"So because of your tuberculosis, the baby will probably have asthma. But I think that's all that will affect the child." The doctor says.

I sigh with relief. Asthma isn't too life threatening, as long as it's not major.

"We're going to give you another ultrasound, and just check the child's growing healthily." The doctor adds.

This ultrasound is almost exactly like the last one, except we didn't get the pictures.

"So, any questions?" He asks.

"When's it due?" Stampy asks.

"The 20th January. Though sometimes babies come earlier or later than their due date. Any more questions?" He answers.

Stampy and I both shake our heads.

"Ok, then. You're done. I'm booking another check up soon."

We nod and get up ready to leave.

But before we head out, the doctor adds one more thing.

"Beth, remember to take it easy. I won't say anything else. Take it easy."

What does he mean? I nod, but rush off with Stampy.

I stare out the car window, thinking over the doctor's words.

What did he mean? The moment replays in my mind.

"Take it easy."
