 at 5:09am
My Great-Grandmother was also a leap year baby!

503. Christina Korshavn of Wisconsin, USA born 1956 at 6:28am
I have a second cousin born on 2/29, but not the same year.

549. Dena-Rae Martin of Washington, USA born 1960 at 4:24pm
I was born on the birthdate of my mother's cousin. I always celebrate on 2/28-3/1 on the unbirthday years, but NEVER on just March 1st; I wasn't born in March. I LOVE being a leap year baby. There are less of us than anyone else and it makes me feel very special. My folks have always made it special. In grade school in Portland my best friend, Kim Smith, was also a leap year baby - giving our lucky school two leap year babies.

556. Rhonda Goddard Hamby of Missouri, USA born 1968 at 12:15pm
I also have AB- blood, I've been run over by a snowmobile (ski patrol) and I'm a redhead. It's nice to be unique. My cousin is also a leap year baby. He is fours year older than me, EXACTLY.

691. Laura of Kansas, USA born 1980 at 3:59 PM
Our birthday runs in my family--My Great-Grandma was born on February 29, 1896!

712. Nicole Sandford of Indiana, USA born 1980 at 12:55pm
I have a related leap day baby, my grandfather, Charles Wallace was born on Feb 29, 1920. His parents didn't want to have to deal with the whole leap day thing so they celebrated on the 28th and didn't tell him his real birthday until later in his life.

783. Lena Carrie Johnson of New Mexico, USA born 1980 at 2:30pm
I have a Great Aunt that was born on Leap Year Day as well, in 1908.

839. Valerie Jean Dickinson of California, USA born 1956 at 2:15am
My great-great grandmother was also born on Leap Year Day!

962. Rhea Golveo Marsot of Minnesota, USA born 1976
Actually, I have a first cousin with the same birthday! When my mom was pregnant with me, she was praying that I wouldn't be born on Feb. 29 because she thought it was bad luck.

1000. Lori Chadwick of North Carolina, USA born 1968
Not only am I a Leap Year baby, but so is my niece, Jessi. She was born on my 16th (4th) birthday (what a present!).

1093. Stacey Woodard of California, USA born 1968
I also have a niece who was born on Leap Year Day of 1996 and her name is Ashley.

1095. Andrea Jones of Minnesota, USA born 1980
I have a cousin who was also born on Leap Year Day in 1980. She is about an hour older than me.

1145. Lynn Willis of Washington, USA born 1976 at ?
I share this special day with my Grandfather. We shared two leapdays together before he passed away. I also share this day with a co-worker.

1183. Alexander Peltekoff of Ontario, Canada born 1992 at 11:20 a.m.
Yes I have met another leap day baby. My grandpa is one.

1191. Steve Lambson of California, USA born 1956 at about 8 am
I share my leap day birthdy with my paternal grandfather, who died before I was born. Also, two of the kids who were born in the same hospital as me in San Fernando, CA, on the same day, went to my elementary school, and were often in my class! Sinse then, I have not met more that 3 others with a February 29th birthday.

1215. Deb Willoughby of Ontario, Canada born 1960 at 8:30am
"My grandfather and I were both born on leap year and therefore every four years was a big deal in the small city where we grew up. We often were in the newspaper or on the news."

1335. Bernard Shepherd of Saskatchewan, Canada born 1960 at 4:44
yesssss!!!!! The world just got took a big leap!!!I also have a 'leap'nephew he's 2

1436. Lee Ann Barron of Maine, USA born 1956

1563. Inez of Arizona, USA born 1940 at 8:00 am
My Greatgma was a leapDay person --but I never got to meet her she died when I was 15 and she had her 22nd birthday

1620. John Haughey of Scotland, UK born 1968 at 4:48pm
My cousin John on my mother's side, is exactly four years older than me.

1930. Bonnie Clark of Maryland, USA born 1932 at 10:00am
My greatniece and I have a special bondness. As I celebrate my 17th today, she is celebrating her 4th. She is the only other person that I know who is a Leap Day baby. It's definitely a spacial day for me. In 1996, my daughter gave me a birthday cake that read 'Happy Sweet 16 Mom'. I felt like a teen again.

1969. Jodie Hood of Illinois, USA born 1976 at 7:02 pm
my great uncle (now deceased) was a leap year baby also. my mother says he was also born on a sunday (like me!) which is even more rare apparently (?).

1971. Curt Miller of New York, USA born 1964 at 4 pm
my cousin jeff m. was also born 2/29/68 we keep in touch . i have always wonder when other leap babies celebrate when we dont have our 29 of feb.

1991. Julie Lawrence of Oregon, USA born 1964 at 2:30 pm
My grandmother Mary Schaaf, was also born on leap day. Her birth date was February 29, 1904.

2015. Janel Madrigal of Colorado, USA born 1956 at 6;45 pm

2207. Beverly Potts of Tennessee, USA born 1952 at 1:00 A.M.
Leap Year babies are rare, but we have two in our family! My first cousin was born on my 16th (4th) birthday!

2255. Carrie Ouzts of Michigan, USA born 1968 at 9:22am
I enjoy being different!!!!! I have a step-neice who is a leap baby also.

2257. Duane Kovarik of Nebraska, USA born 1952 at 2:52 P.M.
My first cousin has a daughter born on leap year in 1980 and another cousin has a daughter born on leap year in 1988 so all in the family.

2302. Sara Elizabeth Fluhr of Indiana, USA born 1984 at 7:35
Leap years run in my family. My uncle was born on leap year. He turned 12 on last Tuesday. I turned 4. It was great. I also know a really good friend also named Sara, who was born on leap day. She is older, only by a few hours.

2345. Jordan Burgess of Massachusetts, USA born 1952
My great-grandmother has the same birthday!

2421. Pat Mason of Oklahoma, USA born 1960 at 8:15 a.m.

2527. Valerie Lee-Cook of Pennsylvania, USA born 1960 at 5:29 a.m.
I had a great uncle born on February 29th also. Two leap year people in one family

2568. Leon Rademaker of Flevoland, The Netherlands born 1980 at 7.25 pm.
My uncle is a leap day baby too

2693. Octaviah Shamiah Strong of Maryland, USA born 2000 at 8:45 pm
My cousin Darryl Levant McCoy was born the same day that I was born at the same hospital. We even made the 12:00, 6:00 and 11:00 pm news that day! We were born at St. Joseph's Hospital in Baltimore, MD - Get this - our mommies had the same doctor -We had her first!

2703. Duncan John Picher of Maine, USA born 2000 at 9:48 p.m.
I share a birthday with my aunt, also a leapday baby. Her birthday present on February 29, 2000 was to help me come into the world!

2830. Matthew Paul Laflamme of New Hampshire, USA born 2000 at 8:43 p.m.
There were two leap babies born at the hospital where I was born. My mommy was due on Leap Day, and no one believed she actually delivered on her due date -- but I did!!! My great great grandmother was also a Leap Day baby, although she celebrated in February, I am going to celebrate in March!

2851. Christian Knappke of Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany born 1960 at 01:50
I also have a LDB cousin. She is 8 years younger.

2914. Haley Nicole Medrano of Michigan, USA born 2000 at 12:58 a.m.
I was the first baby born at my hospital on leap day and there were three more born after me. I made the newspaper which was exciting and what's also neat is that I share this birth-date with my paternal great-grandmother. She passed away six months before I was born.

2975. Arlene of Massachusetts, USA born 1940 at 6:08pm
I had a great uncle, born on Leap Day. Have known several. The Girls Club of Boston once had a party for leap year babies.

2978. Kyra Fletcher of England, UK born 2000 at 12.00pm
I was born 11 days late, on the first leap day of the new millenium, 29th Feb 2000, because I wanted to be special. This is also my great-granddads birthday. I keep in touch via e-mail with another leap day baby and his mum.

2989. Bobbie Dickson of Kansas, USA born 1968 at 8:58 am
I always knew I was special. Now I have found a site of special people. My Great uncle is also a leaper. Born in 1928. Glad to have found you.

3000. Tammy of Prince Edward Island, Canada born 1972 at 12:07
Being born on leap year certainly has its advantages - as well as its disadvantages! For instance, I have found my birthday celebrations usually last 2 days -- February 28 and March 1. Of course, on the 29th, I get lots of attention!

3006. Kayla Mercer of Linden, Tennessee, USA born 1984 at 9:30 a.m.
I have met another Leap Year baby. My cousin was born on Leap Year. My mother was determined to have me one Leap Year because she wanted to make me special. My little brother is 10 and he is always bossing me around because I am really only 4 and he is like, I'm older than you HAHAHAH.

3094. Jacqueline C. Walker of Pickens, Alabama, USA born 1956
I don't know how rare this is, but my cousin's baby was born on leap day 2000. How rare is this in the same family.

3104. Jennifer Regan of Illinois, USA born 1988 at approx. 6:30 pm
Our family doesn't just have one Leap Baby- we actually have two. Although we are not blood related, my uncle's mother is a 29er too! The weirdest thing about my birthday was that my mom's water broke at 2:29 a.m. ( 2-29-88 )

3243. Jarod J Buechter of Ohio, USA born 1980 at 3:15pm
My uncle Gerard Buechter(my mothers brother) was also born on leap day.

3246. Heather Lane of Florida, USA born 1984 at 11:40pm
It is pretty weird because my Aunt is a leap year baby and my grandpa was about 30 minutes away from being a leap year baby.

3302. Sandi Goldsmith of Florida, USA born 1944 at 11:30 pm
My cousin is also a leap year baby born 4 years before me.

3353. Graham W Miller of Nevada, USA born 1932 at 10:30p
My great uncle was born on 2/29. He owned a large floral company/garden. Every four years, he would send me a dozen carnations!

3400. Corey Sabean of Nova Scotia, Canada born 1996 at 7:20 p.m.
I don't have a story to tell, but my mom has taken lots of comments about my birthday such as "how did you manage to do that?" My Uncle John is a leap year baby too...in fact, he had his 16th real birthday in 2000.

3456. Kyle Robinson of British Columbia, Canada born 1976
My cousin (my mother's sister's son) was born also on Feb 29th... 4 years later (1980).

3511. Meghan Hoffman of New York, USA born 1980 at 4:25 P.M.
I actually know a lot of leap babies. My second cousin is one, my grandmother's neighbor and when I went to college my freshmen year, the girl that lived across the hall from me was one. We celebrated our birthdays together throughout college:) I feel very lucky to be a leap day baby.

3579. Hans Fidder of England, United Kingdom born 1960 at 9.15 pm
I was born on Leap Day 1960 in Annen a little village in the northern part of the Netherlands. I studied German and Finnish at the university of Groningen and worked as a language teacher for several years. I currently work as a flight attendant and I live with my Brazilian partner (who is a flight attendant too) in central London. My uncle (Bartho Fidder) happens to be a Leap Day baby as well! He was born in 1936.

3629. Marjorie R. Morrow of Florida, USA born 1940 at 6:00 am
When I celebrated my first Leap Year birthday(when I was 4 years old) they put a picture of me in the newspaper at my birthday party. The most amazing story about my leap year birthday is that my mother's double first cousin also had a leap year baby -- she's 8 years younger than me. The only other leap year baby I ever met was a lady many years older than me at a square dance.

3682. Lisa Shanfeld of New Jersey, USA born 1960 at 9:58 a.m.
We actually have a cousin in the family born on a leap day that is many years older than I am apparently.

3199. Mark of Cleveland, England, UK born 1972 at dont know
I am very proud to say I have 2 people in my family that where born on leap year my son in law and his daughter my granddaughter it is a very happy day for us all
