Surprises and Struggles

Lovely

As excited as he was to be having another baby, the morning sickness was not so great. Yoongi had started taking Mina to school. Jimin tried to power through it, but they would have to pull over so Jimin could throw up. The brunet had always brought Mina to school or at least went with.

"Stay home and rest, baby, I'll take Mina to school and come back and we can cuddle." Yoongi says gently as he rubbed Jimin's back. The younger had his face buried in the toilet, lips parted as he waited for his stomach to calm or throw up again. He made the mistake of acknowledging his husband with a nod. His stomach churned and he gagged. Yoongi grimaced a little but continued to rub Jimin's back.

"Daddy?" Mina asked from the back seat of the car.

"What, baby?"

"Why mommy sick all the time?" She says sweetly. "Mommy brings me to school no more. The last time he brought me, he stopped the car and got sick. I don't like it when mommy's sick, daddy." She let's out a soft little sigh and a cute pout that Yoongi can see in the rearview mirror.

"I don't like him sick either, baby. We'll tell you when we get home after school, okay?" Jimin's about seven weeks pregnant now. So they are pretty much in the clear to tell her.

For Mina, the day still went by quickly and now she was sitting on Yoongi's lap as they all sat on the couch.

"Mina, how would you like to have a little brother or sister?" Yoongi asked their daughter. She stared at her parents for a moment before a smile broke out on her face.

"Am I getting one?!" She was bouncing on Yoongi's leg waiting impatiently for an answer.

"Yes, you are." Jimin answered, hands subconsciously touching his flat stomach.

"Where is it? When do I get one?"

"In about seven months, right now it's right here in my belly." Jimin pulled up his shirt and pointed at the area.

"Why isn't your belly like Uncle Kookie's was?" Somehow she remembers Jungkook's pregnant belly. She liked to hug his stomach and talk to the unborn baby.

"It will be one day, but the baby is very small right right now." Jimin made a size comparison with his hands.

"Is it going to be a boy or girl?" She asked, they were happy the girl was excited about getting a sibling.

"We got about two months before we get to find out. It's too early to tell right now, unfortunately." Yoongi gently pet her hair.

"I don't care if it's a boy or girl. As long as they are healthy." She said proudly. Jimin literally started crying at that. She's four years old, isn't she supposed to be somewhat biased? "Mommy, what's wrong?" Her expression fell noticing Jimin's tears.

"Nothing, baby, I'm just so happy and proud of you." He smiled through his tears. Mina returned his smile and hugged him.

"You don't need to cry, mommy." She held her mom tightly and pet his brown hair to soothe him. Yoongi thought that was absolutely precious, quickly snapping a picture on his phone.

*******

Six weeks later, now thirteen weeks pregnant, Yoongi and Jimin actually picked out a name for their unborn child. Min Jihyun. Which worked for a boy or girl. The name is honor of Jimin's little brother, Park Jihyun.

At this point, Jimin was already showing a bit. He was excited not only to be growing another child, but for the experience Mina was getting from it. Although her curiosity would wonder into some things that she was too young to know, they did their best to answer her questions. Luckily, she only asked how the baby got in there once and her parents hope it stays that way because they probably couldn't explain it remotely the same way twice.

Right now, she liked curling up next to Jimin's small bump and attempting to read to the baby. Jimin would rest while Yoongi helped her read and say the words properly. Unfortunately, he sometimes would be so contented that he would fall asleep to his husband and daughter's voice. This pregnancy wasn't as hard as his first but he found himself a lot more tired and his belly quite a bit bigger. Not that he minded, he really wanted it. He really wanted this baby.

One night, Jimin woke up to movement in the bed a soft whispers and a small hand touching his stomach.

"If you're a boy you will be handsome like mommy and daddy and if you're a girl you'll be pretty like them too. I look just like daddy, so if you can, try to look like mommy, that way mommy doesn't feel left out. I'll share my toys with you too, but please don't ruin them unless I say you can. Also, try not to wake up daddy. He gets cranky if he's woken up." She continued talking to the baby and running her hand over the bump. Eventually though, Mina audibly yawned and crawled in between Jimin and Yoongi, and tucked herself against her mother's back. Realizing his daughter's presence, Yoongi snuggled closer to his husband and little girl and tossed an arm around the two, letting his hand rest on Jimin's belly next to the younger's hand. Yoongi had a habit of always touching his tummy, even while sleeping, and his husband loved it. He can't feel movements yet, but he's positive the baby loves it too.
