cjboffoliParticipantKnow anyone in West Seattle who’s pregnant and has a September due date? Seems like this would be around the time that a wave of storks would be dropping babies from the December 2008 snow and ice storms in the arms of their parents.

WSBKeymasterDidn’t we have a forum thread a couple months later with a few people volunteering they were expecting?

celeste17ParticipantYes we did and it seems to me there were 3 or 4 people due in September.

CMPParticipantTwo of my girlfriends are due to deliver their babies any day now.

cjboffoliParticipantHmm. I’d expect that 3 or 4 people would have September due dates anyway. I guess the “B Grade, Heck-of-a Job” baby boom is non-existent.

flowerpetalMemberSo here is another example of me trying to search the past forums for this topic. There was a discussion about blizzard babies coming due about now. I remember too Celeste that there were three or four people volunteering their good news. But I couldn’t find it by searching via Google.

WSBKeymasterI’m thinking that the Google back end to the widget we use is just not a good one so I’ll be muddling around with it late tonight. Also we have a tech consultant working on a new round of upgrades and if there’s anyway to get “native” site search to go through both the main section and the forum, I’d love to bring that back. The two are separate content-management systems BUT designed to work together …
Meantime, I did find the main page item in which I called attention to the forum post.

JanSParticipantCMP, I think I’m guessing that you’re of the female part of the population…if you’re a guy, I wouldn’t be bragging about 2 of your girlfriends being preggers ;-)

CMPParticipantLOL…yes, I’m female! Most of my girlfriends are in their early 30’s and just now starting to have babies so I’d say it’s unusual for my circle of friends to be expecting two at the same time.

cjboffoliParticipantHaving seen lots of major snowstorm baby booms back East I thought for sure the same would be true here. Maybe the lack of baby making round these parts accounts for the reason people can sometimes seem pretty grumpy on the WSB Forums :-)

JanSParticipantgrumpy? nooooo..we don’t get grumpy here…whatever gave you that idea, Christopher? hehehe
CMP…I had my daughter when I was 33…she’s 28 now….she keeps me young :)

miwsParticipantThey were just probably too dang tired after walking home from Downtown after their bus didn’t show up! ;-)

melissaParticipantI went to yoga tonight at Eight Limbs and the prenatal class before my class was FULL of pregnant women who looked as if they were due yesterday. If that’s any indication, yeah, there are some blizzard babies.
