Niall Horan Child Preferences Book 2

#62 You ask his mum a question about pregnancy

Your POV

Niall and I were visiting his parents in Ireland and we decided to have the baby be born here so we will be here a while. I was currently 8 and a half months pregnant and our baby girl could come at any moment.

Niall was upstairs getting ready and I was in the kitchen helping Maura prepare breakfast.

"Maura, can I ask you something? And can you be honest?" I asked . "Of course dear" she said.
"How much does it hurt giving birth?" I asked.
What you both didn't realise is that Niall was stood in the doorway listening. He liked that you went to his mum if you were worried about anything.

"I'm not going to like to you y/n , it hurts a lot unless you have a c-section which you probably won't" she explained.
"Is there anything that helps with the pain?" I asked.
"Well, you can get epidurals now which helps with contractions , I'm not sure of it helps with the actual birth but when I had Greg and Niall we didn't have things like that" she explained.

"Thanks for being honest" I said. "I'm just extremely nervous" I breathed out.
"Don't be, Niall will be with you every step of the way, well he better be or else and I will be in the waiting room with everyone else, you'll be fine" She said and I smiled.

"Don't worry, I will be there every step of the way, I wouldn't miss the birth of my baby for the world" Niall spoke up wrapping his arms around my waist from behind.
"I'm guessing you listened?" I asked and he nodded.
"You are so nosey Niall" Maura commented chuckling.

"Also, Nialller, don't be mad if she breaks your hand when she gives birth" Maura told her son. "W..what?" He asked his eyes widening. "You heard me,don't be angry if you get a broken hand" She repeated. "She wouldn't do that" Niall said.
"You'd be surprised Nialler, and anyway a broken hand is still less pain than giving birth, so be thankful you're a boy and not a girl" Maura said.
"Boys have it bad too!" Niall argues.

Maura and I looked at him raising his eyebrows. "How do boys get it bad?" I asked.
"Voice cracks at any time" He said.
"Periods every month for 30 or 40 years" I defended.
"Umm....there's another one about boys which I'm not going to say in front of my mum"Niall said and I laughed knowing what he meant.

Maura left the room to wake up everyone else as breakfast was nearly ready.
"I love that you're really close to my mum" he said hugging me and resting his head on top of mine.
"Me too, it's good to have some decent company sometimes" I teased.
"Hey! I'm good company! You know you love me!" He defended sounding offended. I giggled at his reaction.
"Unfortunately I do love you" I said pecking his lips. "Love you too" He said smiling.
"I'm still terrified because I have a feeling she's a big baby, I mean look at the size of my stomach!" I said.
"Don't be, you'll do amazing" Niall said.
