Hi guys! So I felt abit mean as I've sat and took into consideration how long some of you wait for the next chapter so I thought i'd update for you:-)

Thursday 18th December.

7 months & 3 weeks pregnant.

.............................................................................

Angie was  in little beans nursery, she was sat in the rocking chair humming the tune to Te creo and she gently rubbed her bump.

German came in.

"Ah Angie there you are, Violetta, Olga and Ramallo are downstairs.  Violetta and I have just been out and bought a Christmas tree. We were going to put it now together as a family, you coming downstairs?"

"Yeah, I will in a minute".

German nodded and left.

"Well little bean,  Christmas is a week away. I wish you were here but of course your still growing and developing but don't worry even though you can't see what's happening, Mummy and  Daddy will still get you some little presents. You are one little spoiled girl but i'm sure your when you are born, your Daddy will spoil you rotten".

Angie smiled.

Just then Angie felt a painful twitch.... It wasn't a kick.

"Ouch, whats wrong little bean?" said Angie as she looked directly at her bump.

She then felt a similar pain again...

Angie's POv:

Am I in early labour? I can't be, I'm only 33 weeks pregnant. Or is something wrong?

Angie started to look a little worried at this point but... she didn't want to worry anyone else.

Then the pain stopped suddenly, Angie let out a big sigh of relief.

She got up and started to walk downstairs to help everyone decorate the Christmas tree.

Violetta had hold of the tinsel, German and Ramallo were untangling the lights and  Olga came in with a plate of Christmas biscuits.

Angie smiled.

"So, what's for me to do?" she asked.

"Oh Angie, there's a box of Christmas decorations over on the sofa. Can you sort through them and pick out so green, red and gold ones" said German.

"Ah okay, i'm guessing were going for a traditional looking Christmas then?"

"Yes of course, Angie" said Violetta with a smile.

"Miss Angie would you like a biscuit" asked Olga.

"Yeah thank you Olga" replied Angie as she took a biscuit from off the plate.

She bit into it.

"Yum, their delicious. No-one will ever bake as good as you Olga" added Angie.

Olga the look of pride across her face.

"Why thank-you Angie, that is such a lovely complement".

As she finished eating the biscuit she sat on the sofa looking through the box of decorations.

Violetta chirped up again.

"Oh I can't believe little bean will be born soon and this time next year, it will be her first Christmas. That will also be our first proper family Christmas. I can't wait until she is born".

"Neither can I Vilu" said German as he looked over to Angie.

Angie smiled.

Angie and Olga hung all the baubles on the tree, German had put the light on the tree and Violetta had put on all the tinsel.

"Now for the last touch, the star" said German.

"Who want's to put it on the top of the tree?" he added.

Angie looked at German and smiled again they knew who.

"Vilu, do you want to do the honour of putting the star on top?" asked Angie.

Violetta's face lit up.

"Can I!..Can I really?" she shouted.

German nodded

"Of course Vilu, little bean will probably be only a couple of months old this time next Christmas but we will try and let you both put the star on top together next year. So consider it as your last time putting the star on yourself" replied German.

Violetta nodded.

"Thank you Dad and you to Angie!".

She hugged Angie and then turned to her Dad to hug him. After the hug he gave Violetta the star.

Violetta walked over to the tree and put on the star.

Olga and Ramallo began to clap while German had hold of Angie's hand.

"Ramallo turn the light's on please" asked German.

"Yes Sir".

Ramallo turned the lights on and the tree looked magical!

"Oh it's beautiful!" shouted Violetta.

Olga nodded in agreement...followed by German. Angie just smiled.

Suddenly the pain came again.

Angie screamed..everyone turned to look at her. Now little tears ran down her face.

"What's the matter Angie!?" shouted German looking very concerned.

"The pain...it hurts...so.. much" Angie was struggling to breathe".

"Quick call an ambulance" shouted Olga.

Violetta ran to get the house-phone and passed it to Olga.

German had held of Angie's hand.

Olga on the phone:-

"Hi, I need an ambulance straight away. My friend is 33 weeks pregnant I think she might be in early labor".

German looked totally shocked, Angie was still crying, Violetta was trying to get her to do some breathing exercises.

German looked over to Olga.

"Early labor!? She can't... she till has 2 months and a week to go! You must be wrong"

"Look Mr German, you can't be too safe or unsure in these situations. Angie could be in early labor, or it could be a very bad case of braxton hicks. I might not have had any children but I know how these things work".

German nodded and kept hold of Angie's hand. Angie looked beside herself...

.............................................................

What do you think early labor or braxton hicks?

Also judging by the  comments in the last chapter... I gathered Grace, Rosielee, Anya and Emma were the most popular names. So little bean's name will be for definite one of them names. I'll need your help to choose so please comment two of your favourtie names. Only 2 mind:-)

P.s Christmas is a week awayyyyy!!:D
