Conner and Lexi

Addison Isla Rose James

“Here we go I see the head you’re doing well”

“Good girl keep going” my mum said. 

“PUSH ,PUSH THE HEAD IS OUT, one more big push and the shoulders will be out” I gave another push as the contraction hit, god this is painful not as bad as I thought It would be but still painful enough.

“THATS IT SHOLDERS ARE OUT now ONE more push and she will be here” I gave my last push and  a few seconds later felt her release from me , I slumped back down and rested my head against the pillow.

“GOD THAT WAS THE HARDEST THING IVE EVER HAD TO DO” I slightly yelled, I lefted my head to see Jade cut the umbilical cord and then I heard my second daughter cry

“Can I see her now” I asked as the nurse was wrapping her up in a blanket

“Here you go, well done” the nurse said as she passed my baby over to me. I looked at my daughter and I just couldn’t believe that she was so perfect and exactly like her sister, but I knew  I would know who was who because I’m there mother.

“She looks just like her sister, they both are perfect” Jade said

“ They sure are, can I please have Emily mum I want to hold both my daughters” I asked mum,

“Of course they both are beautiful, have you got a name yet?” my mum asked as she handed me Emily. I looked down at both my girls next to each other sleeping peacefully

“Yes I’ve chosen Addison Isla Rose James” I said as I was looking down at both my girls sleeping peacefully in my arms, the nurse came over to me

“Both the girls are healthy Emily weighed 6 pound 3 ounces and Addison weighed 6 pound 8 ounces”

“Thank you so much, why I am still hooked up to these monitors?”  I asked

“It’s so I can see when you start you next contraction ready for the next baby” she said then mum spike and Jade all gasped I was in shock and confused  I snapped my mouth shut when I realise my mouth was wide open

“What are you talking about both my girls are here?” I asked

“Yes but you still got one to go didn’t you know that?”

“NO I only got told I was having twins and that was a while after I got told I was having one baby then it was two and now it’s three” I said shocked

“I thought you were having twins as well because that is what is on your file but when Addison was born there was still a heartbeat on the monitor indicating there is still a baby left, I thought there might of been just a mistake on your file and you knew that it was triplets but clearly I was wrong you don’t know, your third baby must of been hiding behind one of the girls sometimes that happens and we don’t know until the birth”

“MUM! ”

“I know huny I’m shocked to but it’s all right” then I felt something that was familiar another contractions was coming .

“MUM takes the girls” she took Emily and passed her over to Jade and then took Addison from me

“Lexi its time to push again are you ready one my count” the nurse asks as she got prepared to deliver my third child

“1  (Pause ) 2 (Pause) 3 and PUSH” 

This baby is easier than what my girls were  it feels like he or she is just slipping out, I wonder if I’m having a girl or boy I hope it’s a boy it would be perfect I would have 2 daughters and a son.

“I see the head keep going” after about 2 minutes of pushing the nurse said

“Lexi the head is out but you need to stop pushing the umbilical cord is wrapped around your baby's neck” I started to panic

“IS MY BABY GOING TO BE OK” I said as I was fighting back the urge to push, I felt allot of tugging and pulling it was very uncomfortable

“Ok push really hard now lexi we need to get this baby out now ” the nurse said I noticed she was panicking a bit

“WHAT ABOUT THE CORD” I yelled not knowing she managed to get it off my baby’s neck

“I’ve gotten it off the baby’s neck PUSH NOW” I started pushing harder than I did before  because I was really worried and wanted to get my baby out.

“Keep going one more push and your baby will be out” the nurse said I pushed and 20 seconds later I felt my baby fall out into the safety of the nurses arms, and then I saw the nurse take him over to the baby table

 “IT’S A BOY” I couldn’t believe I have 3 babies and my third was a boy  BUT then I noticed that my son isn’t crying WHY ISNT HE CRYING HE SHOULD OF CRIED BY NOW??
