Shane's point of view

Today is Claire's hospital appointment and we get to see our child for the first time hopefully.

Claire has started suffering with bad morning sickness, and I as I walk upstairs to check on the kids and to get them ready Mollie may is still fast asleep in bed.

As I am watching her sleeping, she reminds me so much of myself, then as I sit on her bed.

I can see that she even has the same lazy smile on her face as me ," come on sleepyhead time to wake ,and get ready because you're going to spend the day with auntie Eve and uncle Michael " I said as she starts to wake up she opens her eyes and smiles at me .

"Morning dada "she said as she sat up and hugged me, "morning sweetheart, are you going to be a good girl for daddy and get up.

So we can get you ready to go and spend some time with Auntie Eve and Uncle Michael," I said as she looked at me and got up and walked over to hers and Alyssa wardrobe.

She then opened it up and pulled out a pink outfit and she looked at me and gave me the cheekiest grin that you have ever seen.

So after getting Mollie may dressed and ready to go , I took her little hand in mine and I walked over to Michael's room but he was not in his bed.

That is when I walked over to mine and Claire's bedroom only to find Claire was not in our room either. That is when I could hear Claire being sick in the bathroom.

Then when I opened the door I found Claire hunched over the toilet and Michael bless him was rubbing her back.

"There is daddy's little man, I have been looking for you, let's get you ready to go to Auntie Eve and Uncle Michael's house "I said.

As I was holding out my other hand for him to take it because Mollie may was still holding my other one.

"Mummy sick, Michael with mummy" he said as Claire flushed the toilet and turned around so that she was now facing everybody.

"Mummy is fine sweetheart, go with daddy and get dressed I will come in a minute " Claire said as she turned to the toilet to be sick again.

Therefore, after getting Michael ready, I decided that I was going to take Mollie may and Michael next-door so that Claire I could have a chat before we go to the hospital.

Then I shouted to Claire that I was going next door but Michael didn't want to leave Claire of cause but he still went so that is when I then took them to join their sister and everybody at the glass house.

Claire was still upstairs when I got back bless her she was where I left her in the bathroom she was not being sick but she had her cheek pressed against the bath.

"Hey baby how are doing" I asked her as I went to kneel beside her and she fell into my arms.

"I am ok, you never get used to morning sickness "she said which then did make her laughed.

"Let's get to the hospital so we can get the show on the road "she said.

Then with that, I helped her up and we made our way downstairs and to the car and then we made our way to the hospital.

Claire's point of view

I have been in the bathroom suffering from morning sickness and the door, which I had left a jar, had opened.

Michael had got out from his bed and said, "Are you ok mommy "he asked me but I could not answer because as I was sick again.

That is when I felt his little hand rubbing my back; he is such a sweet boy.

As I continued to be sick, Shane walks to get Michael to help him get dressed and as usual he did not want to leave but I assured him that I would be ok.

Therefore, after Shane had the kids ready he decided to take them to the glasshouse I could hear Michael being fussy.

I stopped being sick and pressed my cheek against the bath because it was cold and as I was dropping off to sleep.

That is when Shane came back and opened the bathroom door as he knelt down beside me.

I fell into his arms as being sick has made me feel weak and I think Shane notices and tries to talk to me but I just tell him that I am fine and we should just go and get to the hospital .

He looked at me with a frown but he let it go none the less he then helped me up and I got ready and we made our way to the hospital.

It did feel very familiar sitting here waiting Shane is holding my hand, something in me doesn't feel right probably just me being nervous then just as the nurse calls us in to the room.

I can tell my vision is going blurry and then that is when I passed out.

The next thing I know I am laying on a hospital bed, I am on a drip, and Shane is sitting next to me holding my hand.

"What happened as I felt slightly confused, why did I pass out?" I asked Shane as he had a hold of my hand.

"You are dehydrated because of the morning sickness and as you have had nothing to drink, before we came here it caused you to pass out "he said as Dr may walk into the room.

Hello Claire and Shane it is nice to see you again, how are the triplets doing "she asked.

"They are all doing well they are coming up three soon I said".

"That's lovely, I am glad that they are all doing well, now you are pregnant I am correct," she said as she lifted up my top to expose my belly and she squirted some of that jelly stuff on to it.

"Yes I am, we are here today to confirm it and to see how far along I am ".

"Well let's get started with a scan and we will take it from there with that being ok " she asked both Shane and I and we just nodded in agreement.

Then as she bought the probe down to my stomach and Shane got up and came to stand next to me.

"Well Claire it seems that you are once again pregnant and pregnant with triplets again" she said and with that Shane passed out on the floor, which made me suppress a giggle.

Dr may then say to me whilst smiling "I think he is just shocked he will come around shortly".

So Claire how do you feel that you carrying triplets again? She asked me "Ok I am just surprised I said.

"The good news is that they appear to be healthy and you are about 4 weeks pregnant ,I would also like you to take things easy and as you get further into your pregnancy we will be keeping a close eye on you ok" she said.

Then that is when Shane came around and sat back on the chair taking a hold of my hand.

"Sorry he said I was just shocked does this happen often for someone to give birth to 2 sets of triplets" he asked the doctor as he raised his eyebrows in a frown.

"It has happened before Shane, but it is rare, Claire is one of a kind it seems, so back to you Claire," the doctor said as she turned her attention back to me.

"How are you feeling and if you don't mind I would like to examine you as you passed out if that is ok" she asks me once again.

"That is fine, I have been suffering a lot with morning sickness this time round and my stomach feels tight but I am sure that is just normal "I asked doctor may because I was starting to worry.

In addition, I know that Shane is concerned with the morning sickness because I cannot keep anything down.

"Well if you could just lie back and try to relax and I will get started on your exam.

Then we will sit and have a chat with about things, this is properly nothing.

It can be quite normal for you to suffer from bad morning sickness, it can affect people different .The tightness in your stomach is properly were one of the babies are and don't forget you have some scar tissue from the c section from the last time so shall we begin?" she asked me.

I just nodded and then led back while she got on with the exam.

Shane was looking at me with panic in his eyes and held on to my hand as the doctor got on with the exam.

After doctor may had finished with examining me and after I assured her that Shane would look after me at home then with that she let me go home.

Therefore, after we were back at the glasshouse Shane took a hold of my hand and held it tight and as we were walking to the front door.

Alyssa and Mollie both shouted to Shane and me, and then they were running towards us.

Then we made our way to the lounge were Michael was holding my little man who was screaming his head off and crying.

Michael was walking up and down with my little man in his arms; humming a tune in order to try to calm him.

Then Eve came out of the kitchen and smiled when she saw that we were here.

"Michael has been crying and wanting you Claire because he thought you were poorly," Eve said.

Then Michael raised his little head of Mikes shoulder when he heard me speaking.

I walked over placing my little man in my arms gently and then sitting down on the couch, I tried to soothe him.

"Mummy you home I fought that daddy had taken you to the hospital because you were poorly and that you were going to leave me mummy" he said as he cried harder.

"Oh honey mummy is not poorly, I did have to go to the hospital, (then that is when I called Mollie and Alyssa over and eve and Michael) because mummy has got 3 babies growing inside her tummy like when the three of you did" I said as Michael started to calm down.

Then Eve came over to me and hugged me. "Wow I can't believe that you are going to have triplets again this is unreal" she said.

As she then looked over at Michael who was wrapping Shane in a bear hug, this makes me feel sad for them as I will have six children and they would never be able to have any.

"Come on everybody, auntie eve and I are going to take you all out to celebrate mummy and daddy's news "Michael said to the triplets.

They really are the best friends anybody could have they are our true family.

After we came back and got all of the kids to bed Shane then picks me up in his arms and carries me to our room where I did fall asleep in his arms
