chapter thirty two

Alesha

I had been having small, bordering on the edge of painful, contractions for about half the school day. I looked up the type of contractions that I was having and I found that I was in the early stage of labour three weeks early. I could get through the school day easily because the contractions weren't that painful but they were regular.

Amanda had already undressed me and we were kissing. I was on bottom and her fingers were exploring my body, ghosting over my nipples and down my stomach. I kissed her back and I bit my lip as a contraction that was more painful than the other ones I had been having came. Amanda continued to ghost over my nipples with her fingers, not realizing what was happening.

"Amanda." She looked up and looked at me worriedly.

"Are you not in the mood tonight?" She asked. "You were in the mood just a minute ago."

"I'm in labour, Amanda," I announced. She leapt out of bed and tossed me my pyjamas that she had stripped me of.

"How long have you been having contractions?" She asked, getting dressed back into her own pyjamas. I pulled my pyjama shirt back back on and looked at the clock.

"Around eight hours or so. They started halfway through the school day," I replied. I put my knickers and pyjama pants on as Amanda tossed me my flip flops. I got out of bed and slipped them on. She picked her phone up off of the nightstand to call David and Simon to come watch the girls.

We had planned this last week so we would know what to do when I went into labour but we weren't expecting me to go into labour so soon. Amanda told David and Simon the news that I was in labour and they needed to get to the house as soon as possible so we could leave to get to the hospital. I picked up my hospital bag and went into the nursery to get the nappy bag for the twins.

I placed my hands against the rail of one of the cribs, the one that would be for Abel and breathed heavily as another contraction came. I bowed my head in pain as I felt my water break and trickle down my pyjama pant leg.

I went back into Amanda and I's bedroom to tell her.

"My water just broke," I announced. Amanda looked more worried as I told her.

"David and Simon better get their arses here fast then because your water broke. Do you to change out of your pyjamas and knickers?"

I nodded as I sat down on our bed, placing the two bags beside me. I held my stomach and the babies kicked at my hands, most likely cramped now in my womb. Amanda gave me a pair of maternity shorts, fresh knickers, a nursing bra, and a nursing top. I kicked off my flip flops and got undressed, redressing in the clean clothes.

I bit my lip again as I had another contraction, wishing that David and Simon got to our house already.

David and Simon had gotten to our house as soon as they could, considering they had been finishing making love when Amanda had called them to say I was in labour. Amanda had helped me get changed into a hospital gown when we got into the hospital room in the maternity ward, specifically the natural birth wing.

I pressed my forehead against Amanda's chest and groaned out in pain as a contraction went through me. I was only five centimeters dilated and I had been in labour for about nine hours. The contractions were getting more painful and closer together with each one though and lasting longer.

Amanda rubbed my back gently, whispering soothing words into my ear and pressing soft kisses on my cheek. My mum and Amanda's mum and step dad were on their ways as we had called them as soon as I had changed after my water broke.

"We'll have two babies in our arms soon, babe," Amanda murmured softly. "And you'll have at least some of your body back."

I laughed and smiled, despite another contraction happening again as Amanda tried to soothe me. I breathed deeply as Amanda continued to rub my back.

"I want it to happen now though," I complained. I just wanted our twins to be in our arms already but my labour was slow going and if I was still in labour by the time my contractions had started earlier in the day, I would have to have an emergency c-section to get the twins out.

"I know you do and I want them in the world now too so we can hold them, love them, and cuddle them," Amanda replied softly. She planted another soft kiss on my cheek and wiped the sweat off of my forehead.

A nurse came in while Amanda and I were still talking and placed a fetal heart monitor on my stomach so the twins' hearts could be monitored while I was in labour. She checked how far dilated I was, six centimeters. More than the last check but still not enough for me to push. She also had checked the position of the twins in utero. They had dropped significantly more and were both going to come out head first.

"Only four more centimeters, babe," Amanda reassured. "If your labour continues at this rate, we'll have our twins in our arms by morning."

"We better," I agreed. The contractions were painful and were taking a lot of energy out of me. I wasn't sure if I would have enough energy to even push out one of the twins. I let out a quiet groan of pain as a contraction happened, this one more painful than the last. "I hate this!"

"I know. It hurts, babe, but just focus on the twins and holding them," Amanda sympathized. I glared at her.

[] hey guys! Alesha's in labor now and she's not happy about it. How quickly do you think the twins are going to come? What did you like about this chapter and what do you think is going to happen next? Bye until the next chapter!
