  Potioncat:
What does this mean? It means Snape and DD hear the prophecy before 
the boys are conceived. Neither one knows who the parents will be, 
but I would think there would be a great pool of couples to choose 
from. 

   
  Catherine now:
   
  I pretty much agree with everything in your post, except the above quote. How many couples of child-bearing years have defied Voldemort 3 times? It doesn't seem to be an easy thing to do, quite a feat, in fact,  to escape the most powerful evil-wizard of the day, not once, but three times!  And I don't think the Order was very big in the first war against Voldemort. Weren't they outnumbered 10 to 1 by DE's? Also (IIRC) from Moody's picture of the order, the only 2 couple were the Potters and the Longbottoms. 
   
  Please correct me if I'm remembering wrong!
