"Ughhh fuck" I grunted and hissed under my breath fighting through a contraction as I was sitting up leant over with my hands on my knees bowing my head. "Breathe" Danny mumbled crouching down in front of me rubbing up and down my legs caressing my calves softly. "I fucking am god damn it" I whined out squeezing my eyes shut as I exhaled feeling more calm. "You have to take deep breaths you can't hold your breath Kate" I heard my mom say as I could practically feel my whole body shaking as I pressed my lips together thinking to myself for a moment.
"Look at me" Danny said as I opened my eyes making direct eye contact with him. "I'm here you're not alone I'm not going anywhere" He said raising his eyebrows. "Even if you have to close your eyes and listen to my voice follow it I'm here" He said looking at me serious but concerned. "Forget everyone else in the room it's just me and you" He whispered rubbing his thumbs across my legs softly as I nodded gulping, I slowly laid back down on the hospital bed finding a comfortable position.
I was ready to get this done and over with I never experienced or imagined such pain in my entire life.
"You can do this" Danny whispered standing aside the hospital bed rubbing my hair back looking around nervously. "I feel like a lot of pressure" I gulped talking with my eyes close gripping the bar of the hospital bed as Danny overlapped my hand with his raising his eyebrows. "Like you have to use the bathroom or something?" Danny raised a brow confused then looked around at everyone else.
"Let me check she might be dilated to ten centimeters" The nurse whispered as she lifted my gown up looking under neath it as Danny moved behind her crossing his arms paying close attention. I opened my legs slowly as I looked up at the ceiling taking deep breaths as I looked down seeing Danny tilt his head watching.
"Do you really have to look?" I exhaled as he moved his eyebrows down to me then back to watching the nurse as my mom and her laughed. "He's intrigued let him be" My mom said watching from aside smiling crossing her arms. "She's ready to push!" The nurse said loudly as my heart dropped I began panicking a little feeling a bit anxiety and overwhelmed as Danny's eyes widened a little moving out the way.
I could see how nervous he was in his face I must admit it was quite funny and a memory to laugh about later.
"Do we have dad and mom in the room?!" Another nurse asked pacing in putting gloves and a mask on following another. "Yeah I'm here" Danny said taking off his hoodie taking a deep breath rubbing his hands together anxiously stepping towards the bed pushing his sleeves up.
"I'm right here" My mom said taking my hand as I squeezed hers looking down at the nurse between my legs prepping my legs up. "Now I'm gonna need you to pay close attention to me alright Katelyn?" The nurse directed as I began breathing heavily blinking a few times I gave her a solid nod. "Follow my directions alright?" She demanded as I gulped looking at Danny standing behind her looking down between my legs holding his jawline anxiously.
"Dad is here and mom is here were gonna deliver a smooth, easy, healthy baby boy" The nurse exhaled as I tilted my head back looking up at the ceiling listening to her voice trying to control my breathing.
"Were gonna count back from ten alright sweetheart?" The nurse directed as I closed my eyes listening to her squeezing my moms hand as I felt the sweat between our grip. As the nurse began counting, I lifted my head up a little squeezing my eyes shut as I gave my first push. I held my breath as I pressed my lips together continuously to push as long as I could as I tilted my head back exhaling deeply. "God" I began trembling as my mom wiped my forehead with a rag. "Again" The nurse directed as I blinked looking up at the ceiling pushing for another ten as I stopped at six. "I can't do this I can't do this" I gasped closing my eyes laying back breathing heavily as I began to cry.
"You're doing great Katelyn you hear me?" The nurse said looking up at me then back between my legs. "Push!" She directed as I squeezed my moms hand squeezing my eyes shut giving it another push. "Keep going keep going" Danny repeatedly mumbled biting down on his nail watching anxiously as I stopped gasping for air looking up at the ceiling. "I still don't see or feel the head yet" The nurse mumbled exhaling as Danny walked around the hospital bed.
"Hey look at me look at me" He said sliding his hand under the back of my head to support it. "You can do this" He whispered pacing back and forth in between my eyes as I blinked my eyes a few times breathing heavily.
"I can't fucking do this" I gasped whining out letting go of my moms hand gripping the bar of the bed. "I'm right here" Danny whispered cuffing my face with his hands getting my attention as I looked over at him. "I got you I promise" He whispered taking my hand putting it to his mouth pecking it interlocking his fingers with mine. "We're a team remember?" He raised his eyebrows as I gulped nodding getting ready to push again.
"Shut up!" I screamed out rolling my eyes back fighting through some pain turning my head side to side slowly. "I will when you give me my son" He scoffed smiling small.
"Now push" He said as I squeezed my eyes shut holding my breath pushing another ten seconds. "Keep going keep going" He repeatedly said as I let go of his hand gripping the bars of the hospital bed again. "I see the head!" My mom yelled as I relaxed exhaling deeply looking up at the ceiling blinking a few times gulping.
Danny scoffed with the biggest smile on his face blinking a few times in shock as he raised his eyebrows looking between my legs. "Full head of curly beautiful hair" The nurse said as Danny smiled so big his dimples looked molded into his cheeks. "That's definitely Danny's hair" My mom said smiling as Danny laughed a little. "You're doing great" He whispered to me leaning over to quickly kiss me, I kissed back taking a deep breath pushing my hair back closing my eyes.
At that moment I began to feel very weak and light headed as my eyes began to flicker I instantly got dizzy.
"She's gonna need oxygen mask she's no where near done here" The nurse directed to another nurse as Danny looked back and forth at me and the nurses concerned. "What's going on? What do you mean? A oxygen mask for what?" He asked placing his hand on my head in a worried tone. "I just feel like I can't breathe" I gulped hyperventilating a little.
"We need a Dr or something in here" Danny raised his voice looking around nervously. "I have a nurse coming to help assist" The nurse said to Danny as he began freaking out a little. "She needs it now" Danny said as my mom touched his arm. "Danny she's going to be fine" My mom said trying to calm him as he stared at me breathing a little heavy completely overwhelmed as he clenched down on his jaw twice.
"You're gonna be alright" He whispered hovering over me placing his hand underneath my head lifting it a little placing my face into his neck. Danny suddenly moved out the way as a nurse began applying the oxygen mask to my face as Danny watched standing behind her then looking back between my legs raising his eyebrows blinking a few times. "Holy shit" He mumbled walking away back to the side of the bed from taking a glance at the baby coming out. "Kate you're almost done I need you to push alright we have to get him out" The nurse directed as I looking up at the ceiling opening and closing my eyes slowly with the oxygen mask on.
"Push!" She demanded as I squeezed my eyes shut pushing I felt Danny place his hand under my thigh holding my leg back. "Keep going keep going" My mom chanted placing her hand over mine as I took hers squeezing it. "We got the head and shoulders out! That's the hardest part Kate! I need you to give me one last hard push!" The nurse raised her voice as I was exhausted I spaced out up at the ceiling for a moment. "Come on baby" Danny said glancing at me then back down between my legs as I gripped the bars of the hospital bed putting all my energy into the last push.
Before I knew it,
I heard my baby crying.
