Maybe it's a sign?

According to all the weather reports, we will be getting a ton of snow tomorrow. Of course the time that my ER is scheduled is right smack in the middle of when they are predicting the heaviest snowfall.

DH came home last night & told me that he was "thinking" all day about it. He is convinced that he was conceived during the Blizzard of '78. Not only that, his parent's were told a few years before that they were not going to be able to have any more children ( they only had just his brother) due to her recent (at the time) cancer dx. So, he told me that he thinks that our situation is parelleling the one in which he was conceived since we were given a <1% chance on our own & our baby will "hopefully" be conceived tomorrow during the storm.

I know I'm grasping for straws, here, but I need something to think is a "silver lining" as to not get totally stressed b/c of the weather!

    I don't think there's anything wrong with having a little bit of hope or a silver lining.  You guys just be careful traveling and take your time, GL!

    The only thing you have control now is your attitude and being positive is the best you can do.

     I agree.

    I'm not too well versed on AH. Does it just make it more likely the embie will attach itself to the wall of your ute?

    I think it would be such an amazing story for your child if he/she were conceived in a blizzard like your H.  I think it might be a sign for sure :)  GL and be careful.
