summary: carl and y/n find out they're pregnant 🤭
warnings: pregnancy lol

    you and carl had been taking a walk around alexandria so you could get some fresh air. the last few days you haven't exactly felt 100%. you had been dizzy and absolutely exhausted. you were feeling just a bit under the weather you thought. carl had held your hand as you walked down the street. the summer was quickly turning into the fall and the air became a bit cooler and crisper.

   "how are you feeling?" carl asked you, looking down at you.

    "ehh, not the greatest. im actually feeling a bit faint right now." and at that, you fainted. it was only for a moment, and carl was able to catch you before you were even close to the ground.

    "let's go to the infirmary. you need to get checked out. i can't have you passing out on me again." carl said this with worry. carol saw you fall into carls arms and came to help.

    "what's wrong with her?" carol asked with worry also in her tone. you came back to consciousness very quickly, it almost felt like you fell asleep and woke back up immediately once you felt your body jerk down and carl catch you.

    "we don't know, she hasn't been feeling well the last few days." carl said this to carol as they helped you to the infirmary.

   "im probably fine, i look fine." you insisted.

   "you look fine, but people who are fine don't pass out for no reason." carol looked at you with a small smile. she was concerned but also wanted to keep you from worrying.

   "that's what i've been trying to tell her." carl said this back. you all made it up the steps of the infirmary. you were weak and wobbly but not too bad.

   "hey, denise." carl said this politely as you all walked in.

   "hey, what's up, are you okay?" denise asked you as carol and carl helped you to sit on the examination table.

   "yeah, i think im fine." you said this with a smile and pushing your hair out of your face.

    "she's been feeling dizzy and tired, she barely eats because it makes her nauseous. her head will hurt on and off. there's something up and we don't know what, and she hasn't wanted to ask for help." carl explained for you. denise nodded.

    "you should always come for help if you're not feeling well." denise sweetly said this, putting a hand over yours. you smiled and nodded.

   "well, let's check these vitals." she continued. she put the ear pieces of her stethoscope in and listened to your heart and such. she checked your blood pressure next. carol then got an idea. she thought to herself what lori was going through when she was pregnant with judith, and definitely deficient and not eating enough. this is when carol decided to follow denise to the counter where she set her blood pressure gauge.

    "what does it sound like to you?" carol very quietly asked. denise looked back at carol.

    "i think you know." she answered quietly. carol pursed her lips, trying to stifle a smile. denise then turned around.

    "okay, im gonna give you some things that are gonna help, and you can take them home. you need to start drinking much more water and even double your food intake. you're showing some typical signs of dehydration and malnutrition. come back tomorrow to check back in." denise got a few things together as she said this. you didn't see exactly what, but you were happy you would get some things to feel better hopefully.

   "thank you, denise, really. i appreciate it." you smiled weakly at her.

   you and carl had walked home with the help of carol. carl helped you shower up and get pajamas on. he stayed by your side the whole time just in case. he helped you down into bed. he began to rummage through the bag denise gave you. he pulled out some hydration multiplier packets for your water, acetaminophen for your head, and a few other things.
