Heartbreak

*Emme's POV*

"I'm sorry your baby has this problem where he is too small and he is pushing against your womb which means you won't be able to carry him the full 40 weeks so around 32-34 weeks we will have to start you off otherwise if we leave it to 40 weeks he would have a 80% of dying" she said and I broke down in more tears.

"But he won't be fully grown then he would be so small" Ross added.

"That's why he would have to be in a incubator for a couple of weeks until he is fit enough to breath on his own"

"So your tell us he would have to be in a incubator and have a breathing tube?" Ross asked.

"Yes but their is a 50-50 chance of him surving because he could catch infections which could collapse his whole body because his immune system wouldn't be properly grown you would have to have a hospital check up every week to check his size but right now he needs alot of food and rest so take it easy you need to stay in overnight you can leave in the morning once you've signed some papers and then we will give you some leaflets on his condition" she said then left.

I couldn't hold in my tears any longer.

"Ross I can't loose our little boy I'm so scared of what will happen to him our baby boy" I said and Ross grabbed my hands.

"Baby we will get through it together like I said our baby boy is a fighter and he will only fight until his little body gets tired and if he wants to go we have to let him but all we have to do is hope and pray we love him and he knows that"

"I know how are we supposed to tell Rhylee that her little brother my die" I said.

"If he does we tell her that he is up in the sky playing with the angels but right now we don't have to think about that so baby get some sleep please"

I pulled my blanket up and tried to get to sleep but nothing would work I opened my eyes to find Ross trying to get comfortable in the chair next to me.

"Babe?" I said.

"Yeah?"

"Come and sleep with me please I feel lonely and you clearly look uncomfortable sleeping in that chair" I said making room for him to lie down.

"Are you sure baby you need rest?"

"I'm sure I can't sleep without you" I said he got out of the chair and carefully climbed in next to me. I turned in my side and he wrapped his arms round my waist carefully. he rested his hand on my tiny baby stomach and made little circles on it.

"I love you baby and my little man" Ross said.

"I love both of you too" I said.

"Night babe"

"Night" I said and drifted of to sleep.

When I woke up in the morning Ross was sound asleep. when the nurse came in she gave me a weird look.

"Nothing happened I just couldn't sleep" I stated.

"Oh okay anyway here's the papers once you signed it you can go and here's the leaflets" she handed me the papers which I signed and took the leaflets then she left. I nudged Ross in the side gently.

"Baby we can go now" I said and he slowly sat up.

"Okay baby where do you want to go first?"

"I want to go home and get showered then go get Rhylee I really need cuddles with her" I said getting out of bed and putting my shoes on.

"Yeah me to baby she'll be missing you"

"More like shell be missing you she's a daddy's girl" I replied as he was getting his things together.
