Monica
You've been trying IVF for a while, but nothing has worked. You gave up hope and stopped trying the treatment. One rainy afternoon when she was at work, you decided to take a pregnancy test. You weren't expecting anything, but to your surprise it came back as pregnant. Your eyes widened and a tear fell from your eyes, you started laughing to yourself in disbelief, running to the phone to call Monica.

"Hey, Babe. It's really hectic at the restaurant, is everything okay?"
"Oh, uhh, yeah. Everything is great. I just need to tell you something when you get home"
She heard you crying in the background and automatically thought the worse. "She's breaking up with me over the phone?" She ran home, having to tell everyone it was a family emergency, she got a few scoffs and eye rolls as this was one of the busiest times of the day.

Monica opened the apartment door, throwing her keys onto the counter. She was in such a blur of emotions that she missed the positive pregnancy test next to you. "I thought you were working until 8 tonight?"  You asked.
"I told them it was a family emergency. And I should be the one asking the questions, you were really going to breakup with me over the phone?" Monica asked, throwing a million questions at you, you just laughed and shook your head, handing her the pregnancy test.
"Surprise"
She stopped mid sentence, falling down to the seat next to you. She tried to form a coherent question, but failed. You smiled and nodded your head, "we're going to be parents, Mon".

Rachel
Her parents offered to pay for IVF, despite being against the idea. Rachel didn't let that upset her though, as she knew what she wanted and no one could convince her otherwise. It took a while to decide who would carry the child, but you both chose you would be a better option.

You've been trying for months, it was soon approaching the first year. You both knew how hard it would be, but you still continued it.

It was the morning of your 4 year relationship anniversary and you decided to try a pregnancy test, you weren't expecting anything, but to your surprise it was positive. It didn't feel real.

You decided to make Rachel a breakfast, she always slept in late anyway. You made everything imaginable, eggs, bacon, sausages and the rest. However, you wrote a letter to her, telling her about the pregnancy - which you would give to her at the end of the meal.

You nervously knocked on your bedroom door as Rachel arose from her sleep. "Good morning" you said softly. "Good morning, babe" she replied, smiling. "I made you breakfast, feeling hungry?" "Always".

She finished the meal and kissed you, "That was perfect, thank you" She pecks your lips. You smiled, "I've still got another surprise, here" you say, handing her the envelope.

".... A-are you s-sure?"  She asks in shock, you nodded your head and handed her the test. She sprang up, sitting on the bed and gave you the biggest hug she could.

Phoebe
It was your first time trying IVF, you both felt a little weird trying it. You decided it would be best if you both tried it at the same time, as it would double your chances of getting pregnant.
You spent so long trying to save enough money up for it and you finally did.

"Are you ready?" You ask, placing the pregnancy stick down, her copying you with hers. "Ready as I'll ever be" She smiles, holding your hand.

They both show up positive. "Mine is positive!" She yells, "Mine too". You look at each other and smile, "we didn't plan this through, did we?" You look at her laughing.
"I don't care! We're going to be parents"

Chandler
You were both waiting patiently, staring at the pregnancy test, waiting for the two lines to show up. You've been trying for months and you expected that today was the day. Chandler held your hands and kissed your shoulder as the line began to show. One line. "What does that mean?" Chandler asks. You didn't say anything and just shook your head. Chandler pulls you in close, letting out a sigh. "It will be okay, we can always try again or even look into adoption. Or even stop if that's what you want." You smile, pulling away and kissing his cheek. "Thank you"

You stand up and pick up the pregnancy test, the second red line shows.
"Look! The second red line"
"Does that mean—"
He's cut off by you nodding excitedly
"I'm going to be a dad!" He shouts and picks you up, spinning you around

Joey
You're both sitting on the barcaloungers, you on his lap. "I've got something to tell you" You say in a sing song way. "What is it?" He asks excitedly. "I'm pregnant"

You weren't scared of telling him as you already knew he would be as excited as you are.
He jumps around, hugging and kissing you. After a few minutes he sits down,

"So, how are you feeling, uhh feeling pregnant?"
He asks, confused. "Babe, you can't exactly feel if your pregnant" You smile back at him as he places his hand on your stomach.

Ross
You looked down at the pregnancy test, the words positive was in red, bold capitals. You had no idea how Ross would react, but you knew you had to tell him soon. "Ross" you called out, a few seconds later he came into the bathroom, "what's up?". You hand him the test, he grabs it hesitantly. "Does this mean...?" You nod your head. Silence fell in the room for a few more moments. "How are you feeling?" You ask, unsure of what to say.

"I'm okay, it's just a lot to take in. But I'm glad, are you okay with this?" He asks you, placing his hand onto your shoulder. "I'm feeling good about it" You reply, Ross hugs you. "Wait, did you pee on this?" He asks, dropping the stick. You both laugh and kiss.
