" Can you here that?" Doctor Mitchell asks me, a smile on her face.
And I could. It was my baby heartbeat. Tears run down my face, the heartbeat sounded so healthy, I look over at Von, but he was just on his cellphone, texting whoever it was. I sigh turning away, looking at the ultra sound. My baby was so small.
" Yes, I hear it", I say smiling, wiping my tears.
" The baby is very healthy, on the other hand you Ms. Carson you have very high blood pressure and it looks like you been losing blood lately", she says, looking down at her clipboard.
" oh", I say softly, looking away from her .
" Have you been stressing out recently?" She asks me..
" Yeah, a little bit", I say honestly, playing with my fingers.
" is it the stress of being a new mother?? Relationship problems?" She asks.
" Nah we good", Von says speaking up for the first time causing me and the doctor to look in his direction.
" is everything okay Ms. Carson?" She asks looking at me.
" Yeah... everything is okay", I say smiling, nodding my head.
" You sure?" She asks.
" Didn't she say she sure, " Von says stepping in front of me.
" Really, I'm okay. Everything is great.. with us", I say to her, nodding my head.
" Okay just trying to do my job ", she mutters, writing on her clipboard.
" Is this appointment over? We got places to go", von says impatiently.
" Yeah um, bria next appointment you'll find out the gender and possible due date", she says to me, smiling.
" Okay great, thank you for everything ", I say to her, wiping the gel off of my stomach.
