Once their sex lives started up again, she was speaking with her Doctor about wanting to try for a baby, on whether or not it would be possible with the high stress level of her job, and the fact having been shot months prior in her side.
The anxiety on hearing and waiting finally a joyous one telling her it would be possible to conceived, once she is taken off the birth control pills and IUD.

He should be used to it by now with all of the strange positions from over the past four years.
Castle was ready, giving her legs a push to the side to enter her once more, hopefully this evening will be magical for them both. And it was! Six weeks later with taking the pregnancy test in the bath room, she was able to know the truth.
When she was able to let Castle know the news, he was elated with the wonderful news, having come home from the P.I. office wrapping up a case with Alexis and Haley.
