🌹 Chapter 23 🌹

When I woke up the next morning I showered and started getting ready for my doctor's appointment. Eventually I told Shawn that I was pregnant and he was so happy. Then I told him it could he his or Dmoney's and he was crushed. I felt really bad about putting them in this situation. Shawn said none of the other stuff mattered and that he just wanted to be there for me and the baby. So now both Shawn and Dmoney are going to be at the doctor with me and I know there's gonna be hella tension in the room. We had my nana's funeral a few weeks ago, and my ignorant ass mother tried to throw the fact that I got the "wrong" flower arrangements in my face. Apparently they weren't to her liking as she kept referring to them as "the bottom of the barrel." Nana's favorite flowers were tulips so idk how I got it wrong, she would have knew that if she had spent more time with nana. My mother didnt tell me I did a good job at handling the funeral, no consoling or anything of that nature. There was only hate and deciet in her words when she spoke to me. She's never told me that she loved me or even that she was proud of me, its always been that way.  I'm used to it now but it still hurts, and I'm scared about my baby not really knowing any of my family. I wish nana was still here, she raised me and was more of a mother to me than my own. I want my baby to know the love that my nana gave me through out all my years. After my dad passed when I was little everything started to change. My mother grew colder as the years passed, and she took more liking to my younger sister Malaysia. She eventually remarried a year later, but i dont think she's happy. Every sporting event, birthday, and graduation nana was always front and center, she was my main girl. At first I was so depressed about her passing but I've been doing some self help lately. Its not that she's gone she just went to a better place where no one can ever hurt her again. Thinking positively that way helps me get thru the day. I really miss her but Jesus called my angel home👼 I kept these thoughts as I went outside and downstairs. I got into the new Lexus that Dmoney bought me last week, and drove myself to the doctor's office. I put some lip gloss on, and made sure my make up was right before I walked inside. When I stepped in Dmoney and Shawn were in the waiting area sitting on opposite sides of the room. Oh God, here we go with this. I thought to myself while I wrote my name on the sign in sheet. I went and sat by Dmoney and motioned for Shawn to come sit with us. He looked hestitant but he eventually came and sat by us. I held both of their hands in mine, feeling a little content that the truth was out. I did feel bad for cheating on Shawn with his brother but Dmoney was basically my dream guy. Dmoney has really been stepping up lately. He bought me a new car, we go on dates more often, he finally told me all about his family and etc. He's all in now, where Shawn I feel is barely skating on the surface. Its not that I want them to compete but I want to know who is really serious because thats who im going to choose."Seriya....hey" Dmoney said shaking my thigh. "Seriya Matthews?" I heard the nurse call my name. I quickly stood up with Shawn and Dmoney right on my heels, as the nurse escorted us to the patient room. "M'am is it okay for these gentlemen to be in here with you?" She said referring to Shawn and Dmoney. "Yea its fine I asked them to come" I said nonchalantly. "Okay well go ahead and change into this and the doctor will be with you shortly" the nurse said handing me a paper thin gown. I pulled the curtain around and quickly changed into the gown. I sat on the exam table and started looking around the room. "I just want you 2 to know that whatever happens I love both of you and I apologize for getting us caught up in this mess fr" I said nervously. Dmoney patted my leg "its gone be alright we'll get thru this". Shawn nodded but didnt speak. The awkward silence fell in the room for a few minutes until the doctor finally came in. "Well hey everybody I see we have a full house. Nice to meet yall im Dr. Seech" he said shaking all of our hands. "Alright lets begin. First before we do the vaginal ultrasound we must have a brief consultation" Dr Seech explained. "I'm just going ask a few questions. So first off have you been feeling any pain or pressure in your lower abdomen?" He asked. "Maybe a little, but not really for the most part just alot of nausea" I replied. "Okay that answers the next question as well, have you been vomiting or anything like that?" "Yes like crazy" "Okay and when did you have your last menstrual cycle?" He said jotting down notes on his clipboard. I really had to think on this one because I had been getting dicked down almost every night by Shawn and Dmoney for the last few months. "Hmm its been awhile. I think it was back in the beggining of October" I said unsure. "Okay so roughly 2 months. Alright and the last question is how many sexual partners have you had since your last menstrual cycle? If you're unsure thats perfectly fine, I know this is kind of a personal question" He said still writing. "Nah its okay and I have only had 2 partners" I said feeling a little embarrassed. "Okay that concludes our consultation. Now lets see whats going on in here" he said pointing to my belly. I had been gaining a few pounds here and there but nothing too serious. Im just ready to get this ultrasound out of the way so I can go back home im tired. I laid back on the exam table and tried to get comfortable. The first small sign of struggle I had, Dmoney immediately jumped up to help me. He even adjusted the little pillow behind my back. Dr. Seech went over to the sink and washed his hands. He cut out the light and put on some latex gloves. I put my feet in the stirrups while he finished setting up the machine. "Now just relax" he said lifting up the gown and laying a blanket over my lower body. I felt a little pressure as he inserted the tube inside me. When I looked at the moniter I saw something that made my heart skip a beat. Dmoney squeezed my hand as he saw the image on the moniter too. "Well it looks like your calculations were off a little, you're 10 weeks pregnant Ms. Matthews. Here's the head, and here's the heartbeat." He said pointing at the moniter. "Is this your first pregnancy?" He asked. "Yes" I said nodding. "Okay great we welcome first time mommies with open arms. You can talk to the nurse about getting started on some prenatals, and we'll see you back in 6 weeks so we can see the gender of the baby. Any questions before we close?" He said looking around the room. "Hypothetically if you needed to, could you do a DNA test while the child is still in the womb?" Shawn asked. Hell no is this mothafucka serious? I could really slap the shit outta him right now. I thought to myself. " Well yes you can. The procedure is called Chorionic Villus Sampling or CVS for short. CVS procedures are known to have a risk of miscarriage, so I wouldn't recommend the procedure at all. Any one else have a question for me?" Dr. Seech asked again. Everybody shook there head no. "Alright it was nice meeting you all and I'll see you back in 6 weeks for another check up Ms. Matthews." he said shaking our hands again. I quickly got dressed and headed to the main lobby. I confirmed my follow-up appointment with the nurse and she filled a prescription for the best prenatals money could buy.
