Key Takeaways
  • Aquarius and Pisces bring special personality traits. February-born kids may be born under the unique and independent sign of Aquarius or the imaginative and compassionate sign of Pisces.
  • Your baby shares their birth month with famous faces. February birthdays include a famous Friend, a Grammy-winning pop giant, and a soccer great.
  • The month is full of fun and memorable dates. February may be short, but it’s packed with big days, including famous holidays (Valentine’s Day) and hidden gems (National Pizza Day).
  1. February's birthstone is an amethyst, a rich purple-toned gem said to bring inner strength and peace of mind.
  2. Your February baby has not one but two flowers: violets and primroses. Violets are one of the earliest-blooming flowers of spring, and they’re associated with loyalty and faithfulness. Primroses are a hardy flower that bloom in winter in many parts of the U.S. According to legend, a primrose provides protection and may ward off evil spirits.
  3. Babies born in February are born under the astrological sign of Aquarius (January 20 to February 18) or Pisces (February 19 to March 20). Aquarius kids are communicative, open-minded, and unique. They also happen to be “a joy,” shares What to Expect Community member Mom2BeFeb2020. She says of her Aquarius daughter, “She is so smart, sweet, and a little sassy. But I just love her heart and her intelligence and the way her mind works.”

Pisces kids, for their part, are empathetic, flexible, and imaginative. Think: sensitive old souls, as What to Expect Community member Lexus2520 found. “I have a Pisces boy, and he’s so sweet and attached to me, emotional, but also independent and smart.”

  1. Your February baby might share a birthday with one of these well-known people: Harry Styles (February 1), Christiano Rinaldo (February 5), Jennifer Aniston (February 11), The Weeknd (February 16), Joseph Gordon-Levitt (February 17), Rihanna (February 20), Drew Barrymore (February 22), or Dakota Fanning (February 23).
  1. Don’t be surprised if your February child arrives on a big day, such as Groundhog Day (February 2), National Pizza Day (February 9), Valentine's Day (February 14), or Presidents' Day (the third Monday of February).
