I went to the store today during my break and picked up a pregnancy test. I just want to see if there is a possibility that I am pregnant. I just really hope I'm not because I wouldn't know who the father of this baby is it could be Yazz and it's a possibility it could be Trevor.

Two years ago I was pregnant and when I was six months the doctor told me that I had an high risk pregnancy and the baby probably wouldn't make it pass two days whenever I delivered, even when the doctor said those words to me and Yazz  he still had hope we where going to bring home our baby girl. We didn't tell either of our families that we were expecting a child in three months because we didn't want to give up anyone's hopes on this baby we didn't even know that was going to make it.

A week went by and the doctor said I was doing great I just had to come in the following week to get some blood drawn to make sure everything was okay for sure. Yazz and I were at home we had just started to decorate and buy some clothes for the baby, that night was as perfect as it could get, then all of a sudden I felt a big gush of water and blood running down my legs.

Yazz rushed me to the hospital and when we got there the doctor told me I was delivering my baby at six months. I couldn't believe this was happening I was just told a few days ago I was healthy the baby was healthy I just couldn't understand why this was happening to me? Why was this happening to us?

I delivered a baby girl at 3.5 pounds on October 2nd She was suppose to be at 5 pounds. The doctor let Yazz and I hold her she looked at exactly like him from skintone to eye color. The nurses and doctor ran some test to see why I delivered so early and why I was at high risk throughout my pregnancy. Come to find out my placenta was near the bottom part of my uterus and from that it blocked part of my cervix.

That's why I delivered so early, Me and Yazz went to the baby room and saw our baby girl in the incubator with the doctor and the nurses. One of the nurses looked up at me and asked: "Do you have a named picked out yet?" I looked over at Yazz and he was just staring at the baby like they were the only two in the room, I whispered in his ear "You can name her" I said as I  sat down in the rocking chair. He looked at me in Awe and turned to the nurse and said "Yes we have her name it is: Bella Skylar Chestnut".

I knew he was in love with her when he first saw her so I knew he would have the perfect name for our daughter. I asked him why he chose Bella and Skylar? The nurses finally gave the baby to him so he could hold her and the doctor talked to me about the birth certificate so I could sign it and so could Yazz. When that was all done I asked Yazz why he chose that name for her. He looked over at me finally taking her eyes off of Bella." Hmm?" He said. I rolled my eyes and asked the question again.

"Why did you choose that name for her? He stared at me and smiled "Well I chose Bella because it means beauty and well she beautiful like her mama and I chose Skylar because it means Scholar and she gone be smart just like her dad, aren't you Bella your going to be just like your daddy ." He chuckled. All of a sudden I heard a baby giggling I looked over at Yazz and he had a huge smile across his face "See babe I told you she's going to be smart and she likes her name."

I got up and walked over to him and stoked Bella small face moments later the nurse came in and put her back in the incubator and put her name on it Bella Skylar in big fancy letters. Three days later I was released from the hospital but Bella had to stay until she gained some weight, until she became more active, and her lungs needed to be stronger. Yazz brought a few things for Bella so when she came home she had something he brought a crib, a bouncer, a play pen, and a outfit that said: "Daddy's Little Princess" it was pink and purple with a pink headband and a pink and purple tutu.
