Flashback ~ Betty's POV ~ 8 October 2016 ~ 10 am
Today is finally the day. I've literally been looking forward to this day for weeks.
All the times I had morning sickness and all the many doctors appointments will be all worth it once I have my baby in my arms. And today is the day it all will happen, the beginning of a new chapter in my life.
From the second doctors appointment I was told that the chance of giving a natural birth was really low. Since I am still so young the doctors aren't sure if my body can handle the pain from the contractions.
When I was 6 months along they made the final decision to do an C-section. My due date is today, I'm pretty excited but every hour that goes by, my anxiety became higher and higher.
"I actually can't believe this is the day, like the real day", I said to Katy in the car as we were driving towards the hospital.
She drove and I sat in the passenger seat next to her, a bag with my clothes and toiletries in the back. "I'm so nervous", I sighed.
Just then I completely panicked," What if the baby suddenly is a boy!? I'm not prepared for that Katy!!"
She turned and looked at me, still focusing on the road of course, "Betty that never happened before, stop stressing everything is gonna be alright", she said to comfort me.
"Right, Doctor Woods is a good doctor she knows what she's doing", I told myself and took deep breaths to calm myself down.
At this moment I was almost nine months pregnant. I hated the fact that I couldn't do anything because of my bump but it also felt so incredible to know my baby girl was inside it.
I remember the twentieth week when I found out I was having a little girl. Since then I started thinking about names and there were two that I liked very much.
I'm still not sure which the one is that perfect fit by her but I have a strong feeling that once I see her face I know what her name is gonna be.
"So Lea or Kaylee have you decided yet?" Katy asked.
"Nope not yet", I answered.
We drove for another five minutes and arrived then at the hospital around 10:45, which was great because I had to check in before eleven.
As Katy parked the car I looked at the background from my phone. It had still the picture from me and Jughead, I never changed it. I took a deep breath to get some courage and then got out of the car with a little help from Katy.
Once inside and on the right floor, we got told to wait for doctor Woods. She showed up in no time and I saw she brought a wheelchair.
THANK GOD she did that because walking was so hard, it made my back hurt.
"Walking is probably painful", she said.
"Yes, I can't wait for this big bump to go away", I joked.
I then went to sit in it and she brought me to a treatment room. "Go lay on the bed, the doctor who will help me with the c-section will be here around noon. In the meantime I'll do a ultrasound and set you up for it", doctor Woods explained and went to put on gloves.
Katy came and sat on the chair next to me, in the meantime I had changed into a gown and was now laying on the bed.
I sighed and turned my head to face Katy, "Can you imagine how easy it would be if Jughead was here to help me?", I said.
"I actually can't", she answered, a confused look appeared on my face.
"Betty, you've gone through so much lately on you're so strong. Believe me you can do this without him", she explained.
"But if he was here I-....", I got cut off by Katy, "We can still call him"
I shook my head immediately, "No it's to late to explain the whole thing. And do you know how mad he already is, he hasn't stopped calling. I'm scared he will yell through the phone"
"Now you're just being stupid, Jughead's worried about you, not mad", Katy told me.
I wanted to answer her but doctor woods came over to me and asked me to pull up the gown.
I did what she asked and flinched a little as she put some gel on my stomach earlier then I expected.
"I'm sorry, I should've warned you", she apologized.
"It's all fine", I smiled nicely.
"Okay so here she is", doctor Woods said after she started moving the stick around and pointed at the screen.
"Everything looks good and as you can see her head is down here", she said and pointed at the head.
"Isn't that the right position for a natural birth?" Katy asked curiously.
"It is. But like told Mrs. Cooper before, I will try to avoid contractions because they may be to strong for her body. But yes this is the position which means that if we don't do a c-section you can go into labor in a few days", she explained.
Very interesting all that stuff but the only thing I could think of was how amazing it would feel when I finally have her in my arms.
I got snapped out of my thoughts once I felt the gel being wiped away.
"I'm bringing you to the surgery room so the anesthetist can come to give you anesthesia", doctor Woods said.
She was about to ride my bed out of the room when Katy asked, "Am I allowed to come?"
"You are but you have to leave when we're really starting", she told her.
So Katy walked next to my bed as it was rolled away to a different room. When we arrived there a older woman was waiting for me.
Everything was getting set up as she started working on my hand, "I'm going to put a needle into your hand so don't freak out, maybe look away", she said, she was actually really sweet.
Just then a male doctor came into the room and immediately walked over to me. "Hello, I'm doctor Robins", he said. I shook his hand with free hand and greeted him too.
"Is she ready?" He then asked the other doctor while he was putting on gloves.
"The anesthesia needs to be finished"
"Okay", he answered and helped doctor Woods to set up some last things.
