TW - Infertility


You leg bounced restlessly as you were filled with nervousness and excitement. After 5 years of trying, you were pregnant, and with triplets. You were beyond excited to tell Daniel, he'd be beyond happy.

You'd been trying since the start of his Renault days when life had slowed down a little compared to when he was at Red Bull. It still would've been difficult but it was a step in your lives that the pair of you wanted to take.

The house you'd recently brought, about 30 minutes outside of Milton Keynes, you'd picked with the idea of growing your family in. Even though, you had been struggling to grow your family, you wanted to imagine and hope that it would happen someday. This was the home you wanted to raise them in, with the world's biggest garden, 5 bedrooms, an open plan kitchen-dining room, all of it.

However, although, you lived so close, you hadn't seen Daniel in about 2 months. He had no idea you were pregnant. You didn't want to tell him over a text or a phone call and you weren't even aware of it when he left.

You were about 16 weeks along. You'd never made it this far along before and you had such mixed feelings. You were so scared that something would happen or go wrong.

Daniel would be home in the next 20 minutes or so and as much as you wanted to do some big reveal and make it something really special but you knew that with everything that you'd gone through to get here, it wasn't something that'd fit your journey to being parents. It would be special enough whichever way you did it.

You started to panic even more and in your haze, you got up pacing around looking for something to occupy your mind. Your eyes fell to the shopping catalogue that had come through the letter box a few days ago. You flicked to the page with the baby items as your fingers and eyes traced the images.

Soon enough Daniel came through the door. You put the catalogue down, stood up and stared at him. He just stood there momentarily before rushing over to you and wrapping his arms around you. Underneath the hoodie that swamped you, you were visibly pregnant but with it on, he couldn't tell.

You pulled your surprise out of your pocket and held the series of scans to him. His mouth dropped wide open. He had the widest smile you'd ever seen on his face, which was saying something for Daniel.

"There's something else..." you started. Panic came across his face and you instantly felt bad. You took the scan in your hands to show him.

"There is 1, 2, 3 babies." you told him, pointing out each of them. "And they're all baby boys." you added. His arms enveloped around you once again. Daniel had always told you he just wanted a healthy baby but you knew that, secretly, he would've like a baby boy and now that was coming true. Not just one baby boy but three.

"There's 3 babies." he mumbled. You pulled the hoodie off to show him your bump. His hands made their way to it as he stared in disbelief.

"They're due 15th September but cause there's 3 and then cause we've never made it this far before, they're planning on inducing me 28th July and yeah, we're going to have 3 babies. I'm 16 weeks and I know we've never made it this far and I'm terrified and you probably are" you said, tears coming to your eyes.

Both of you were crying by this point, not quite believing what was going on. You had what felt like a million emotions rushing through you.

"After a storm, comes a rainbow, or 3." Daniel said, laughing through the tears.
