2009 seems to be the year of belated birthdays, I don't know why.

I recall something about it being inauspicious to celebrate your birthday belatedly (along with the 'you shouldn't cut your own cake' superstition), but to be honest, it's kind of nice, because you aren't really expecting it anymore, and it turns your birthday into something of a festival, with celebrations lasting more than one single day. Maybe one day isn't enough to really be dedicated to celebrating you and making you feel loved. Maybe we just don't get enough love all year round.
