It started at Christmas

Chapter 72

It has been a few weeks and i am now 33 weeks pregnant and i am so over it. Today we have a checkup with my doctor and i am not nearly ready. Nothing fits comfortably anymore, i am moody and i need to pee what feels like every two seconds. The last week i hardly slept and i am so tired. Everything is ready for them to come, most of all me as i am over this pregnancy and just want them out. I put on a dress that still sort of fits and try to put on my shoes but i cant get them on.

I sit there on the bed crying as Chris walks into the bedroom. He sees me crying and sinks down to my level. "Whats wrong baby?" he says. "I cant get my shoes on, i have to pee again, everything hurts and i am soooo tired." I say between sobs. "Let me help you" he says as he puts my shoes on my feet and then he helps me up to go pee. After i am finally ready to go i feel a shooting pain trough my stomach but ignore it. "Lets go we dont want to be late" i say and he nods taking my hand walking me to the car. 

We drive to the doctor and Chris helps me out of the car. He grabs my hand and i waddle behind him inside. "I cant even walk normal" i whine and Chris chuckles. "It is not funny.." i say annoyed. "No baby it is not" Chris says and kisses the top of my head. We wait for about 10 minutes and i feel another sharp pain. I let out a deep sigh, "you okay baby?"  I take a deep breath "Yep" i say trying my best to keep my face in check as the sharp pain runs trough my body. The doctor comes out and Chris stands up holding out his hand. I grab it but as he pulls me up there is another sharp pain and i sit back down again. "Baby?" Chris says and i can hear the panic in his voice. The doctor walks over and crouches down in front of me "Olivia are you okay what is wrong?" he says in a calming voice. "Sharp pains" i said. "And how long have you had them." The doctor asks. "On and off for the last couple of hours." I say trying to breath true the pain.  "Baby why didn't you say?" Chris asks he is trying hard to keep his voice calm.

"I knew we would go here today, so i thought i just would bring it up here." I said tears in my eyes.  "Okay lets get you in the exam room and see what we are dealing with." The doctor says. Chris helps me into the exam room and i lay down on the bed.

The doctor does some tests and excuses himself and walks into his office. When he comes back he looks serious. "Okay Olivia i need you to stay calm.... I have called an ambulance and they are going to take you to the hospital...." Both me and Chris look at him in shock, "what!? Why?!" we ask him freaking out. "Because your babies are getting to big and we need to deliver them today." I look at the doctor and to Chris. "What? no...its to early.." i say in a soft voice  but before  i can even process what is going on there is a knock on the door and 2 paramedics walk in. "Chris..." i say in a panic. "Shhhh its gonna be okay baby" he says and kisses my forehead. I grab his hand. "Dont leave me alone" i say in a panic. "Dont worry Mrs Evans" one of the paramedics says "he will be with you every step of the way."

They put the stretcher next to the exam table, "can you scoot over Mrs Evans?" I look at them annoyed and snap. "Does it look as i can scoot?! is say annoyed and looking at the paramedic angry. He looks for help at Chris and he steps in pushes the stretcher aside and lifts me up from the table and puts me on the stretcher. "Here you go baby" he says kissing my forehead. "I am scared" i say trying to fight my tears. "I know baby but you will be alright. Just think about that we are meeting our babies today..." he says smiling at me. I nod, "I will meet you guys at the hospital" the doctor says and the paramedics walk me outside and put me in the ambulance.

We arrive in the hospital and i get rolled directly to the maternity ward. I get a private room as we had arranged on forehand and about 20 minutes later our doctor walks in with another doctor. "So Mrs Evans are we ready to become a mother today?" she says way to chipper. "No" i say shaking my head "this is going to fast i am not ready i dont even have my bag here." I start crying. All i wanted was for this to be over and them to be born but now...i feel like we are not ready. "Ill call ma to bring it over" Chris says pulling me out of my thoughts.
