Actually I had a lot of things happen while my wife was carying my son over 6 years ago. The first things to happen were light switches flipping as my wife walked past them. Next came the knocking on things next to us. Then the wildest things were phones like my wifes cell phone or our home phone dialing my cell while I was at work. I also went through a period of paranoia about then because of the shake at my front door as I went to put my key in the lock. I thought someone was running out of my house at the instant I came home. I later figured out that was not the case since I didn't have a second "hinged" door in the house to make that kind of negative air pressure impact on my front door. I had 2 sliding doors which shouldn't make the same kind of pressure movement at my hinged door.
I became so paranoid at that time that I was continually looking to "catch" somebody in the act. In the end I figured out there were no physical people doing this and all strange happenings stopped when my son was born. Incidentally he was born on Dec 25 right about noon and I named him Christian. A little over a year later I had a daughter that was born on St Patricks day. My wifes birthday is April Fools day. Her father is Valentines day. The holidays seem to follow her fathers side but the poltergeist happenings are on my side.
My mother tells me the house I was born in was haunted until the time I was born. She never made the connection that it only happened while I was in fetus stage.
I found out about a year ago the meaning or source of some of the common names and I happened to name both of my children with the meanings "follower of Christ" and my name came up as "spear of god" which I got a laugh from.
Another phenomenon I have noticed affecting everyone is short term memory loss. I haven't asked anyone under 20 but everyone has noticed it and they all have an excuse including my wife. Excuses range from "thought it was from smoking pot" to pregnancy, arthritis, age, "because of the water" (bad quality water here)
Oh, and I started searching because my wife is in first trimester at the moment and we have electrical things happening again.
