"How's Life, Rachel?" Chapter 4: 1ST Appointment
Hey guys had this chapter written for a while and had time type it up. So here it is. So happy that glee is coming on tomorrow but upset that Cory is not going to be there. I miss him so much :( *Disclaimer I Do Not Own Glee*
It had been two weeks since Rachel took some pregnancy tests. Rachel and Finn had set up their first doctor's appointment to check to make sure everything was well, and confirm the pregnancy.

Rachel and Finn were waiting in the waiting room of their local OB. Finn was sitting reading, while Rachel was fiddling with her hands.
"Rachel, are you're okay?" Finn asked seeing Rachel looking nervous.
"What if I'm not pregnant? What if something's wrong?" Rachel asked.
"I'm pretty sure you're pregnant. Nothing is going to be wrong, Rach," he said holding her hand.
"You promise?"
"I promise," he said leaning and giving her a kiss on the forehead.
"Rachel Hudson," a nurse said with a chip board in hand.
"Are you ready?" He asked.
"Yeah."

Rachel and Finn were now waiting in a room for the doctor to come in.
About 5 minutes later, an African-American woman walked in. "Hello, you must be Rachel," the doctor said looking at Rachel.
"Yes, and this is my husband Finn," Rachel said shaking the woman's hand.
"Hello, I'm Dr. Harrington. We looked through all your basic tests and confirmed that you are most definitely pregnant. Also everything is looking really good," Dr. Harrington said sitting on a stool in front of them.
"See I told you everything would be fine," Finn said smiling looking at Rachel.
"Will we be able to see out baby yet?" Rachel asked.
"It is too early to do an abdominal ultrasound, but we could definitely do a transvaginal ultrasound," Dr. Harrington replied.
"Ok," Rachel said smiling.
A few minutes later a nurse brought in a machine and Rachel was put in a gown and stirrups.
"Ok this is going to be cold and you will feel some pressure," the doctor said.
Rachel was holding Finn's hand waiting to see their baby. A minute later Dr. Harrington pointed to the screen of the machine, where a image started to develop. "Ok, here is your baby. This dark little white area," Dr. Harrington said while pushing some buttons, then an amazing sound filled the room", and that's your baby's heartbeat."
Tears filled in Rachel and Finn's eyes.
"I will give you guys some time alone, and I will be back with some prints of the ultrasound bolus date for your next appointment," Dr. Harrington said walking out the room to leave the couple alone.
"That's our baby," Rachel said.
"That's our baby," Finn said smiling holding Rachel's hand tight in amazement.

Rachel and Finn were finally home, and decided that they would invite the whole New York gang over to tell them over an early dinner. So Rachel sent them all a text.
It was about 4pm when everyone was finally all at Finn and Rachel's apartment. The friends gathered at the dining room table to eat dinner. Everyone was done eating when Marley decided to be the first to speak up, "Ok Finn and Rachel, why did you guys invite us all over?" she asked.
"Can't we just invite our friends over for a nice dinner," Rachel stated.
"Yeah?"Marley replied.
"Okay, then. I'm going to get dessert," Finn said harassing to the kitchen and brought out a cake. He placed the cake on the table for all the friends could see. On the cake were big letters saying 'we're pregnant' with their first ultrasound photo. All the friends looked at each other, then at Rachel and Finn.
"You're pregnant!" Marley was the first to shout.
"We're pregnant!" Rachel said excitedly.
Everyone was standing and hugging in excitement except Kurt and Santana, who were talking to each other.
"Wait a minute," Finn said looking at Kurt and Santana, "Why are you toe not bouncing with joy?" He asked.
"What do you mean? We're super excited," Kurt said smiling nervously.
"Not, as excited as I thought you would be," Finn said then thought to himself, "You guys knew!"
"What? No, we didn't," Kurt said nervously.
"You are a horrible liver Kurt," Finn said, "Santana?"
"Okay, we knew! Damn, Finn," Santana shouted.
"Rachel!" Finn said looking at Rachel.
"What?" Rachel said.
"They knew. I thought I was the first to know." he said pointing to Kurt and Santana.
"Yeah. I'm sorry! Kurt is the one who bought the pregnancy tests, while Santana waited with me. What do you expect they are my best friends," she said.
"Fine. You got a point," he said giving Rachel a kiss on the cheek.
"Okay. This is such exciting news, guys," Betty said.
"Now all the original girls of Glee Club have kids," Artie said.
"Yeah, you and Betty have a so all the originals have kids" Rachel said smiling.
"I guess you're right. Also Blaine and Kurt too, then have to have kids then all the originals will have kids," Artie replied.
"The funny thing is we've been talking about kids a lot," Blaine said.
"We've even have connected an adoption agency," Kurt said smiling.
"Oh my God, that's amazing guys," Finn said hugging his brother.
"Our glee family is really just keeps getting bigger," Jake said.
Everyone smiled and eat dessert.

Once everyone headed home, the parents-to-be decided to tell the rest of their family and friends. They sent a combined text to all the rest of their friends, and also posted it on Facebook. Once sent, they quickly got multiple replies of congrats. After that, they skyped their parents. They were excited over the moon. They were so happy that they were getting their first grandchild.
Once all the excitement slowed down, the tried couple decides that it was time to head to bed.
/
The couple were lying in bed when Rachel started to talk, "Finn do you think we are going to be good parents?" she asked.
"Of course we are," he replied, "I know for a fact you're going to be an amazing mother."
"Finn, I'm being serious. This is a new life we are going to have responsible for."
"I am too. I have no doubt in my mind about it. Rachel there are two things I'm for sure you were supposed to be in life which is a star and a mother. Guess what now you got on down and the other one to go, which you are going to blow out of the water," Finn said and leaned over, and wrapped his arms around Rachel and pulled her close.
"I love you, Finn," She said looking in his eyes.
"I love you, too," he said while giving Rachel a kiss.
