Kendall -her due date-
"she's not gonna come today." i tell my mom with a laugh. she smiles
"just give her time." she says
"mom. i gave her 9 months." i say. hayes laughs.
"it's not funny." i say with a smile, looking at him.
"she'll come." my mom say, rubbing my leg.
"doubt." i say.
"just take a nap or something." she says. i nod
"i'm gonna go update everyone. i'll be back." she says. i nod again and then she walks out.
"hospitals suck." i say, rubbing my face.
"you look exhausted." hayes says
"i am, stupid." i say. he smiles
"do you feel anything?" he asks
"the contractions just feel like pressure but I don't feel any pain." I say. he nods. we've been in the hospital since yesterday afternoon. today is Gia's due date. but I don't think she'll come today.
"she's kicking." I say, rubbing my belly. he gets up and walks to me. he places his hand on my belly.
"you gotta come out today girl." he says, rubbing small circles. she kicks
"she's like swimming down." I say. he laughs.
"fingers crossed she comes today." he says. I nod.
-a few hours later-
"walking, walking, walking." I say. my mom laughs
"what if i just do some squats?" I ask, stopping and going down for a squat. my mom laughs and helps me back up.
"do you wanna go back to the room?" she asks. I nod. we make our way back to the room. I walk in with her following me. I slowly lay back down and get comfortable. a few minutes later, the doctor and Hayes walk in.
"how are we feeling?" she asks
"impatient." I say. she laughs softly
"you've hit 25 hours of labor." she says. I groan.
"she's moving a lot though so she might be here pretty soon." she says.
"I hope so." I say with a sigh. she comes over and checks a few things on me.
"I'm gonna check how far your dilated." she says, grabbing some gloves. she then quickly checks me
"Kendall. your at 9 centimeters." she says with a laugh. my mom smiles and shakes her head
"and you thought she wasn't gonna be here today." she tells me. I roll my eyes with a smile
"I'm gonna come back and check you in about an hour. if you dilated to 10, we'll go ahead and get her here." she says. I nod. she wishes me luck and then walks out. both my mom and Hayes give me an 'I told you so' look.
"shut up." I say. they laugh.
"miss Gia should make her grand entrance very soon." my mom says, rubbing my belly.
"good. hurry up, girl." I say to my belly. Hayes laughs.
-an hour and a half later-
the doctor holds Gia above the little blanket. her cries fill the room. I'm crying as well. my mom is too. they lay a blanket on my chest. Hayes goes and cuts the cord. they then lay her on my chest. my mom lets go of my hand and I immediately lay my hands on her. the nurse cleans her up with the blanket. my mom wipes my eyes
"your so beautiful, princess." I say, rubbing her cheek. her cries are now a whimper.
"happy birthday." my mom says to her. I laugh softly
"is she everything you thought she would be, Hayes?" my mom asks. he nods with a smile. I'm so glad she's here.
