A Magic Time

Chapter:37

First thing we did was let the groups know that we were not going to be on the road with them. Right as we were 'supposed' to be leaving I jumped out of bed and into the bathroom. That was the worst taste in my life. I coughed a few times before throwing up again. My hair was pulled back out of my face the second time I hurled.

A calloused hand met my back. I felt better after throwing up though. "Would you like something to eat?" Chris asked. I shook my head. "You need to eat something though." He said. Perfect. I went to stand up, an arm wrapping around my waist. "Think we're going to be parents in a few months?" He asked.

"If I don't feel sick and I'm throwing up then there's a great chance that we are going to be parents in a few months. I will swell up like a balloon, become extremely moody, and will not like certain things." I told him. He chuckled. "I won't mind all those things angel." He said.

Time lapse

The insurance company was only willing to pay partial for one ultrasound unless we absolutely have to have more done. We went for the twenty week ultrasound because we were wondering what we were having. I think Christian was even more nervous than I was. We were sitting in the waiting room of the nearest doctors office waiting for them to call me back.

It's been four months since we started trying for a baby, four months since I've stopped having my period. Three since I've puked for the first time. I've had weird cravings throughout the time. When they finally called me back, Christian stood with me, following me back. They took my weight and height before leading me to a room.

They checked my heartbeat and breathing before having me lay back on the bed. The nurse first checked for a heartbeat. She let it play over a speaker. Christian gripped my hand gently. I know he will do something more later when we get home. The nurse then went to the ultrasound showing something that resembled a baby.

Chris squeezed my hand gently. The nurse then went to a 3D image. I felt a grow in my heart seeing the moving image of something that is made by both Chris and I. "Would you like to know the gender?" The nurse asked just before the doctor came in. "Yes." I said. The doctor took a look at the screen. Then muttered something to the nurse.

A few minutes later the doctor apologized for the inconvenience before the doctor took a more closer look at the screen. The doctor asked us again if we would like to know the gender. Again we said yes to knowing what the gender was. We were then told the gender before we could leave.

His family was ecstatic when they heard that we were having a baby. His sister and sister in law were wanting to take me out to a girls day every day since they found out. Every time they would hit me up with a date, that would be one of the days that I was the most sick. I'm hoping that I will be able to go on one before I give birth to Chris and I's baby.

After getting home we fixed supper according to my diet. Then got a shower together. I'm not showing at all and am waiting on my belly to grow in any way. I placed my hands over where the baby is supposed to be. I've been feeling subtle movements all day long. I know Christian wants to be able to feel the baby kick while it's growing inside me.

I've stopped working out, going with him to the gym so he stays fit, the only thing I do is walk while there. And be Christian's back weight for when he does push ups. When we were done showering we settled into bed with a movie knowing that it won't be very long until we get some actual peace and quiet in the house.
