A few months later

'Bye!' Joe shouts to me from downstairs.
'See you in an hour!' I call back. I hear the door shut and collapse onto the bed from exhaustion. Joe has just nipped out to get some last minute baby supplies. It's August seventeenth, I'm due in two days, and even though I'm really excited, I'm so nervous I might as well shit myself. Okay, maybe not going that far, but near enough. It's just such a big responsibility and I hope to God me and Joe can handle it. I'm sure we'll be able to just fine, but you just don't know. People take this kind of thing in different ways.

'I'm so bored!' I sing as I walk in circles around my living room. I get so bored that when I light my Yankee Candle, I start pretending to be the candle. I stand with my arms suspended half of the way they can fully stretch (if that makes sense) and wave them around, rocking my head back and forth and moving towards the floor. 'Woosh!' I try and mimic the air as I do this. After getting bored of this, I try watching TV, which doesn't work either. I search through my slightly obsessive collection of disney films and find Frozen. People always say I remind them of Elsa, that I look like her and her personality traits are apparently the same as mine.

Twenty minutes later, I sit down with a massive bowl of popcorn, a large pizza and a huge two litre bottle of diet coke. I start the film and snuggle under the blanket, which usually goes over the sofa. I sing along to all the songs and get into it a little too much, to be perfectly honest. I love Olaf, he's so funny. I laugh at all his jokes and he reminds me of Louise a little bit sometimes. Louise is hilarious.

After the film finishes, I find my sketchbook and pencils and begin to draw. I draw a blossom tree to start with, hills in the background. A stream flowing through the middle of these hills, a sky and a sunrise, a few clouds. I then draw the back of a girl, her hair flowing behind her. I then begin to colour the image, making the sky, hills and blossom pink, the sun orange, the stream blue, the trunk of the tree and the girl's hair brown. I colour her dress purple and finish the image quickly. I check my watch, Joe has been gone quite a while. I get up and wander upstairs to find my phone so I can ring him.

I open my bedroom door and feel the pain. 'Oww!' I shout loudly, even though no one can hear me. It doesn't stop. I get to my bed as the pain near the bottom of my stomach grows and grows. I try not to shout as I unlock my phone. I ring Joe when I find his number and listen to it ring. 'Fuck.' I whisper as it rings.
'Hey, baby. What's up?' Joe asks cheerfully.
'Joe, you need to get home. Right now.' I breathe, taking deep breaths.
'Wha - why?' He sounds concerned now.
'Just do it!' I practically shout.
'Okay, okay!' Joe rushes, 'See you in twenty minutes.'
'Twenty minutes?' I scream in agony. But he's gone.

The wait for Joe is agonising. I lie on the bed in pain, nearly crying. Every now and then, there is a short shot of pain. Of course, I know what's going on. I just can't believe it. I need Joe. Right now. I take deep breaths. As I look down, I notice my leggings are soaking. Oh God. Oh, no. How did I not notice this until now? Oh, Jesus. It's happening. No, no, no. Yes, yes, yes. I try to keep my head on as a panic rises in me. I hear the door slam and Joe's voice, 'Stel?'
'Joe? Up here!' I shout back. I hear Joe running up the stairs as I move to the door. I wrench it open and lean against the doorpost, wiping my forehead with the back of my hand.

'What is it?' Joe asks, a seriously worried look on his face.
'What's wrong? Can't you tell?' I am getting agitated at every little thing now. I need to calm down, take a chill pill. Fuck that, I need gas and air. Joe just looks completely lost. I knock a hand off the doorpost. 'Well?' I begin, 'What are we waiting for?'
'I dunno, you tell me!' Joe stresses, confused. I scrunch my face up in pain.
'Joe, can you not tell?' I breathe. Joe just looks lost and shakes his head. I sigh loudly and hold in a shout from the pain. 'Joe,' I stop for a second, look him in the eyes. 'The kids are coming.'
