Raising The Fanning Girls

Baby number 5

Baby number 5's due date came around pretty quickly (August 31). Ginny had spent Harry's birthday and all her children's birthday pregnant. From the time she told the children she was pregnant on Dakota's birthday to now. Everyone had supported the pregnancy. Though it was a little risky (Like the pregnancies with James and Albus) everyone hoped that Ginny and the unborn baby came out alive.

It was discussed between Ginny and Molly a few years back before Ginny was even pregnant with James that every pregnancy she had would be risky.

(Flashback: 14th June 1999)

"Mum, you know that you always say that pregnancies would be risky, what does that mean?" Ginny asked her mother.

"Because I've had two ectopic pregnancies. One before Bill and one after you. I never told you because I never wanted to put you off. I want you to have children. But what I want you to discuss with Harry before the wedding is that you might have miscarriages. If you ever have one, please. With everything you and Harry have. Come straight to me." Molly explained to her only daughter.

"I want kids as well. But now I don't know what to do. I don't want to risk it but if I do ever get pregnant. I don't wanna put a life to an end. Of course I'll have it and hopefully keep it safe and well protected" Ginny told her mother.

(End of flashback. Back to 31st August 2008)

But Ginny prepared herself and her family that she might not pull through.

"Elle, Dakota. Can we talk?" Ginny said one night when James and Albus where in bed.

"You kids aren't in trouble" Harry said, reassuring the girls.

Elle and Dakota entered the living room and sat down on the couch with their parents.

"As you know, every time I get pregnant it leaves a huge impact on my body. So if the baby goes over the due date, then I'll have an emergency C-section. But we'd also like to talk about where you'll be staying when the baby is born" Ginny explained.

"Uncle Ron and Auntie Hermione have said that they will look after you if you decide to go there. With Rose and Hugo. You'll only be staying for 3 nights. The night before the due date, the due date and the day after. Which is 30th August, 31st August and 1st September. " Harry told them.

"What about nanny and grandad Weasley?" Elle asked.

"They'll be coming to the hospital and watching if everything goes well and I can give birth naturally" Ginny said to her middle daughter.

"what about nanny and grandad Potter?" Dakota explained.

"I'll ask them tomorrow if you would like" Harry told his girls.

"Yes please dad" Elle and Dakota said at the same time.

"If you where eighteen and older, I would have let you stay with us. But your only 10 and 14 so they wont allow that" Ginny said to Elle and Dakota.

*August 30th*

"Bye kids" Harry said to his daughters.

"Come here girls. Give mummy a hug" Ginny said, watered eyes.

Elle and Dakota gave Ginny a hug and kiss and gave her a good luck as she walked inside Harry's parents home.

"Good luck son. Good luck Gin. Our hearts spill out to you and the baby" James said.

James walked inside the home, carrying both James and Albus.

Lily wrapped her son and daughter-in-law in her arms and gave them a good luck.

"Good luck Ginny and I hope to be a grandmother to the new baby. Hope to see you alive. Both of you" Lily said as she turned on her heels and walked inside the Potter House.

"Your mum's wicked" Ginny told her husband.

"I know. My dad's a little weird though" Harry said as he helped he get in the car.

*3 days Later*

Baby Lily Luna Potter was born 1st September 2008. At 8:35am to Harry and Ginny Potter. she had 2 older brothers and 2 adopted older sisters.

"babe. There at it again. Lily's never going to get to get one day of peace. Poor baby." Ginny said fuming as she looked down at her sleeping newborn daughter in the baby cot in the living room.

"I feel sorry for us all. We can't get a minute peace" Harry said.

"And it's all my fault" Dakota and Elle said at the same time.

"How is it your fault Kota and Elle-Baby?" Ginny asked her daughters.

"If I didn't work for the film industry then I wouldn't be famous. Then we wouldn't be harassed every time we walk outside the front door. Even to grab a parcel people are flocking" Dakota explained.

"If I didn't as an actress in the film industry and been in so many popular great films then we wouldn't get harassed by the cameras and the humans every time we walk outside. Even to take James and Albus to the park. To go to the shops. Are we supposed to starve?" Elle said. Making different points as she developed in her speech.
