Welcoming the Baby
"Are you nervous?" Nick asked Jackie.
It was finally the morning the family had been waiting so anxiously for, it was the morning of Jackie's C-section.
"Yes, but I'm also really excited." Jackie answered with a smile.
"Me too, and everything will be just fine." He told her as he grabbed her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze.
They got themselves ready and then Nick carried the hospital bag and all of the kids' things out to the car while Jackie went in to wake all the kids.
The poor kiddos were like zombies thanks to the extremely early hour but once Jackie told them what was about to happen they became super excited and happy.
Once everything including the kids were loaded into the car Nick drove the family over to his in laws house where the kids would be staying for the next few days while Nick, Jackie, and the baby would be in the hospital.
They got the kids dropped off and then went to the hospital.
"Hi Jackie, are you ready?" Dr. Wilson asked once they had gotten checked in.
"Yes." She replied with a somewhat nervous smile.
Nick sensed she was scared so he once again grabbed her hand.
She squeezed it as she offered him a grateful smile.
"Ok, let's first go back and do one last ultrasound, just to make sure your little one is still being stubborn." The doctor replied as she led the couple back to one of the exam rooms.
Once Jackie was on the table the doctor started the ultrasound.
Dr. Wilson stared at the screen and then blinked a couple of times and then looked at it again.
"Well, I'll be darned, Ryan isn't going to be a little stinker after all, he turned around again, he is now head down."
"Really? You mean I don't need a C-section?" Jackie asked sounding shocked.
"That's right, you can go home and let labor begin on it's own." Dr. Wilson told the couple.
"That's great, except our children are going to be so mad at us when we come home and there is no baby." Jackie told her doctor with a laugh.
Dr. Wilson chuckled.
"I'll see you guys when Ryan decides he wants to meet us." She told the happy, yet surprised couple.
"Ok, thank you." The couple said before they left.
"How do you feel?" Nick asked Jackie once they were back in the car.
"I'm happy I don't have to have a C-section but I was really looking forward to meeting the baby." She told him.
He smiled at her.
"And I wasn't kidding when I told Dr. Wilson that the kids were going to be mad, I can hear them now." Jackie told him.
Nick laughed, he also knew that when they got to his in laws house to pick up the kids and they didn't have a baby with them he and Jackie were going to get an earful from 5 very mad and disappointed kids.
Nick and Jackie didn't know it then but the family wouldn't have to wait long to meet baby Ryan after all…
