Kinda lame.. But my family is pretty superstitious. They say if you break a mirror you get 7 years of bad luck. When I was 8 I broke my mirror.. I had a hard time in middle school/ high school.. Then 7 years later I met my now husband! We've been together almost 9 years, married 4 years. With baby #2 due in a few days??

Mine not as good as some but it makes me laugh. When I left my ex-husband who blocked me from contact on everything and try to make it look like I couldn't move on. Fast forward a few years I have DD with different guy. A mutual friend tells me my ex-husband is now dating a female with a daughter the same age and same first and middle name as my daughter. I hope it secretly reminds him of me everyday.

My son's due date was Feb 23 but dh's aunt Lisa kept saying my son will be born on her birthday on Feb 27th. Lisa's own son and his wife were also expecting a baby at the same time as me with a due date of Feb 21 but Lisa kept saying their baby will also be born on her bday and we were all like, ok ya right you wish! In the end she got her wish and we both gave birth Feb 27th.

Beginning of December 2015, my husband and I decided we were done having kids...2 were perfect. Seriously, 2 weeks later I find out my iud failed and i was in fact pregnant . I ended up miscarring :(

Now we have our rainbow .. couldn't imagine life without her.

Also,

My husband's birthday is 9/9/80. Mine is 10/10/80 and our first Born 's due date was 11/11/2008 ;) she was born 11/4 .

Ok so I’ve got loads and most of them start as dreams. The most recent one though happened just this week.

So my OH is sneaker obsessed and over the past year I’ve always tried to get him a pair of Adidas Yeezy’s, online raffles, Adidas website... to never ever get even close to getting him a pair. I tried to get him the grey and orange ones that dropped in November and noticed more were getting dropped on December 16th and were a blue tint. Showed my OH as I really liked them, but for the first time ever he says “they’re too girlie” fast forward to last Sunday and I had a dream that I managed to get a pair of these Yeezys and I was walking around in them. Told my OH about it like I do all my dreams and he says I’m mad. Then decided I’m going to try all the raffles for a pair in my size as I’ve never had any luck before and I saw my dream as a sign... told my OH and again he says “you’ve got no chance, you’ve tried over a year to get me a pair with no luck. It was just a dream”. Wake up Saturday morning for the drop... size sold out in 1 second at 8am. Then I noticed I had an email... ‘congratulations you have been picked to purchase Adidas Yeezy blue tint’ I nearly fell over. The first time I’ve ever entered to get myself a pair and I manage to get some. The best thing about it all is the site I won the raffle off said they had over 65,000 raffle entries. Luck or coincidence... either way my OH was freaked out/annoyed is got myself a pair before him!

One night we were texting back and forth. I asked DH what name he wanted to name DS.

I was reading a book while texting him and it had the name Jaxon. I really liked it so I sent "what do you think about Jaxon?" and at the same time I received his text message that said "how about Jaxon?" It was the strangest thing and honestly kinda creeped me out. Lol. Same spelling at the same time. What are the chances?

We also decided on our dogs name to be Poppy.

We later found out her birthday was armistice day, (on that that year) commonly known as Poppy Day in UK as everyone wears a Poppy in memory of those lost & who served during war.

My DD's name was the 2nd choice name my parents had for me (I didn't know & it was actually DH's name suggestion)

My DS's name is my DH's middle name. DH's dad wasn't allowed to name DH it so it was put as a middle name, they only had 1 child (he wanted more MIL didn't) his dad died & we named our DS that name in memory of DH's Dad, who never quite got his own way. Ever.

4 of the guys I've dated seriously have lost their fathers after I've dated them. Sucky part is they all dumped me.

My friend cruelly nicknamed me the angel of death after the second one. Then the 3rd happened. I said what a coincidence.

After the last one (my daughter's grandpa) I felt guilty and depression for a bit.I hope my husband and I never split because I love my father in law.

I've only dated 3 guys and I started dating each one of them on January 28th.

The first was 1-28-05, the second was 1-28-07, and then DH 1-28-10

My eldest sister and I were both pregnant, our sons were born 3 weeks and 3 days apart. Now the weird bit, both born by emergency c-section at 3:11pm.

I always said that I would marry a man from overseas with an big family, tall, olive skin and speak French. And he would take me to travel the world lol

I married my husband he’s North African so speaks Arabic and French and is tall and tanned skin and is one of 10 kids lol ?

When we married I came to his country and currently on our 3rd visit here and have been to turkey and Saudi Arabia (for the Muslim pilgrimage) and slowly ticking off our bucket list of places to travel ?

I also said before kids I would either have 3 girls or 3 boys all together

I’ve had 3 girls within 4 years ??

Every school teacher my dd has had she's grade 3 next year so for reception, 1 & 2 every teacher has been on TV in the year they were her teacher. Just weird lol

Mandamay...MY bday is June 14! Are we related?

My mother in laws sister was born 10 years after my mil, my mil had her first kids (twins) 10 years after her sisters birth. 10 years after the twins were born, my mil's sister had a baby, 10 years after he was born, one of the twins had a baby. (My son).

My moms birthday is 11/23 and mine is 11/24 and my sisters birthdays are 03/03 and 03/04. I always thought it was kind of cool to have multiple back to backs. Plus my brother and my dog have the same birthday ?

my grandmom was born 2/22

My brother was born 10/22

My sister in law was born 08/22

My son was born 1/22

they all passed away before there time.

my grandma to cancer, brother accidental drowning, my sister a car accident, my son sids

^same! My birthday is 10/23 and I constantly see that number.

A few years ago I dram about a girl that had dropped out of middle school. I hadn’t seen her in about 20 years. Well the next day I went grocery shopping n saw her at the store.

This has happened to me several times with different people but never with someone I hadn’t seen in such a long time. Or I dream about something n someone talks about that topic the next day.

I also know of 3 different cases in my hometown where people have died in car accidents in their teen years n other people have survived. Well the survivors have also started dying in different kinds of accidents throughout the years. N they’re really young people like in their 20s. “FINAL DESTINATION” ???

My birthday is 9/11.. Everything I look at the clock it's always 9:11..

My sister and I were both in accidents the same day only hours apart. About a year and a half later, both of our parked cars were hit on the same day. I call her a jinx, she calls me a one upper. ?

Tupelo how did you even crank it?

My SO was born on Valentine's Day (2/14), our twins were born on Valentine's Day (2/14) and our first daughter was born on (4/10/2014). All dates with the numbers 2,1 and 4 in them. My SO's mom is no longer with us however she always said those were her lucky numbers even before my SO was born. Call me crazy but every time I walk into our kitchen and happen to look at the clock while I'm in there, it's always some time with a 2,1 and 4 in it. This only happens in the kitchen.

My mom was due with me in July. My grandpa kept telling her I would be born on his birthday (August 3rd.) She kept telling him there was no way she was going to go a week and a half past her due date. Sure enough, her water broke and I was born on his birthday, August 3rd.

My mom saw a medium in Cassadaga with a friend of hers when I was still in high school. Years before I even had my first daughter. I don't believe she was a real medium because the medium told my mom's friend she was going to miscarry the baby she was pregnant with at the time. She didn't miscarry. However this medium told my mom I would graduate high school, go to college and some ways down the road, have twins. I graduated high school, went to college, had my first daughter who I had no feelings of being pregnant with twins when I found out I was pregnant with her. However when I found out I was pregnant after having dd1, I felt it was twins. Sure enough, it was.

My grandmas husbands birthday is June 14th.

My moms husbands birthday is June 14th.

My brothers wife’s birthday is June 14th.

My husbands birthday is June 14th.

I have a 15 year old brother and we jokingly tell him if his future wife’s birthday isn’t on June 14th, she isn’t the one.

I remembered another one. The last 4 digits of my phone number are my youngest dds' birthday.

Me and dh had the same kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade teacher.

I had the same L&D nurse deliver both of my children. When I went in with my 2nd and I saw Olga walk into the room I had major deja vu - and also was like thank god! Olga is amazing!

My husband's mom's name is Kim, my mom's name is also Kim. My husband's dad's name is David, my uncle (who is like a dad to me) is named David. My husband has a step grandpa named Dennis, I also have a step grandpa named Dennis, my Dennis' birthday is July 11th and my husband's Dennis' birthday is July 10th. My great grandparents used to own a home, they sold it and moved an hour or so away, they sold it to my husband's grandparents.

My parents were both born on the 25th of their birth months. My sister and I were both born the 15th of our birth months and my brother was born the 5th. There are 5 of us and my mother has 5 fives in her social.

No history of twins in my family or our sperm donor's (known donor, we specifically asked.) Had early dreams of babies but flip flopped over gender and wrote it off as wishful thinking. Found out at 11 weeks we were having twins and at 19 weeks they were boy/girl.

??

When I was 3 years old my parents asked me what I would be when I grew up. I said farmers wife.

I married a farmer almost 9 years ago

Not a crazy coincidence like some of these stories posted, but I met DH when we were both working in the next town over. During our very short convo we actually realized our parents lived two doors down from each other but we never noticed because our houses face opposite directions.

Also my son was born on my ex fiances birthday, I've never told my husband ?

Hi m

My ds1 waa born 11.11.11 at 11.00 does that count? .

My grandma passed away a feb.8.

Every feb. 8 some scary things happen??.

My sons dad has the same birthday as me, he’s just two years older. We broke up. My boyfriend now has the same birthday as me, he’s just two years older. (So they were born the EXACT same day) All of our birthdays are on the Taurus/Gemini cusp.

Basically, I have shared a birthday since I was a teenager.

@dino no she was saying if she was a boy at birth that’s what her parents would have named her lol

Wait op, both you & your Dh have the same name? That’s literally awesome!

Not my story but my sister in law

She always said she did not want any kids but last year before her mother passed away i remember her saying in front of me and her mom that she will never have kids and her mom told her oh yes you will and i will even send you two ..! Two months after saying that her mom passed away ...!! 8 months after her mom’s passing she found out she was pregnant with Twins , she started to cry and said she knows its her mom who sent them ...!!

I had a dream I was pregnant with a little girl. I woke up my now ex husband. He told me I was crazy. I took 3 pregnancy test all negative. 5 weeks later took another sure enough pregnant and had a girl. The day I had my dream was the day I conceived her.

Flash forward dd is 6 months old. Had a dream I was pregnant with a boy at my dd 5th birthday party by a man who looked like my now husband. I was quite freaked since my ex husband didn't look like this man. Divorced 4 months later.

Got pregnant with my son and realize the man in my dream was indeed my husband and that maybe my body knew I wasn't going to stay with my ex husband.

Ever since I was little I dreamed I would have 2 daughters and had specific names picked out for them. (I can't say the names in case they are on here.) I grew up and met my now DH. He has two sisters. Both with those names.

I was in a relationship with this guy for 3 years and before jr year in highschool he ended up moving 3 hrs away to a tiny town up in the mountains so we ended up splitting up well about a week later I met my now husband who had just moved to my school and town from the exact same town my ex had moved to. We always say it's fate, been together almost 10 years now, two kids and married for 2 years!

?

My parents were 26 when I was born. I was born on the 26th. My grandpa died on the 26th. 26 has always been a number that has followed me, even on my drivers license.

My social has the same numbers repeated.

My bff when I was 17 was Big Mike. My bff in college was Mike Angel. My SOs name is Miguel Angel and he goes by Big Mike. My grandpas name was Miguel Angel, which is Michael in Spanish lol.

I hated my 2nd grade teacher. She was a racist b. I am now a 2nd grade teacher at the same school I attended and I still find books and things that belong to her in my classroom. I know bc it says her name in them lol. I try to be completely opposite of her!

One time I had a dream I was running late and that I hit a parked car. It literally happened to me that same damn morning!

I use to have a reoccurring dream of walking into a house, sitting on a coffee table and looking up at a picture of some random family. My sis moved away and I travelled to spend the summer with her & her family. I walked in, for some reason sat on the coffee table, and looked up to see that same picture in my dream! It was the same family picture with a clock on it. It was an old pic of my brother in law and his family when he was like 6 years old lol. I tripped out on that and was freaked out being there, but in the end I feel as if all of these coincidences are small reminders that I am where I need to be, that fate is real.

Dh and i had a quick romance founf eachother in late August i moved in September, engaged in November. We decided on a small quick wedding in march my mother throws a fit and convinced dh to move it to September he choses September 6th.

I find out Christmas eve Im pregnant with our first dh and i move wedding up to February. I delivered our son on September 6th ?

I have a couple of these.

One day, 10 years ago, I was talking with my best friend over the phone. All of a sudden, the phone had a lot of static and I could heat friend’s voice but I heard a really deep voice say my name. My best friend even heard it. I swear it was my grandfather’s voice. He’d passed away 3 years ago and it was around his birthday that it had happen.

Another one, I probably would’ve never met dh if I wasn’t trying to show off to my dad. I decided to take a karate class at my college and dh was in the same one but he was a rank higher than me. Saw me and offered to help and it was love at first punch ❤️

Not really a "life coincidence" but it was really strange.

I once accidentally stole a car. I was running errands for my boss at my first job out of college. It was during a huge snow storm. When I left Staples I went and cleaned my car off from the snow, unlocked it, got in and drove away. I was confused because all my radio stations were different and I noticed an umbrella on the passengers seat that wasn't mine... I figured out that I was driving someone else's car! Same make, year, model and colour. I drove back in a panic and left it exactly where I found it (a few spaces away from my own). I hope the owner just thought someone nice cleaned off their car for them. What are the chances my key had worked? I should Google that lol.

All 3 of my pregnacies were 2 years and a few months apart.

Both of my son's were born the morning after my due date. Went into labor around the same time and were born around the same time also.

1:30am and 2:45am. Born at 630am and 8am

All the dates that hold close to my heart have both a 2 and an 8.

Years ago I lost my favorite photo of my grandma and it was lost for months. Dh and I were helping his parents clean out their garage and were throwing things in the dumpster. I glanced at the dumpster and there was my grandmas photo laying on top.

I put it in the Bible she gave me before she passed away and now it’s missing again and can’t find it. I have no idea where it could be. It’s been gone for about a 2 years now. It was the only one like that. ?

It's not big but all my kids are born on my lucky numbers. Lol 7,15,7th of their respective months.

this could be confusing but i will try my best to make it sound less confusing lol here it goes ..

Me and partner started dating at 3/7/14 . last year i was pregnant and my due date was suppose to be on my birthday February 20 BUT baby came a lot early which was on 2/3/17 he was born . The weird part about was that he was born at 3:17 Pm . (the numbers match his Birthday) Okay heres another weird one my partners Birthday is on 1/23 . (if you switch my sons bday youll get the number 23) the thing is that all this numbers always show up its always the 7,3,2,1 and heres another one i took my I.D out for the first time weeks later when i had my son, so theres a date on my i.d that say 3/7/17 again this number keep showing up . (okay you can call me crazy now ) ? thanks for reading my comment .....

I tested to see if I was pregnant and got a negative this was at might.

That same night I decided to let my anger towards my mom go and I called her.

the next morning I had a strong positive pregnancy test.

Mines not as interesting as some of these, but I think is cool. I had a whole list of names picked out, for if I was having a girl or a boy. At my anatomy ultrasound the lady asked if I wanted to know the gender and when I told her “yes” she smiled and she told me that I better start thinking of girl names. I told her, “oh, she already has a name... her name is Ivy”. Ivy wasn’t even one of the names on my list. I didn’t know any Ivys and I didn’t know it was even a name if I’m honest lol. I just had a feeling like that’s what she was suppose to be called. When I got home I told my mum the name and she immediately told me to call my grandmother. My grandmother was in the hospital dying of cancer so I thought she told me that because something was wrong. But when I called and told her the name, my grandmother started crying, saying how that was her mothers name. And I just knew, I couldn’t change the name after that. That’s also when I knew I had to keep Ivy. Before that I had been thinking about giving her up for adoption. But with my grandmother dying and the name being so significant, it just felt like it was meant to be. Like a sign, if you will. It felt like, even though I hadn’t planned on having a baby, it was meant to happen then. Ivy was her first great grand baby but she never got to meet her. My grandmother died a few months later. I’m so glad that I was able to hear how happy she was that her great grandchild was going to be named Ivy. It’s something that meant a lot to her and it meant a lot to me.

My high school best friend was in the bed next to me when we were born...we didn’t know until the mums met! I’m a day older!

The only one I have isn’t really weird but my son was born exactly 1 day, 1 month, and 1 year after my anniversary date.

6/28/14- 7/29/15

My sister and I get pregnant at the same time apparently. Five years ago we both find out we're pregnant, neither are planned though. Both boys, five weeks apart. This spring it happened again, both 'surprises,' both boys again, mines two weeks old and hers should be here any day now:) she's getting her tubes tied though so if it happens again somehow then we'll know there's some sort of magic at hand?

This isn't about me but my aunt and uncle. They lived in Colorado & had a truck stolen from their driveway, couple years later were on vacation in Mexico and actually found it. My uncle still had the key on his keychain & sure enough it opened the door and started it. After having the police report from Colorado sent to the police there they got to bring it home.

I once dreamt that I would be living in a tropical country with white sandy beaches, palm trees and blue water, owning a small but beautiful beach house on a large lot with beautiful plants, being a tour guide, living simple , kayaking every day

And here I am living in a tropical..oh wait... that hasn't happened it... damn it......?‍♀️

I'll be back in 20 years to let you ladies know if it happened.... ? ? a girl can dream?‍♀️

Mine is not as cool as the ones shared here but it's my story ...

My dad has always fantasized about winning the lottery (who hasn't right?!) and everytime he would buy a ticket he'd be like what type of car would you like me to buy you? And i would always respond the same way... i wanted a dark green BMV with cream leather interior. And everytime he would ask I would tell him the first thing over and over.

Fast forward a few yrs, I met DH at work and we hit it off pretty great so we were planning to go on our first date. He said he would pick me up and that was that. Then he showed up on guess what? A dark green BMW with leather cream interior...! Granted it wasn't a brand new car but I never did specify I wanted a new one. I took it as a crazy sign and he is the best thing that has ever happened to me 13 yrs later...

I still tease my dad about it, that I got my dream car with my dream man without the lottery being involved ???.

Some of these are so weird! I can't think of any right now, but trying to

My husband has a gold ring that was his grandfather's ( his grandfather passed away in 2007). The ring is just a touch too small but he's never had it resized so it rarely gets worn because it's a batch to get off.

My husband and I lived together before we were married and one day I was cleaning the house just a few weeks before our wedding date. I found a watch box and opened it. Inside was granddad's ring. I left the box open and put it on the shelf to display. When my husband for off work, he noticed the ring. He said "OMG, where did you find granddad's ring? I've been looking for it for months. I thought I lost it. " I told him I found it in the watch box.

Fast forward 2 weeks: It's wedding day. Hubby wants to wear granddad's ring for the wedding but Hubby forgets granddad's ring at our house when he goes to his parents house the night before. Hubby's brother's gf is one of my bridesmaids, so he asks her to grab the ring while she's at our house getting ready. She gets the ring, gets it to hubby at his parent's house. Everything is good to go. Hubby and groomsmen head to the church and hubby forgets the ring at his parent's house. Hubby's brother grabs his suit instead of his tux so he had to go back to their parent's house to get the tux and was able to also get the ring to take it to the church. Hubby puts granddad's ring on so it doesn't get left anywhere else.

It's almost time for the ceremony so I grab hubby's wedding band from my bag and am about to hand it to my maid of honor, but the photographer says he wants to take a few more pictures of the girls. I put hubby's wedding band on the table. We take pictures, line up, and the wedding begins. Ceremony is going great and the pastor says "and now it's time for the ring ceremony ". Panic crosses my face. Hubby looks at me and say "you don't have the ring, do you?" I shake my head no. The bridesmaids are whispering back and forth. One's ready kick off her heels and sprint down the aisle to get the ring. Hubby smiles and says "it's ok. Use this." He takes off granddad's ring, hands it to me, and we use it during the ring ceremony.

Definitely the most memorable part of our ceremony! Granddad made sure he was a part of our day.

2 months later we found out we were expecting our first LO. The day we found out was the same day granddad had passed away 7 years before.

?

Here is another odd thing. My dad is now engaged to a lady who's name is Ruth, she has a daughter named Nicole and another daughter born May 8.....

My Grandmas name is Ruth, my name is Nicole and I was born May 8 ?

Following to read later!

When I went SC to go to college, a boy from Maine moved to NH to go to college, and he went to my home church, and got to know my family and friends.

I moved home and met this guy and ended up doing hair for his sister's wedding.

At her wedding I was watching all the family take pictures, and touching up everyone's hair and stuff.

I thought to myself that it was kinda sad because I only have one brother, I'll never get to have big family pictures done at my wedding.

We'll 5 years later I ended up marrying that boy and had that same big family at my wedding.

I left my home to go to college and after graduation started working night shift in a hospital. I hadn't been able to see my family in so long and I was getting tired of working night shift after two years. I decided to give my two weeks notice. I told my manager it was time to spend time with my family. I went back home and spent the weekend with my dad. He hugged me, kissed me, told me I was beautiful, that he loved me, and that he was so proud of me. Kind of unusual as we were rarely that affectionate. That week he had a massive heart attack. I drove back to where he was and spent three days with him in the hospital (he was awake and alert) before he suddenly passed away. After his passing, everyone at his funeral started telling us how my dad had gone up to a lot of them, hugged them and told them he loved them. Everyone thought it was a bit "different" but didn't think anything of it until afterwards. It was almost as if he knew he was going to pass away.

Eta: I should add to the above story: my father passed away on my husband's and my first wedding anniversary. Not sure if good or bad or what, but it's always a bittersweet day.

My mom says that when she was a little girl she used to name her dolls "Sonia." She just really liked the name. When she was pregnant with my sister, she picked the name "Daniel" in case she had a boy. Years later my brother got married to a Sonia and I got married to a Daniel.

My dh is a helicopter pilot & we lived in Vegas while he worked flying tours into the Grand Canyon. Bc he was a pilot, dd & I got to go on a tour flight for free. On it was a couple honeymooning, the wife baby talked dd in Spanish & was very sweet. A year later dh, dd & I are visiting his family in Italy & took a trip to Venice w his sister & bil. We’re on a ferry to go to Murano & I notice a couple staring at us. It was the honeymooners on their anniversary trip!

Another that happened to my dh. He was at orientation for his new job & taking a break in the lobby & talking to his mom. They had a tv playing on loop a video w blurbs about the employees there. Up pops a guy w dh’s Nonna’s last name. It is not a common Italian last name so he tells his mom & she’s like nah, no way & he insists that’s what he read. After they hung up, she contacted her cousin & turns out it’s his son! He popped into dh’s training the next day & they met! They both are very far from their birthplaces yet ended up in the same industry & in the same small town.

That is such an amazing story @Emily!

I’ve told this story in detail before but heres the condensed version!

I had 2MCs, a couple weeks after my 2nd one my Granny passed away. At her funeral I prayed that she would look after the babies I lost and please give us a baby who would stay with us.

When we went to the graveyard for her to be lowered in it started to rain and there was this gorgeous double rainbow. I just felt like it was for me!

About a week later I had a positive pregnancy test, and it turned out to be our twins!!

Bumping, these are incredible!

I suppose my only thing is when we've been stressed for money we have always been blessed to find it. Either someone buying a vehicle from us, a bonus check. .something.

I’ve experienced many, not exciting but coincidences nonetheless.

No one in my family had been in a car accident. Then within five months of each other myself, my sister, and my mom were each hit while driving alone. We were scared for my dad but he was spared.

My bd and I were in a random city about 45 min from home. We stopped at a gas station then went to two different shops and every time we came out we’d notice this red truck was there.

We would always run into one of my bd’s friends at the most random places in their hometown. It was always the one friend all over the city.

I had been with my bd for four years before we had a really bad break up. His younger brother had never been in a real relationship but apparently started dating some girl during our break up. My bd and I reunited 6 months later and I ended up getting pregnant. His brother and his gf had broken up. A couple months later we find out she’s pregnant too. Our girls are a month and 10 days apart.

There are more but these are the only ones I can think of right now.

My social and cell phone number have the same last 4 digits

I went to a concert when I was younger, in the line up for the mini donuts I was talking with this guy infront of me, he had shorts on with mismatching socks. We talked for a while , until we paid and went our separate ways....

About 2 years later I was in an airport for my layover to go to Japan. As I was waiting for the plane, and I couldn't open my orange juice container. The guy across the waiting seats offered to opened it, so I let him, we talked for a bit, then he put his feet up and went to sleep. I noticed mis matched socks...

The entire time I was in Japan I was boggled by the thought that I knew the guy but don't know how, only months later I realized it was the same guy, same name, from the same city, same occupation and same stupid socks . The same freakin guy hundreds of miles away....

I never saw him again though ? I thought that was pretty weird.

Can't think of any right now but following.

My biggest one is when we were ttc dd2. It took us almost a year, and had a talk to stop trying. Then a couple of days later I got my bfp.

During pregnancy, ds was diagnosed with cancer and it just so happens that I was able to take paid maternity leave as soon as his official diagnosis was made. Down to the week. I was 36 weeks at his dx, and got all 14 weeks of maternity leave to be with him, and to take the early days to grieve without working (you get 3 paid bereavement days in CA).

ETA I also forgot to add that the job I had for 5 years laid me off when I was 5 weeks pregnant. This is another blessing, because my current job offers much better insurance and life insurance which we needed for ds. Previous job offered only a $300 monthly “benefit allowance”. HUGE timing blessing.
