Comment any ideas or things you think would make this book better! I have plenty of ideas but I want to see what you all want!!

Eliza POV
It's been 6 weeks since we found out and today is the last day of my first trimester. It's so exciting that there is a little baby in my belly. My family still doesn't know. I'm not really showing but morning sickness the past few weeks has kicked my ass. It's finally slowing down but back pain isn't. Alex has been waiting on my hand and foot and refuses to let me do just about anything. It's a Saturday so I am off which is great because my job has become grueling. There are so many mean girls who work with me and are jealous of me and my marriage. It's ridiculous that they act like junior high girls. No one knows about the pregnancy besides me and Alex but tonight we are having his friends over and my sisters over so we can tell them. I have a lot of cleaning to do and Alex is welcome to say it's too much any time.
"Babe what should I make for dinner tonight?" Alex asks me coming in with tea.
"Sorry but your two recipes are boring me. I'm cooking tonight,"
"No you're not,"
"Alex a baby doesn't make me a flight risk." I tell him rolling my eyes.
"You passed out,"
"Six weeks ago. I'm cooking," I say siting up. He nods and smiles at me. He was about to say something probably about how witty I am but my phone rings. It's my boss.
"Dr. Pierce?" I ask as I answer the phone.
"I need you to come in,"
"I have to weekend off per my job hours,"
"Come in Hamilton just do it for god sakes."
"It's my weekend off," I respond.
"If you don't come in you'll have the weekdays off too because you won't have a job here,"
"Coming in," I say as I hang up.
"You're going to work?" Alex asked me.
"No. I'm not going if she fires me she fires me you have a job and I can find one too,"
"Damn woman,"
Alex kissed me and I got dressed and headed to the store. As I'm sitting in the car all I can think about is what am I gonna do? How am I supposed to be a doctor and a mother. I know it's possible but I'm a new doctor they aren't gonna let me fix my schedule. This baby deserves better. God what am I gonna do? I got to the store and got a voicemail from my boss telling me I'm fired and that my patients have been notified. Great just great. I am having friends over there is no time for anger. I get home and the guys are over they are all drinking beers on my couch. Man I miss beer. Alex smiles at me and all the guys jump up and hug me. Did Alex tell them without me?
"We have missed the better Hamilton!!" Laurens screams.
"Aw thanks," I say as Alex jokingly pouts.
My sisters show up shortly after and we are all having fun. I go to sit down feeling nauseous and end up having to run to the bathroom due to my morning sickness. Everyone is worried once I come out to the living room again and all make sure I'm good.
"Eliza are you ok? Do you feel sick? Did you eat something bad?"
"Guys I'm ok really,"
"Are you?"
Alex and I look at each other and I get up to grab the ultrasound from our room. I come out and hold it up and they all jump up on the couches and start screaming with excitement.
"OH MY GOD!!!" John Screams as he runs up to me and snatches the ultrasound photos from my hands. Herc just hugs me and Laf then grabs me and spins me around befor hugging.
Peggy and Angelica run up to me and we all hug and smile.
"Our babies will be the best of friends!!"
Angelica and I smile as she and Peggy bend down and kiss my belly. All our friends are jumping up and down and screaming.
"Ok guys let's not kill this baby please."
The guys eyes get wide when they realize they may have reacted too much and then start doting on me and pick me up and take me to the couch. They start getting me crackers but I stop them.
"Guys I'm ok I can still function while pregnant you know," I say as I stand up and start putting away the groceries. The guys smile at me and talk to Alex while we talk about the baby.
"So where's the nursery gonna be?"
"At the new house when we find one,"
Alex and I decided to move out of our apartment since the lease is almost up and I want my baby to have a backyard. They start to ask questions and Alex shows them the houses we have found online and they become expert house hunters. When they get bored of that we all sit on the couch and watch TV while dinner is in the oven. My sisters and I are cuddled up on the couch and when it comes time to eat we all sit at the table and just talk. We tell and retell many stories and laugh like nobody's business.
"Alex did Eliza ever here about the time you stole George's car in high school?"
"Oh yes Martha told me all of Alex's story,"
"Damn he did some weird shit," Angelica says with a laugh.
"Hey when I first met you you were drunk as hell and vomited in your car," Alex responded defensively.
"He's got you there love,"
Peggy laughs and remembers that night and we all can't stop laughing talking about how different we were when we were younger. Everyone leaves and Alex and I cuddle on our bed while he rubs my stomach.
"I can't wait for this baby babe," he says.
"Me neither,"
We lay and as I drift off I think about how lucky I am and dream of my sweet baby laying in my arms.
