New life - were you born on a’special’ day ?

Eldest son was born on his dads birthday . He was 6 weeks premature.

My elder two children share a birthday two years apart. This is also their great grandmother’s birthday. My mother and mother-in-law also shared a birthday. Mum was 15 years younger.

My sister was born on Maundy Thursday, and one of my friends on Christmas day. My oldest grandson was born on my birthday which was special to me

GD born 1st Jan, first baby born in our area that day.

My oldest was born at Easter. My PIL’s brought him a chocolate rabbit as a present. I ate it on his behalf.

My mum’s mother was born on 29th of February as was her cousin.

My grandson was born on st Patricks day in Ireland on about his fourth birthday he caught chicken pox and couldn’t have his expected party, at great disappointment, as his spots had gone my daughter took him to a st Patricks day parade in town as compensation
When his next birthday came round he said are they putting my parade on again he thought it was done especially for him

Christmas Day and my sibling's also!!! So not only did I not get to celebrate or have a party when I was little I also had to share my birthday. I do get 2 presents and a birthday 'hour' when I am the only one allowed to open presents. My husband also books a nice restaurant after Christmas.

First Gdc was born on April 23rd, St George’s Day.

A brother was born on December 21st, shortest day of the year.,

I’ve just involuntarily started singing the special song I was told too!

“What is the meaning of Empire Day?
Why do the cannons roar”?

Anyone know any more please?

I was born on the anniversary of the day the Magna Carta was signed in 1215, also the Black Prince's birth.
These are the only facts I remember from the set of encyclopaedias I had as a child.

I was born on 24 May, Empire Day, it was apparently then. Now it’s Commonwealth Day and completely ignored. My parents said they put the flags out for my birthday which was true and a lovely, though irrelevant, thought!

We have Four family members born on Christmas day, one on Guy fawkes and one on Valentines day,and another on New Years Day.

Nearly, son 2nd January, daughter 3rd July, I was hoping for the 4th, Independence Day.

Yup- I get birthday and Christmas rolled into one, I know what you mean! Ok now but not so good when you are a young child.

I was born at Easter
I think it's nice in one way but has its downsides.
I rerember as a child having parties and children would bring an Easter egg as a present. Sometimes I suspected it was a spare one they already had lying around.
I wanted real presents.

Yes 1st of April and she loves it.

Both days our daughters were born became ‘special’!
