Jo's POV
A week later

"Well you're hormones have went way up from the last visit. You're levels are matching the gestational age now." Dr. Colton says and I let out a breath of relief.

"Let's take a look at the baby." She says as she does the ultrasound and Ryan grips my hand.

"Such a strong heartbeat. 182." She says and I wipe away tears as she prints off several pictures.

"So, start taking a prenatal daily. Baby is strong and healthy as of right now." She says as we leave and Ryan wraps me in a tight hug.

"I can't wait for it to be here. I love you both so much." He says and I hold him as he holds me.

We head home and I sit down on the couch as Ryan snaps a picture of my belly.

I get a ding from Instagram a few minutes later.

I can't wait for my little miracle to be here in august.

I smile at him as I set my cell down and he hugs me tightly.

About an hour later I get several notifications from Instagram and sigh as I open the app.

@daniel-adair: excited to be an uncle this year! Congrats @JK1897 and @RP1973

@Mike-the-Man: can't wait to be a great uncle this year!

@ChadK1974: can't wait to be a grandpa!

@avrillavinge: so petty to announce that you are pregnant before I do.

@EA-gamer228: shut up Avril!

@Grow-a-pear2002: yeah, ffr.

As I see Christian and Layla's reply to Avril's comment I close my phone when I get a phone call.

"Hello?" I ask and I hear Avril on the other end.

"Take the post down. I am pregnant first, so take it down." She demands and I roll my eyes.

"Not happening." I say as I hang up.
