Chapter Chpater 337
Placing my hand over my stomach I prayed my baby was okay.
"Babe are you okay?".
I bit my lip hard. What if something was wrong? What if I was losing the baby?
"Hey what's-...". He paused.
"I think there's something wrong". My voice barely a whisper I was trying so hard not to cry.
"I'll call the pack doctor".
"No". I grabbed his hand. "I want to go to the hospital; I need to go to the hospital". I couldn't keep the what ifs out my head and until I knew my baby was okay, I couldn't settle. "Then we'll go to the hospital".
I couldn't understand why he was being so calm. I felt like I was going to be sick, I was filled with worry. I was completely dazed and zoned out that I didn't notice he left the bathroom.
I went back into the bedroom and sat on the edge of the bed. I couldn't help the tears rolling down my cheeks. I wanted to stay positive, but I couldn't help but think the worst. If you are not reading this novel on J Obn1b.com, some sentences are incomplete."I've brought you clean pyjamas. Change into them and then we'll go to the hospital".
"Okay".
We sat in silence the whole way to the hospital. I didn't know what to say to him. As he pulled into the car park my heart started racing. I was terrified. Terrified of what they were going to tell me.
I had no idea what was happening to me. I don't know why I was bleeding. Was it normal? Could it be normal?
Unclipping my seat belt, I took a deep breath before getting out. Jake done all the talking when we got inside. I wasn't sure I would have been able to string two words together.
We didn't wait long until the doctor came to greet us. She took us into a side room and was planning to give me an ultrasound.
"Do you know roughly how many weeks you are?". Dr White asked.
"I'm not sure". I whispered.
Again, my eyes filled with tears.
"And this is your first pregnancy?".
I nodded.
"Okay Leah if you can lie back for me and pull you trousers down so they are under your stomach".
Jake took my hand in his and brought it to his lips. He held it there placing kisses on my knuckles.
"This will be a little cold".
She placed the gel on my stomach and my heart stopped. Please don't say it, please don't say the words I'm dreading to hear.
"Ah". She smiled as she turned the screen around for us to see. "Everything is fine, your baby is growing fine and is perfectly healthy. I would say you're roughly around 10 weeks".
A sob fell from my lips as relief washed over me. Our baby was safe.
"I'm going to book you in for another scan in two weeks' time. In the meantime, I want you to rest. Can you do that?".
I nodded. "What caused the bleeding?".
"It's common to bleed during you first trimester but I'm glad you came in to get checked. Bleeding during pregnancy can sometimes mean you're having a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy". "But my baby is, okay?". I asked.
"Yes". She smiled. "But please rest as much as you can". She passed me a piece of paper towel so I could wipe my stomach. "I'll see you in two week's Leah".
