I woke up needing to pee, yet again. I've had near to no sleep because of the stupid Braxton Hicks and I'm really done with being pregnant. I got up and went to the bathroom. I sat down to pee and felt like I'd peed myself but I still need to pee. I ignored it and peed before going back to bed. As soon as I lay down I felt a gush of water come out of me, like what happens in the movies "shit, David. David please I'm scared" I said shaking him. He woke up and hugged me "what wrong" he asked in his morning voice "my water just broke, David I'm so scared" I said crying. "Shhh, babe it's okay" he told me stroking my hair. "Come on were going to the hospital" he said getting up and helping me up. He helped me change and we grabbed the bag before also going to get a half asleep mason. As he was getting mason I walked into the baby's room. I looked around at the pink walls, they gray furniture and all the cute little details like toys or presents we had gotten from friends and family. "Ready baby" I heard David say looking in the doorway at me. I turned around to see mason sleeping on his shoulder and it was the cutest. I nodded and took David's hand. We walked downstairs and into the Tesla, when the contractions started to be more obvious. "Did you have contractions in the night?" Dave asked me "Yeah but I thought they were just bad Braxton Hicks and then my freaking water broke all over the place" I explained before another contraction came on. Have you called Kristen and Scott?" I asked him as he drove "Yeah Scott is a waiting up so that he can get mace" he said to me. "I'm so freaking scared" I said. David put his hand on my leg and rubbed circles with his thumb. "We're going to be okay, you have me and all of the midwives and I'm never letting you go liza. Never" he told me.
We arrived at Kristen and Scott's pretty soon and we both got out of the car "Liza don't you want to stay in the car?" David asked. "I've gotta say bye to my first baby because today is the last time he's going to be my only baby" I said. "Okay" he replied helping me up. David picked a sleeping mason up out of his car seat making him stir. I opened my arms for him and carried him to the door even though it almost killed me since he is pretty heavy and a contraction came on. "Mommy?" He asked waking up more "yeah baby, me and daddy have to go to the hospital and we're going to bring home your little sister" I told him he nodded not really understanding "love you mommy" he said to me. "I love you too baby, I'll see you soon" I said kissing his cheek and hugging him tighter. I turned around to see David waiting for his hug from mason. I handed mace over and felt an immediate pressure lifted from my back. David said pretty much the same thing I did and hugged and kissed him too. I also kissed his cheek once more before handing him over to Scotty who looked super tired and was shirtless. We waved goodbye to mace and got into the Tesla. I felt tears come to my eyes at the fact I was leaving my baby. "Liza, why are you crying?" David asked me wiping my tears with his thumb. "I don't want to leave him" I replied sniffing. "Aww liza" he said wrapping me in a hug. "As soon as Isabella is here, we will bring him to see you two" he told me kissing the side of my head "come on let's go have a baby" he said taking my hand and kissing it. I nodded and wiped away my pathetic tears. Just as we began driving another contraction came on,
One stronger than all of the other ones "shit" I said under my breath. "You got it baby, breathe" David told me focusing on the road. "Jesus it hurts so much" I said resting my hands on the side of my bump and breathing deeply. "I know baby" he said "you really don't" I said in a hell of a lot of pain. "You're doing amazing though, love you lots" he said to me. I ignored him since I wanted to hate him so much because of the pain. The contraction was soon over and I was yet again crying to David for being such an asshole. "I'm sorry bubba I love you really" I cried to him. "I know baby you don't have to apologise" he said to me "I do though because I'm such an asshole just because I'm in a bit of pain but you don't deserve it" i said "Liza please stop baby, take a deep breath and calm down, stressing out isn't good for you and Isabella so just relax. I promise I'm not offended by anything you say because I know you love me and I know you're in pain. It's okay baby I promise" he told me. I did what he said and calmed myself down trying to relax. "Five more minutes and we'll be there. Hold on baby you got it" he told me.

We arrived at the maternity hospital soon after. We signed in and were shown to the place we would be staying after she was born and then we went up to the birthing room. Everything was starting to feel even more real which made me even more scared but I ignored the feeling and got on with it. David took my bag of things down to where we would stay after the baby was born which was good because they even had a sofa bed that David could sleep on and a mini fridge. I changed into a sports bra and some jogging pants that I would obviously take off.
When David came back into the room, he sat on the edge of the bed with me, holding my hand and rubbing my back as a contraction came on. Just as it was over, Emma walked in "hey guys" she said looking excited. "Hi" I replied still gripping David's hand "well this is exciting, can you tell me about everything that's happened, what time and if you could how far apart contractions are" she explained. "Well this morning I woke up needing to pee and I had been having what I thought were Braxton Hicks contractions but must have been real ones. I went to pee and I felt some water but I assumed it was just pee, then I went back to bed and I felt a gush, like in the movies and I woke david up. And now my contractions are about 12 minutes apart" I explained "that all sounds perfect, also people think when your water breaks it's not going to be like in the movies but most of the time it is" she said laughing a little. I smiled with her and she begun talking. "It sounds like you are probably around three to four centimetres dilated, so is it okay if I have a look" she said signalling for me to lay down. I pulled off my pants and covered myself with the blankets before Emma examined me. David still had my hand gripped in his and every few minutes he would kiss the side of my head and say encouraging things.
Once Emma was done, she took off her gloves and threw them in the trash before sitting down at her computer. "Okay so I was right, you are at four centimetres dilated which means you were probably in labour quite a while when you were asleep. "I'd been having 'Braxton Hicks' all night and I was waking up like every hour" I explained. "Also since your water broke pretty early on, we have twelve hours to get baby out so probably about ten now, but don't worry because you are doing absolutely perfect, so well done liza, I'm super proud of you and I bet David is too" she said. I turned to David and he had his usual goofy grin on his face that I absolutely love. "Just as I was about to kiss him I felt the familiar unpleasant pain of a contraction. David rubbed the bottom of my back as I breathed deeply through it. They weren't too painful yet but they are pretty bad and I know that it's just going to get worse. "You got it baby, look at you" David said proudly. I smiled at him and once it was over kissed his chapped lips "David" I said to him "yeah" he replied "have you heard of a thing called chapstick" I asked him sarcastically "I think you need to use it" I said running my fingers over his dry ass lips. He lightly hit my shoulder jokingly. "Liza I have a question" David said to me "oh god" I replied laughing "go ahead" I said. "You know when Emma checks how many centimetres dilated, how does she do it?" He asked innocently "she kind of just sticks her fingers into my vagina and sees how many she can fit in as takes an educated guess" I replied laughing "that's my job" he said also laughing "ew, you're actually so gross" I replied. "Can you like, feel it?" He asked "yeah a little but since the baby's head is low down it's not like she's sticking her fingers right up there, she just puts them in a little to check how spread out I am" I said laughing at how immature I am. "That's nice" David said looking disgusted "well, you asked" I said laughing "I have some other questions but they're also kind of gross" he said. "Ask away Dave, we have ten hours" I replied. "Okay, can you feel it when the baby comes out?" He asked "yes and it is the worst thing ever, but apparently its easier with an epidural and I'm getting one this time so I'm not sure what happens when you have an epidural but I assume that you can still feel it" i replied. He asked a few more strange questions before another contraction came on and I was relying on David to get me through again. Which he did.
I really don't even know how I would get through this without David. He helps me through contractions, makes me laugh and even isn't scared to ask questions that he knows he's going to get a gross answer to, but that's just David and he's mine.
