8 Snapshots of Vegeta with you through your pregnancy 

Snapshot 1: First Trimester

You had just broken the exciting news to Vegeta. He stared at you with a mix of surprise and pride. A flicker of a smile played on his lips before he turned stoic again. "Hmph, make sure you don't let your guard down during training."

But beneath that tough exterior, you could see a hint of vulnerability. As the days passed, he began to read books on parenting and attended birthing classes with you, even though he'd never admit it. He was determined to be the best father he could be.

Snapshot 2: Morning Sickness

The nausea hit you hard during the first trimester. You stumbled out of the bathroom, looking pale. Vegeta, ever the warrior, seemed puzzled by this unfamiliar enemy but didn't show it. "Get off your feet, woman!" he grumbled, offering you a hand to guide you back to the couch.

You couldn't help but smile at his gruff concern. He might not say it, but he cared. As you leaned against him, you found comfort in his strength. He might be a warrior, but he was your protector now.

Snapshot 3: Baby Bump

As your belly grew, so did Vegeta's fascination with it. He couldn't help but place his hand on it, his expression one of awe. "Our child will be strong," he declared, a hint of softness in his voice.

He would talk to your growing belly, promising to teach the child the ways of a Saiyan. You could see the fatherly pride swelling in him, even though he'd never openly admit it.

Snapshot 4: Cravings

One day, you craved pickles and ice cream. Vegeta raised an eyebrow but fetched them for you without a word."I don't know why you like this," he mumbled as he handed it to you, but his eyes twinkled with a fondness that made your heart melt. 

You devoured the unusual combination and caught him watching you with a small smile. "Pregnancy makes you even stranger," he muttered. But you knew he did it out of love. He'd do anything to make you happy, no matter how strange the craving.

Snapshot 5: Preparing the Nursery

As you both worked on the baby's nursery, Vegeta showed a surprising knack for assembling furniture. He didn't say much, but his meticulous attention to detail spoke volumes about his desire for everything to be perfect for your child.

He even insisted on painting the room himself, and you couldn't help but be touched by his dedication. It was a room filled with his love and care.

Snapshot 6: Labor

The day finally arrived. You were in labor, and Vegeta was a mix of nervousness and determination. He was there by your side, offering you strength and reassurance. As the baby's cries filled the room, Vegeta's stoic demeanor crumbled. "Our warrior is here," he whispered.

He might have been the proud Saiyan prince, but in that moment, he was the proudest father. As he cradled the baby in his arms, and he couldn't have asked for a better partner and mother for his child.

Snapshot 7: First Night Home

The first night with your newborn was exhausting, but Vegeta refused to let you shoulder the burden alone. "I'll take care of the night feedings," he insisted, his stern gaze leaving no room for argument. "Get some rest."

Even though he seemed gruff and tough, he was a devoted father, ensuring you got much-needed sleep while he tended to the baby. His actions spoke louder than words.

Snapshot 8: Fatherly Pride

As your child grew, Vegeta watched over them with a protective demeanor. He trained them in the basics of combat, his seriousness evident, but his pride and love for his family shining through.

He was determined to pass on the ways of the Saiyans, but he also knew the importance family. He might not always say it, but he showed it through his actions.
