April sat next to an exam table stitching up a young man's arm. She shifted in the chair trying to change position. Her protruding stomach was making it hard to get in the right position. "Edwards?" April called her over. Edwards walked over to her. "Can you finish up Mr. Jameson's stitches?" April got up from the stool and Edwards sat down to finish. April rubbed the top of her belly as she walked.

"You okay, Kepner?" Owen asked as he walked by her.

"Yeah. The baby seems to be having a dance party at the moment."

Owen smiled. "If you're up for it, I could use your help with a trauma coming in."

"Absolutely." April smiled and followed him outside. She put a gown and gloves on while they waited.

"Do you have the nursery all done?" Owen asked while they waited for the ambulance to come.

"Yeah." April smiled. "Jackson finished it last night. We went with yellow. The boarder has farm animals on it." Sirens wailed as the ambulance pulled into the trauma bay. Owen and April went over as the paramedics opened the back door.

"Julie Tambor, 33. Complaining of shortness of breathe and dizziness after a fall. She's on 80% O2 and a saline IV." They wheeled her into a trauma room. The paramedics helped them get her onto a gurney and left. Owen started rattling off tests to run while April started the exam.

"Can you take a deep breath for me?"

"It hurts."

"Okay. We're going to give you something for the pain. Are you allergic to anything?"

"No."

"Julie do you know if you hit your head when you fell?"

"No…I don't think so."

"Okay."

April brought an ultrasound machine over and checked out her abdomen. "There's some free fluid."

"Someone call upstairs and book an OR. You okay to scrub in?" Owen asked.

"Yeah."

"Okay. Let's move people." Owen helped push the gurney out of the room.

Jackson sat at a table in the cafeteria with Meredith and Alex. He was looking over some papers as he drank his coffee. April came waddling over to the table. "Hey, guys." She smiled and sat down between Jackson and Meredith.

"Hey, Babe." Jackson smiled and gave her a kiss.

"Hey, April." Meredith smiled. "How's your last day going?"

"It's good." April rubbed her belly again. "I think I might actually miss it."

You'll be to busy with the baby to be worrying about this place."

Jackson put his hand on her belly. "Definitely going to be a soccer player."

"Yes. The baby likes to use my bladder as a soccer ball."

"And on that note…" Alex said grabbing his tray and getting up.

"Karev?"

"Don't mind him he's just mad that Jo said no to his proposal…again."

"Did you hear about that huge snow storm we're supposed to be getting?" Arizona asked sitting down where Alex had been sitting.

"Yeah. It's supposed to be record breaking." April said shifting in her chair.

"I don't even remember the last time we had a snow storm like that."

Jackson's pager went off. "I have to go." He gave April a kiss. "See you later."

"Love you."

"Love you too."

"You getting excited?" Arizona smiled at April.

"I think Jackson is more excited then me. He keeps on insisting that he'll deliver the baby if my OB doesn't show up."

"Awe that's so sweet."

"What about you? You and Callie must be excited about seeing your baby for the first time."

"We are over the moon."

"I'm so happy for the two of you."

"Thank you, Kepner." April's pager went off.

"I have to get down to the ER." She said trying to push herself up out of the chair.

"Need some help?"

"Yes, please." Arizona helped her up. "Thanks." April smiled and waddled as fast as she could out of the cafeteria.

"What do we have?" April asked as she walked back into the ER.

"Gunshot wound. 10 minutes out." April headed outside to wait. Meredith and Owen were already out there waiting. Meredith helped her tie her gown. It was starting to snow. April rubbed her arms to keep warm. The ambulance pulled in with full lights and sirens. Owen rushed over and opened the door. The man on the stretcher was thrashing around and the paramedic had to keep pushing him down.

"Terrance Jones, 28. Gunshot wound in the abdomen." Meredith and April went over to help wheel the gurney inside. Terrance kept trying to get up the whole time they were wheeling him to the trauma room.

"Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones. You have to stay on the gurney." Owen said trying to hold him down.

"I need to get out of here."

"You have to lay down so we can examine you." Owen pushed him back down. "On the count of three…one…two…three." They switched him over to the hospital gurney and a nurse hooked him up to monitor his vitals. Terrance continued to try to get up. "Someone push 3cc Haldol."

"I got it." April said going over to the medicine cabinet to get it. She grabbed it and went back over to put it in his IV.

"I need to get out of her now!" Terrance shouted. He flung his arms and knocked April hard into the portable x-ray machine.

"Ow!" April winced.

"Kepner are you okay?" Owen asked concerned.

"Yeah…yeah I think so." April rubbed her stomach.

"Someone page OB and get Dr. Kepner to an exam room."

"I'm okay."

"Get checked out just to make sure."

"Come on Dr. Kepner." A nurse said going over to help her. "Did you want me to call Dr. Avery?"

"No. I'm okay."

They went next door to an empty exam room. April sat down on the exam table and waited for the OB to come. Wilson came into the room with the OB.

"Dr. Kepner?" She asked surprised to see her.

"I'm fine. I just got pushed into the portable x-ray by a patient." The OB went over and hooked her up to a fetal monitor.

"Have you had any contractions?"

"No." April said leaning back. The OB pulled the sonosite over to get a look at the baby. Jackson came rushing into the room.

"April!"

"Jackson? I told them not to page you."

"The Chief told me." He went over to her. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah." Jackson took her hand and watched the monitor as the OB did the ultrasound. "Is the baby okay?" They both looked at the monitor.

"The baby looks good. Nothing's wrong with the placenta."

"I told you I was fine." April smiled at him.

"Maybe you should go wait in the lounge. I'll ask the Chief if we can leave early."

"Jackson." April gave him a look.

"Please, Babe. Your due date is 3 weeks away. You need to take it easy."

"Okay."

"Wilson will you go with her to the lounge while I go find Owen?"

Yeah."

"I can make it to the lounge on my own."

"Just go with her." Jackson headed out of the room.

"If you have any contractions or bleeding come back." The OB said taking her off of the monitor.

"I will."
