What Is a Half Birthday?

A half birthday falls exactly six months after your actual birthday, the midpoint between one birthday and the next.

Birthday	Half Birthday
January 10	July 10
April 22	October 22
August 31	February 28/29*
November 5	May 5

End-of-month note: When your birthday falls on the 29th, 30th, or 31st of a month, and six months later that day doesn't exist (e.g. February only has 28 or 29 days), your half birthday is adjusted to the last day of that month. Our half birthday calculator handles this automatically.
