Captain Kathryn Janeway awoke feeling like she had just eaten a bowl of raw Gagh. Her stomach felt like it would rebel if she so much as moved an inch. She lay on her bed for at least 5 minutes before she even dared to go to the bathroom. She was lucky enough to make it there before she lost what little was left of her midnight snack from the night before.

After throwing up for over 30 minutes, she managed to get dressed and was on her way to sick bay. She would have called for help sooner, but she really hadn't had a free moment to talk. Every time the captain opened her mouth, she got sick again. By the time she reached sick bay, her head was spinning and she was about ready to be sick again.

She quickly activated the Doctor, who was just in time to see her leaning over a basin that had been on one of the shelves.

"Captain!" cried the Doctor, "Please, sit down on the biobed."

She did.

"Now, what seems to be the problem?" Kathryn Janeway glared. "Besides the obvious symptom, of course," he hastily revised.

"I woke up feeling incredibly nauseas," she told him, rather weakly. "I vomited at least 10 times before I managed to get myself here and on the way I felt very dizzy. Come to think of it, I haven't realy felt right since the incident on New Earth."

The Doctor, who had started scanning while she was talking, smiled slightly before asking, "Captain, when was the last time you had a menstrual cycle?"

"Well, I-I really don't know," she responded. "I've been busy." She paused then jerked her head towards the EMH. "Why?"

"Well, Captain, you seem to be pregnant," was the response from the hologram. "Congratulations."
