"Kobe, I want this baby out" he lightly chuckled as he lay beside me, his hand lightly caressing my bulging belly. I'm 35 weeks and I'm so uncomfortable.

"Baby, you only have 5 weeks left until your full term."

"That's 5 weeks too long, Kobe. I swear I have never felt this shit during any of my pregnancies. This is no longer enjoyable" Kobe just continued to laugh at my discomfort. I glared over at him and hit him lightly on the chest. "I'm huge, Kobe. I'm like the size of a house. I want him out" he leant in to press a kiss to my temple but I just lightly pushed him away. "I haven't been able to sleep properly in weeks. Please, help me get him out. Can we have sex?" he loudly laughed at my pleading.

"You are so fucking dramatic, Babe" I huffed and dropped back against the pillows, clenching my jaw as I crossed my arms over my chest. He continued to laugh as he climbed out of bed and pulled on a shirt. "I'm going to check on the girls and see if they're up. You coming?" I just ignored him and continued to huff and puff as I stared off at the wall. "I'll see you downstairs, Baby" he laughed as he left the room.

"You better be getting ready to come, Mister" I lightly poked my tummy causing baby, who is still yet to be named, to kick against my hand. "You're big enough as it is, Baby. I don't need you getting any bigger. You think we should get up? Maybe walking around will help you move along a little faster" it was an effort to get out of bed, like it's an effort to do anything. I grabbed my robe and slipped into it, slowly heading into the en-suite because as soon as I stood, he pressed down onto my bladder. I did my business and then headed downstairs, a smile forming on my face at the sound of the girls giggling. I stood in the doorway to the kitchen, the smile on my face just widening as the girls giggled at Kobe who was dancing around the kitchen as he made breakfast.

"Mommy."

"Good morning, Babies" I pressed a kiss to each of their foreheads and then headed to Kobe who turned to me with a smile. "Morning. I'm sorry for being such a grump" he shook his head with a light laugh and leant to kiss me.

"Don't worry about it, Baby. Go and sit down, I'll bring breakfast over. Tell mommy what we're having girls" I waddled to the table where I took a seat beside Ayla.

"We having pancakes."

"Wow, pancakes. Kobe?" he rolled his eyes and laughed.

"What? It's a treat."

"Bebe makes best pancakes" I glanced back at the girls as Ayla spoke to see that Kyra was nodding her agreement.

"Are they better than mommy's pancakes?"

"Mommy you get them from freezer" my mouth dropped and I gasped as Kobe laughed in the background.

"I do not" they both giggled.

"I like yours, Mommy" my smile widened as I glanced to Kyra.

"Thank you, Baby Girl" she continued to giggle as I pressed a kiss to her cheek. I glanced over at Kobe as he headed over with two plastic plates.

"Here you are, Girls."

"Thanks, Bebe."

"You're very welcome, Ayla."

"Tanks, Daddy" I watched my girls with a wide smile.

"Mommy, why you smile like that?" Ayla questioned as she stuck her fork into a piece of pancake and then shoved it into her mouth.

"Because I'm happy, Baby."

"Because we have pancakes?"

"No, Peanut" I lightly laughed. "I'm happy because I have the most amazing family ever" they both glanced up at me with beaming smiles. I turned to Kobe as he headed over with our breakfast and he took a seat beside me. His hand ran along my thigh as he leant in to press a kiss to my lips.

"How are you doing, Baby?"

"I'm struggling, Mom. I really want him out now" I spoke through the phone as I paced along the bedroom floor, my hand digging into my back that had been aching all day.

"I know, Baby."

"I'm going to see if I can get some rest. I haven't slept much the last couple of weeks. I'm struggling to get comfortable."

"Okay, Baby Girl. Let me know if anything happens. I love you" I lightly smiled.

"I love you too, Mama" we spoke our goodbyes and hung up. I took a seat on the bed and sighed as I lowered my phone down onto the nightstand. I glanced up at the sound of the door and I smiled at the sight of Kyra.

"Hi Mommy."

"Hi Baby. I thought you were downstairs with daddy?" I ran my fingers through her hair as she came to my side.

"You tired, Mommy?"

"I am, Gorgeous."

"I tired too. We cuddle?" she lightly pat the bed.

"Of course we can, Baby. Can you climb up?" she nodded and pulled herself onto the bed. She crawled onto Kobe's side of the bed and then climbed under the covers. I pushed myself to stand and then climbed into bed, smiling as Kyra cuddled into me. I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and text Kobe.

Me: Kyra's upstairs with me!! We're going to try and get some sleep 😴❤️❤️

I lowered my phone to the nightstand and then cuddled myself into Kyra. She placed her hands on my belly and giggled.

"Can you feel him kicking, Baby?"

"Yeah, it weird" I lightly laughed and pressed a kiss to the top of her head.

"It's a little weird for me too, Angel."

"I love you, Mommy."

"I love you too, my Baby" I ran my fingers through her hair as she dropped to sleep against me. Her hand remained pressed on my stomach and I thankfully was able to drop to sleep.
