Quite the leap: Iowa man born on 29 February has a son on same day

Dillon and his newborn son Archer Glass each had a one in 1,461 chance of being born on a leap day

After being born on a leap day in 1996, Dillon Glass faced thin odds of having his own child be born on the same day.

But that is exactly what happened on Thursday, when his baby boy Archer was born at 7.47am at Iowa Methodist medical center in Des Moines, Iowa, according to what the hospital's parent corporation said to news outlets as well as on social media.
