Well, if you were born on (for example) May 5th, your birthdays would be on May 5th. If you were born on Feb 29th then it normally rolls over to March 1st.

If you mean born on February 29th in a leap year you would have to choose either the 28th February or the 1st of March to celebrate your birthday.

A person born on February 29 may be called a "leapling". In common years they usually celebrate their birthdays on 28 February or 1 March. Shirley Temple was a "leapling" and used to joke that she could play 10 year-old into her 40's. Also -here's an interesting fact: it was common yore that in the early 1900's in the US, a woman could ask for a man's hand in marriage without fear of reprisal or social stigma, only during a leap year.

I celebrate (when it's not a leap year) on 29th Feb AND 1st March mainly because friends and family randomly send me cards gifts etc around that time.
