About a week later, I was woken up by a knock on my door. The mother is followed inside by a man I saw at Rebecca's funeral.
"This is the family doctor I was telling you about, he will be checking on the gender of the baby and depending on what gender he will go ahead and check up on it and run a few tests and if its a girl you will be given a pill to miscarriage." She told me.
Miscarriage?
But I'm further along now, the baby been having a heart beat.
Feeling my eyes start to widen I push my body back hard into the headboard, I don't think I'm ready to find out.
What if my baby's a girl?
They will force me to swallow that damn pill and I'll lose it, I'll lose the baby I have been singing and talking to, I'll lose the baby I have grown to love so much already.
"Come on Abby. Every pregnant woman has to do this. I promise it won't take long" she helps the doctor bring a machine into the room.
"Hello, Abby. I am doctor, Reed. I'm going to place this device over your belly and have a good look at your baby alright?" He asked me softly.
Nodding my head I slowly push the covers just below my belly and raise my dress exposing my growing stomach to him, but I'm covering my stomach with my hands so scared of what I'm about to find out.
"Stop that for heavens sake, let the doctor do what he needs to do, he still needs to check up on Ally." The mother snaps at me.
The bitch could show a fucking ounce of sympathy right now. She went through this. wasn't it scary for her?!
Slowly I move my hands off my stomach and let the doctor place a little bit of jelly on my belly before he begins to rub it around on my stomach and presses hard into one spot.
"I see the baby, " he says to the mother, not even looking at me when he says this.
I'm this baby's mother I want to scream. It's mine.
My heart starts to race, I haven't thought about running in months but right now I have the sudden urge to push them both away and run out of this house to protect the life growing inside of me.
"Well, good news, we have one healthy baby boy." The mother starts clapping loudly and I breathe a sigh of relief, I won't be losing my baby.
"Are you sure?" The mother asked.
"Im pretty certain. Accidents can happen." The doctor says softly.
Thank you, God, for listening to my prayers.
I start to sob as the doctor pulls my dress down over my stomach and starts to pack up his things after drawing some blood for the test he needs to run.
I don't care, he can do what ever he wants to do, he just gave me the best news. My child is a boy, I have done my wife duty and have given my husband a son.
The mother rushes out of the room probably to go tell the happy news to Colton and I look up at the doctor.
How many little girls did he have to kill?
"What happens if you make a mistake?" I asked him softly, not really wanting to know the answer but I need to know just incase for the future.
"I don't." He says shortly.
"But what if you guessed wrong and the baby's born a girl? What would my husband do?" I asked again.
Begging him inside my head to answer me.
"He will kill it," He says as he starts to push the machine out the room.
I sent up a quick prayer asking God to make it so the doctor didn't make a mistake on the gender of my baby before pulling the covers over me and going to sleep.
