Max went to the doctor with me for my first check-up. The clinic was big and homey but elegant.

We went to the reception area and I filled out all the necessary informations while Max talks to the receptionist about the doctor; the "all big boobs and ass" receptionist was looking at him with flirtatious eyes but Max was ignoring her advances. I glared at the receptionist and I felt a jealousy spreading in my body. I wrapped my arm around his arm. "can we sit down I'm feeling a bit dizzy" I lied. We sat down at the reception area. I was looking around it was full of expectant mothers. They were looking at me and Max. Some of them were giggling and looking at Max some looked at me with distaste. Maybe they were thinking how the hell I got knocked up by the handsome guy beside me considering that I'm a plain Jane. I looked back at Max who was busy answering his emails from work. I hold his hand that was resting of the armrest.

He stopped typing and looked back at me. "I'm scared with all, the baby and us" I said. "Don't be. I'm here and we'll figure everything out. I will not leave the baby and you" he assured me. "Ms. Zoe Jones" a chubby nurse in scrub suit was calling me. I followed her in a lab and they took some of my blood and did some test. "You have to wait for 10mins for the results to come out" she smiled and ushered me back to the reception area.

"What did they do?" Max asked me. "Some blood sample to confirm that I'm really pregnant and necessary test for preggos " I smiled. We waited for our names to be called. the receptionist ushered us into the doctor's office while sashaying her big ass in front of us. Max entwined his fingers with mine and smiling at me. Rubbing circles on my hand.

We entered the office. The walls were covered with baby blue wallpaper with mini stork carrying a baby wrapped in a white cloth as border. There were pictures of babies covering the walls and modern desk with two chairs across the table.

"Good Morning Mr. Taylor and Ms. Jones. Pleasure to have you here! I'm Dr. Hilton I'm going to be your doctor until your bundle of joy comes out" the doctor was in her mid 50's and she flashed a smile at us and shook our hands. We were seated and she spoke "Congratulations you are indeed pregnant!" She said excitedly while flipping the paper on the clipboard. We both smiled at her. "Now Ms. Jones how are you feeling for the past few days?" I looked at Max and back to Dr. Hilton. My face flushed from embarrassment. "It is okay to share everything and I will give you some advice." "I feel tired all the time, and the morning sickness was adding to it it was hard for me to keep food inside my stomach and I'm like a bladder ready to explode anytime" I said and Max looked at me with worry.

"Well it is normal for a pregnant woman to experience all of that especially the morning sickness, Your morning sickness will intensify as you go along the pregnancy but when you enter your 2nd trimester it will lessen. So you have to be both careful, You, mommy have to eat healthy and stay hydrated all the time. if it is taking a toll on your work or everyday activities. I will perscribe some medication" she said looking at me and she turned to Max "and you daddy have to be there all the time with your wife" she warned and gave Max the "get it?" Look, Max nodded. "at the records here you are healthy and no problems and complications. Do you want to proceed with ultrasound?" I smiled and said yes.

We went to the adjacent room. It was spacious and different machines where there. The chubby nurse lead me to a small changing room and gave me a gown and instructed to remove my skirt and panties. I went out of the room and sitted on a chair. Max was sitted on a stool beside me.

Dr. Hilton entered the room. "Excited to see your baby for the first time? She asked. We both smiled at the doctor. "Lay down and put you feet on the footbar." I did what the doctor said to me. The monitor opened and she took a wand and put some of gel and put it inside me. Making surprised from the coldness of the gel. "There it is your little bundle of joy! She pointed at a little bean in the monitor. "And there's the heartbeat" pointing at the flickering little bean. my mouth went open. My..Our little bean..Max squeezed my hand and his eyes were glued on the screen

Tears starting to flow on my .cheeks suddenly Max looked at me. "What? Am I not allowed to cry because of too much happiness?" We laughed and he squeezed my hand and he kissed it. The doctor took the necessary measurement "Again, congratulations you are 7 weeks pregnant already entering your 8th week. How many copies do you want me to print? I'll ask my secretary to pencil you in for another appointment" She said. "5 please and thank you" I said and the doctor left us alone in the room.

"That many?" He asked. "One for you and me. I want to give one to Tia and Patrick and also my mom" I said giving him a smile. "Patrick? Does he need to?" Sulking. He looks like a boy when he is sulking. I ran my hand through his hair. "Yeah. He is my gay bestfriend since forever" I defended and he said ok not changing his sulking face.

After a minute the nurse gave us an envelope containing the ultrasound pictures giving one copy to Max. I changed into my skirt again and I hold his hand and went to the reception area to get all the prescription. "Do you want to go to my apartment? So you can rest there since it closer? but can we take detour at my office I'm going to pick up some papers if it is ok with you?" He offered nicely."That is nice of you and I will take up on your offer. I'm helluva tired" and we drive back to the company.
