She delivered two weeks later! The kid is in his first year of college now. I'm since divorced. She has the house. Everything worked out just fine

I can relate! I live in Virginia. In February, 1996, it snowed EVERY night for a week. I shoveled the driveway and sidewalk EVERY day. My son was born Feb 7, in the middle of another snowstorm. I remember driving to the hospital and not seeing another car. BTW, he's now if his first year at William & Mary College, his mother and I are divorced, and neither one of us got the house.
