3. We need more New Year's Eves and Valentine's Days

BOSTON —It's not just the snow that may lead to a bunch of "Blizzard Babies" this year.

Valentine's Day sees more babies conceived than any other day of the year (every year), according to Ovuline, the developer of a fertility and pregnancy app.

"Conception on Valentine’s Day is four times higher than other days," the company said in a statement.

Ovuline's "Ovia Fertility" Apple and Android app uses computer algorithms to improve a woman's odds for conception, the company said.

A woman enters such information as body temperature and cervical fluid, and the Ovia app then predicts a window of time when intercourse is more likely to lead to conception.

New Year’s Eve is second for baby making, followed by Christmas. The day after Christmas is, interestingly, the lowest of every other day of the year.
