Shanay's POV
*4 months later*
The doctor told us the the baby should be arriving any day now, i cant wait to hold my daughter, i cant wait to take care of her. Luke has been waiting, ever since he found out that we are having a daughter he has been buying clothing, he also painted her room pink, not my favorite color but I can live with it, he has been really mature lately and I'm really proud of him for that, the other day we thought that i went into labor, he helped me, he had a bag ready for me, helped me to the car and we rushed to the hospital.
When the doctor checked to see if i was in labor he was so sad because he thought that was the day that he would finally meet his daughter.
We got home after the doctor said that we were fine to go, and i had a food craving. I was craving for the weirdest things ever.
I wanted all sorts of things. First it was Mc Donald's then it was ice-cream and chocolate then I wanted spaghetti and meatballs. I felt stuffed after all that food, I was going to explode at any moment.

Later that evening
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Babe, i dont feel so well." I said to him, I felt like I was about to vomit any moment. And then all of a sudden I felt this wet feeling in between my legs, like i was peeing.
I stood up and saw that the floor was wet, seeing this made me freeze, I didnt know what to do because this has never happened before. Maybe I should tell Luke.
"LUKE! Fuck, HELP ME!" I screamed and heard Luke rushing down the stairs to see what has happened to me. He started to panic, I saw him rush to get the bag we had just put away this morning.
"This is it, its really happening, babe are you okay?"
I was in so much pain right now because I could feel that this baby was ready to come out into the world, this all feels so surreal. I cannot believe that I am finally about to see my daughter. She has been growing in my womb for 9 months and the time for her to meet us is finally here.
Luke got the car and helped me into it. He drove really fast because we didn't know how much time we had, we got to the hospital in 15 minutes. He got out of the car and went to get a wheelchair, he came back and helped me to get into it. We went to reception and he told them that I was in labour. They took me to the maternity ward and got me preped for giving birth, Luke and I had this whole plan that we would deliver this baby through natural birth. The doctor said that we were good to go for the delivery and they gave Luke some scrubs to get into. He went into the bathroom to get dressed. He came out and they lead us to the delivery room.

Our beautiful daughter was born at 2.5 kg's and she was healthy. She was born at quarter past 11 in the night. I already love her so much. Luke cannot even get enough of her, he won't let her out of his sight. He told both our parents that I went into labour but no one could make it yet, my parents came to visit the next morning and his parents came in the afternoon. I was released from hospital two days later and to my surprise, I came home to a house filled with all my friends and family. They had surprised me with a welcome home party, it was really sweet of them because not everyone could make it to see me in hospital.
"How does it feel to be a mother now?" Michael asked me when he walked to me.
"It feels really good, all of my motherly instincts are already kicking in. I dont want anyone to look at her because she is my babygirl." I laughed while looking down at this beautiful soul in my hands.
