Tiny Dancer

Chapter 35 - It's a...

Luci's POV.

"Harry I'm excited!!!" I squealed as I jumped up and down on our bed.

"Careful you'll hurt yourself." He chuckled and shook his head at me.

Right, it's been a while so I'll update you:

After me and Harry's conversation in bed, I went to a support group for mothers just like me who can't connect with their babies; some of the ladies here had children who were like ten years old and they'd been coming ever since they were at the same stage in their pregnancy as me.

So I met a lovely girl who was a year older than me called Nancy, she has one year old twins called Lola and Lily who are the cutest babies ever. Me and Nancy talked for a while and we figured out that me not connecting with the baby is all in my head and it's triggered by a fear of not being a good mother because I didn't have a mothering figure in my life when I was growing up because my mum died when I was three.

So, to help, Harry and I went to a bookstore and brought loads of pregnancy books, I even brought the cliche parenting book What To Expect When You're Expecting and I also brought The Good Mothers Guide and The Modern Girls Guide To Motherhood. Which made me feel millions of times better, and now, I feel that amazing connection between mother and baby.

And today, we are finding out the sex of our lovely baby.

"Luc, stop jumping I don't want you to fall off." Harry smiled lovingly at me and I stopped immediately and got off of the bed carefully.

"Look at your bump!" He grinned as he placed both hands on my tummy.

"He or she can hear you." I whispered to him and he smiled with a Really?! Look on his face, I nodded and he knelt down in front of me and started talking to the baby.

"Hey baby, it's your daddy! Are you going to wake up so me and mummy can see you squirming about at the scan? Or will mummy have to do some more jumping around to wake you up? I'm sorry that I'll be on tour after the third day that you're with us, well if you come on time that is, but I'll be back 22 days later! So if you wouldn't mind, please make sure you keep all smiles and cute noises in until then, because I really don't want to miss them! But if you could, would you make sure to do them again so mummy can record them and send them to me so I can watch them with your uncles? Because we all love you so so much my little baby! Right, well I love you so, daddy out!" He grinned and cooed at my belly and kissed it all over before standing up straight and kissing my forehead.

"I decided that I want to breastfeed." I grinned, knowing he wanted me to and he was upset when I said I wanted to bottle feed.

"Really?! Are are you sure?" He answered with a secret looking grin on his face.

"Yeah breast is best! And I felt sort of bad when I thought about thrusting a cold, plastic teat into his or her little mouth." I smiled as I stroked my belly.

"Okay gorgeous. Well because we're either going to go and buy something pink or something blue, we'll get some maternity bras and stuff for you so you're more comfy?" He suggested and ruffled his hair into the typical Styles bounce.

"Sounds good." I nodded and pulled my hair back into a messy ponytail.

"Right well our appointment is in an hour so should we go and get a McDonald's on the way?" He asked and slid his iPhone into his pocket and grabbed his keys.

"Yeah I'm craving a Big Mac with extra salad." I moaned slightly and pulled on my coat and scarf.

"Put your coat and your snood on!'' I scolded a scantily clad Harry who was only sporting a t shirt and jeans.

"Okay mum!" He chuckled as he dressed himself in his winter attire.

"That's better! You'll be nice and toasty warmy now." I giggled and pecked his lovely lips.

"Your lips are a little chapped." I mumbled as I rummaged in my bag for a Vaseline pot.

"Yeah it's the weather they make them bad." He agreed and smeared some of the jelly over his lips.

"That's better." I smiled and I took the pot from him and popped it back into my bag.

"Ready to go princess?" He smiled.

AT THE SCAN.

"Well, it's a.."
