Chapter ThirtyIt's almost near the end of Bridget's pregnancy. She's thirty-eight weeks. The baby is growing big and healthy. This is Bridget's first pregnancy so she really doesn't know what to expect. She helped Siobhan out when she was pregnant with Sean but it's hardly the same thing.
Everyone spoils bridget, including Greer. So far everything is wonderful, but Bridget can't help feeling like something bad is coming. Andrew feels the same, but he keeps it to his self. He Doesn't want to worry bridget.
The twins are doing wonderfully, and so is Juliet. With the due date coming up Andrew has been coming home early from work everyday. Tim doesn't mind. For him family is what's most important.
Bridget has been feeling crampy but the doctor says it's just Braxton hicks. It feels like contractions, but isnt. Everyone looks at bridget likes she's a ticking time bomb. It makes her feel uneasy.
Her belly is so big that its hard to take care of the twins. So she reluctantly let's the nanny do her job. She misses them terribly. Their cute chubby arms and legs. They love her so much. Their faces light up when they see her. It's so wonderful to be a mother.
Bridget can't wait till this baby is out of her. She feels awkward looking and uncomfortable. She's been having this dull back ache ask day, but she doesn't want to tell anyone because it's probably the Braxton hicks.
Andrew is on his way home from work and Juliet is in her room talking to some boy on the phone.
Bridget pops into the bedroom to freshen up before Andrew arrives. She wants to look her best, even though she feels like she weighs a ton and looks like a whale. The doctor says that her baby weight is perfect. Seeing herself in the mirror tells her differently.
Chapter Thirty-one
Everyone is at the dinner table, including Juliet. The nanny is with the babies.
"Darling, are you feeling OK? You look pale." Asks Andrew
"I'm fine. Just tired. It's not easy carrying all this extra weight around. Besides this is my first pregnancy. Maybe on the next one I'll be a pro." She says waving off his worries.
"You need to tell me everything bridget. I can't help you if you won't share with me. Now I know something is wrong. Please tell me." He begs.
"Mom you've been really quiet today and napping alot. I'm with daddy. How are you?" Juliet says grabbing Bridget's hand giving her a light squeeze.
"I love you both and I don't want to worry you if it's nothing. Today I've had a dull back ache, that's all. It just seems like it's getting a little more intense. It's nothing. Really." She says trying to smile.
Juliet and Andrew look at each other in horror.
"You mean you've been in pain all day sweetheart? "Andrew asks
"Yes, I'm sure it's just the baby dropping into position. It's normal. I think." Bridget answers.
Chapter Thirty-two
On the way to the hospital Bridget is still saying they were making a big deal and that she's sorry if this was all for nothing.
Andrew and Juliet don't care if they are wasting their time, they just want to make sure everything is ok.
With Solomon driving them in the limo Andrew can relax a bit. He can concentrate on Bridget. Juliet is rubbing her back while Andrew massages Bridget's feet. He wants her to be relaxed with no worries. Easy as possible for Bridget.
Soon they arrive at the hospital and Solomon runs around the limo to open the door for them. You can tell he's really nervous.
Juliet runs to grab a wheel chair and brings it back to her parents.
"I'm going to find somewhere to park this, then I'll come looking for you. Ok" He says a little too excited. He runs back to the front of the limo to find parking.
Andrew pushes the reluctant Bridget into the hospital with Juliet by their sider.
