I look down at the positive pregnancy test in my hand with tears in my eyes. I'm so happy. Emiliano and I have been married for a year now and we've been wanting a baby so badly.
We are finally getting our wish.
Emiliano isn't home right now.
He went out to get medicine for me because he says I am sick.
He normally doesn't go out to get the stuff we need but he said he had to go this time since he didn't want anyone getting the wrong thing.
I don't feel to bad, my stomach just hurts badly but it was worse before.
I sit back on our bed, wondering how I am going to tell Emiliano.
I mean, I know he's going to be happy since he's been wanting this. I'm still nervous though.
I put my hand on my stomach. I know I am going to protect this baby with my whole being.
I am going to love this baby unconditionally.
I hear footsteps coming up the stairs and I know Emiliano is home.
My heart begins to race.
I hold the pregnancy test tightly in my hand, that's under the blanket.
Emiliano opens the door, "Hi, my sweet girl. Are you feeling any better?"
I nod, "Yeah."
He starts to open the box of medicine.
"Wait." My voice stops him, "Don't open that yet. I don't know if I can take that."
His eyebrows furrow, "What do you mean? You've taken this before."
"I know but," I hand him the pregnancy test. "Not when I was pregnant."
His eyes widen. "You're joking."
I shake my head, "I'm not. I took it while you were gone."
He runs over to me and picks me up.
My legs wrap around his torso.
"I love you so much." He says.
I look at him and see tears in his eyes.
My head melts, "Aw, baby."
"I'm so happy." He puts his hand on my belly, "I can't wait to meet our little baby."
I kiss him, "Me too."
"We need to set up a doctors appointment." He says.
I nod and get down from him. I sit on the bed and pull out my phone.
Emiliano sits next to me and pulls me on to his lap, "I love you so much. Thank you."
I look at him, "I love you. Which doctor?"
He looks at my phone. "None. I don't trust them."
"You just told me we need to set up an appointment." I say.
"I know," He pushes hair behind my ear, "But there is a OB that my aunt hired when she was pregnant. We can use her. I trust her."
I nod, "Okay."
Days pass and it's time for our appointment.
The doctor, who's name is Dr. Linda, is checking if everything is going good with the baby.
"Okay lift your shirt up." She says.
I do and she apply's cold gel to my stomach. She then takes the probe and rubs it around mu stomach, soon she find out where the baby is.
She points to it on the screen, "There's your little one."
My eyes immediately fill with tears, "Oh. My baby."
Emiliano holds my hand, "When can we tell the gender?"
"Well she's about five weeks." The OB says, "You can do a blood test at eight weeks to find out. Or find out at twenty weeks."
"I want to do the blood test, when I am eight weeks." I tell her.
She nods, "Okay, we will make that appointment. But the test results don't come in until two weeks after the test."
"Alright." I say, "That's fine."
"Okay so I will make that appointment and get your ultrasound pictures." She informs us.
We nod and she leaves the room.
Emiliano grabs a paper towel and wipes the gel off of my stomach.
He kisses my head, "I can't wait to meet our baby."
I smile, "Me neither!"
The doctor OB comes back with the ultrasound pictures and gives us them.
The entire car ride home, I am staring at the pictures.
I can't believe a baby, an entire human is growing inside of me right now.
I can't really tell what is what on the pictures but still, knowing that that's my baby, I adore it.
