"Babeeeee!" I yelled from the first floor. I sat on the couch with Charlotte who was coloring and eating goldfish while I rubbed my 8 month pregnant belly, Jake walking into the living room a few seconds later.
"Can you help me move the couch?" I asked as he looked at me confused.
"Why do you want to move the couch?" Looking at me quizzically I shrugged my shoulders while he kneeled infront of me with his hands on either side of my abdomen giving it a kiss.
"The doctor said you shouldn't be lifting anything, you've been having too many contractions lately and they don't want you to push it" I laid my head back on the couch as he laughed.
"I'm too restless..can I go on a walk atleast?" Finally giving in with a sigh he nodded.
"Yeah that's fine, come on" helping me to my feet I looked down at Charlotte.
"You wanna come with us baby?" I asked her as she shook her head.
"No, stay with pop pop" she said as I smile, Jake walking outback to grab my dad.
"She wants to stay with you instead of going with us down the street" I mentioned to him as I slipped into my flip flops.
"That's fine...should you be walking though?" He asked sitting on the couch.
"Doc said I can't lift anything, she didn't say anything about walking" I was sick this entire pregnancy unlike when I was pregnant with Charlotte. My weight only visible in my belly and boobs since I could barely keep food down. I was constantly restless and wanting to do something but since the lack of protein in my system even with nausea medicine, I would have contractions constantly from the stress that was being put on my body. It was August and blistering with heat outside as I wore a pair or denim shorts and a plain fitted white short sleeve shirt, my hair down and straight as it reached the top of my waistline.
"Babe slow down, move any quicker and you're gonna put yourself in labor" Jake laughed as I walked ahead of him.
"Maybe you should walk faster, I want this kid out" I breathed out of breath continuing to walk down the street, Jake walking faster to catch up, stopping me and taking my hands in his.
"He will come when he's ready whether that's today tomorrow or in a month. As it is you only have 3 more weeks till your due date. Just relax"
"I can't relax... I feel like I've been cooped up in that house way to long. I can't pick up Charlotte, I can't lift the groceries, I can only walk up and down the stairs so many times a day. Im.going.mad" I threw my head into his chest as he pulled me into a hug.
"I know...but it'll be over soon, you just gotta be patient" sighing I nodded my head.
"Ready to go back now?" He asked
"Yeah...yeah I guess" I agreed as we turned around and began walking home, my stomach starting to tighten with each step.
"Can we stop for a second?" I asked Jake as I held onto one of his hands and rubbed my stomach with the other breathing slowly.
"Contraction?"
"No I'm stopping to pray" I spat at him sarcastically as he laughed.
"I'll take that as a yes" it slowly faded away allowing me to walk again before it came back stronger.
"Ok! This is a big one" I breathed out, my body feeling like it was beginning to sweat, my stomach feeling like a rock. I couldn't keep my breathing steady enough for me to stand comfortably by myself so I leaned into Jake rocking back and forth.
"Just breathe...." He whispered to me as I groaned into his chest.
"Do you want to go to the hospital?" He asked as I nodded my head, the contractions just getting worse as we got closer to home. Unlocking his car, I sat in the passenger with the door open while he ran up to the house, my dad walking out soon after.
"I told you not to go for that walk" he said smiling at me as another contraction hit me and I groaned.
"Ok, go have a baby and keep me updated. Is your dad going to be there?" He asked Jake who nodded.
"He said he'll head over in a couple hours..."
"Can we go now please...I would really prefer not to have a baby in the car" I begged out and closed my door while he got on the drivers side.
It felt like an eternity for us to get to the hospital and by the time we got there I was admitted and changed into a hospital gown.
"You're only at 7 centimeters babe, you need to keep moving" Jake said to me as we walked up and down the halls by my room. I was stopping for a contraction at that moment and leaning against him as I breathed with low moans of discomfort.
"It hurts so bad...." I almost cried out to him as he rubbed my back.
"I know it does but Dr. Navarro wants you to keep walking" the pain hitting harder as I felt a gush of fluid between my legs and we got back to the room, my doctor coming in a moment later.
"How are you feeling Lily?" She asked me as she sat at the end of the bed moving my legs to the side.
"like I need to push" I groaned out to her, my head rolling back as Jake moved my hair.
"Alright, well you're fully dilated on your next contraction let's see if you can push a little" I nodded my head as I felt a contraction build up and I began groaning loudly.
"Dad I'm gonna have you hold onto her left leg, Lily I need you to bare down into your bottom and push for me alright?" I stayed in that position and pushed for hours until the small cries of our son filled the room, the tears from us following immediately.
"Oh my god he's beautiful..." Jake exclaimed sitting on the edge of the bed next to me as I nursed our son.
"He's your twin..." I said looking down on his as I ran my fingers through his dark hair.
Hunter James Hudson was born 3 weeks early on August 14th at 1:30 am weighing 7 pounds 3 ounces and 20 inches long. He looked every little bit like his father from his hair and eyes to his facial features.
I kept my eyes focused on the little baby cuddled up to me as he fell asleep, planting a small kiss on his head while his eyes stayed closed.
"He's perfect..."
