Flaw in the System

"Ah, so I see you have already begun your pregnancy wardrobe." They doctor joked as she welcomed her into the room.

"Oh yes, everything is so.... Uncomfortable." She scrunched her nose and sat on the examine choir and getting Wooseok in the chair he's supposed to sit on.

"And who's this?" The doctor asked, washing her hands and eyes Wooseok through her glasses.

"This is the uncle of the baby."

"And where's father?"

"Still doesn't know. His brothers are helping me with the reveal." She half bullshitted and the doctor nodded.

"Reveals are always fun." She smiled and snapped on blue gloves. She tucked a paper towel into her pants to sheild her yoga pants from getting gel on it and giggled.

"Cold!" She warned and squirted the gel onto her tummy making the younger jump and awkwardly laugh.

"Alright, so first, we're going to hear the heartbeat." The doctor said as she lifted a wand type of thingy.Wooseok has opened up his camera and was now recording everything.

The doctor placed it on the lower tummy, moving it till the muffled beat became clear.

"That is your strong baby's heartbeat." The doctor said, smiling up at the emotional mother who was biting back tears, "There's only one indicating one baby." She informed and Jae chuckled, mentally thanking God.

"And now we get to greet your baby again." The doctor said and cleaned off the wand then putting it against her, shifting and gliding on the skin till they saw the clear blob.

"You are currently in your 14th week, meaning 3 months. At two months, the baby had begun to form its face and made little ear nubs. But, now that your three months your baby is learning to swollow and suck, it can now hear through your tummy, so communication with it would be really good. It's sensitive to bright lights and is now growing thin hair. Your baby seems to be doing just fine." The doctor informed and took the wand off and cleaned her up.

Wooseok had stopped recording after that, wiping a tear away or two. The doctor sat on a swivel chair with a clipboard.

"And now the boring part." She joked and smiled up at them, "Question time!" She sang songs.

"Symptoms?"

"Lots of heartburn, occasional morning sickness, some cravings, lots and lots of bloating. I'm very emotional and I've grow a bit of a bump and my boobs are starting to swell a lot."

"Just give them a break, don't wear bras. Get a few wireless bras to wear out of the house, but other than that- let them free. Trust me, it just gets worse from here. Are you taking any multivitamins?"

"Yes, prenatal and those others that was suggested in the pamphlet."

"Atta girl. Vaginal discharge?" The doctor asked and she snorted as Wooseok made a face.

"You can wait out there, the rest of the questions are quite... Graphic." The doctor smiled kindly, but her teasing eyes glinted. Wooseok nodded and left, looking disgusted.

"Uh, yeah a bit. I've been wearing pads. It makes my boyfriend think I'm on my period." She giggled and the doctor smiled.

"Sex?"

"Only once since I've found out."

"How's your sex drive? Libido?"

"Pretty normal, i am very sensitive however and I do notice that I do tend to want more than before... But it's not.. Unbearable." She shrugged and the doctor wrote it down.

"How's going to the bathroom?"

"Hell. I pee more, i hated going pee to begin with and sometimes I get constipated. It's horrible." She groaned and the doctor chuckled.

"Prunes can help a lot. How's everything emotionally?"

"I cry a lot more, that's it."

"Not bad, Now... How's your diet? Exercise?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Mainly consists of rice crispy treats and laying in bed." She winced and the doctor chuckled.

"Keep an eye on that. Remember, when eating pregnant, its quality and not quantity. I would say walk around the block, do some pregnancy yoga. If you get too overweight while pregnant, we'll have to put you on a diet." The doctor warned and Jae gulped in nervousness.

"Y-yes Ma'am."

"Alright, now just pee in this cup and your done. Your picture is up front."
