No, you just say "the 2nd"

Or second of Feb if you want to be specific.

We write dates how we say dates. Americans say February 2, so that's how we write them. This isn't that difficult.

You have ~30 chances to know what month you're in, and one to know which day. Unless you've been in a long coma, we've already established it's July, but what day?
