Birthday gift, count against 2 weekly gifts?

[Evir]

Romancing Abigail at the moment, and at 8 stars, 1 gift down this week, and her birthday is coming up in a few days, I was wondering on the birthday if I can't give a gift if 2 were already given during that week or would that not apply?

Nope, it doesn't count against it.

Sorry but your info is half right. It doesn't count only if you've give 2 present for the week. If you haven't yet, means that birthday gonna count. Based on wiki info

I.E if I give her 2 gifts this week, so 2 x's

it'll let me give her a bouquet or cake or something on her birthday as well?

a third gift

Depends on when you give it. Examples, day 4 is the birthday. Give it 2 present before day 4 comes, and you still able to give a birthday present, for total 3 a week. However, if you give it just once before birthday, your birthday present gonna be the last for the week. That means total 2 like usual

So to update;

I gave 2 gifts before her birthday, was at 8 Hearts. (2 X's in Gift Slots)
Bought a Bouquet, Gave that on her birthday (still 8 hearts) and 2 X's
Thought it was odd there was no mention of the birthday, so Brought a Chocolate Cake
And Bam, let me gift that too!

4 gifts in 1 week, brought me instantly from 8 to 10 hearts in the last gift, and now counter only says 1 X.

Weird xD?

Not weird; I'm not sure the bouquet counts as a gift. Rather, it is a sign in the game that the character is no longer "single" and is going steady with you. Therefore, I don't think it really counted as a gift. That's just my hypothesis, but you get a unique set of dialogue when you give a bachelor/bachelorette the bouquet. So it would make sense this doesn't count as a true "gift."

Look for the paragraph "Best gifts for birthday"
on the Stardew Valley Info site:
https://stardewvalleyinfo.com/guides/stardew-valley-birthday-guide/

It says: "As we mentioned above, you can give each villager up to two gifts per week. If you’ve already given somebody two gifts, but suddenly his or her birthday comes, you are able to give an extra gift. Then the checkbox of this villager will disappear and you won’t be able to give more presents during this week."
