Meredith is now 4 months pregnant and today her and Derek had an appointment for an amino with Addison. However, before their appointment, Derek and her were in surgery clipping an aneurysm before it blow. Meredith had just clapped one side of the aneurysm when she said, "Woah." And had a surprise look on her face. Derek then said, "Something wrong, Dr. Grey," has he was putting the other clap on the other side of the aneurysm.

"The baby just moved," she said while the OR nurse handed her the instrument that cuts and cauterizes.

"What" Derek turns and looked at Meredith, while holding the two claps.

"Dr. Shepard, we can talk about this later, we need to get back to clipping this aneurysm."

"Oh yeah, your right" Derek said as Meredith smiled under her mask and began cutting and cauterizing.

After they finished surgery and were degowning, Derek said, "you actually felt the baby move."

"Yes" Meredith said smiling.

"What did it feel like?"

"Like butterflies" Meredith said while they were walking to the family waiting room area to inform the patient's family, what happened and when they can go see him.

"What?" Derek said, not really understanding what she meant. However before Meredith could answer his question they reach the patient's family.

Derek and Meredith went up to the patient's wife and Derek said, "everything went very well, we were able to remove the aneurysm and he is currently in recovery. Someone from recovery will come and get you when he wakes up, which should be in a couple of hours."

"Thank you. How long will he here in the hospital?" Asked the patient's wife

"Well that depends on him and how he progresses. We just going to have wait and see when he wakes up" said Derek.

"Thank you again, Dr. Shepard"

Has they walked away Meredith asked if he was ready for their appointment. He said, why the appointment isn't until 11."

"Ah Derek, it's 10:30." Meredith said.

He had lost track of time between the surgery and what Meredith had said in surgery, "I guess so"

So they get into the elevator and went to the 3rd floor, to L & D.

Addison came into the exam room. The L & D nurse already had everything set up in the room. "So are you to ready?"

"I guess so," Said Meredith taking a deep breath.

"Good, just try to relax. Now after this is over I want you Derek to take her home (looking at Derek then turned to look at Meredith) because we want the small hole that I'm about to make to close on its own and to do that you need to go home and be on bedrest for the rest of the day."

"That will make you happy won't it" Meredith said to Derek then Addison give her a questioning look. "He want me to take time off and not work so much until the baby is born."

"That might not be a bad idea, however, we will see how the test result come back with and I also in a few weeks want to do a stress test to see how the baby is handling all the stress that you are putting on your baby."

"Okay fine" Meredith reluctantly agreed. She just didn't see that she needed all these tests she was fine. She could see the amino but a stress test.

"Okay lets get started" Addison said, has she started up the ultrasound machine. "There's the baby. Okay now I'm going to get some ammonic fluid." The nurse hands her the needle and syringe. Addison draws up about 15 cc (1/2 an oz.) and then removes the needle and puts a piece of gauze and tape over the puncture site, "Okay now get dress and go home and relax. And if you have any problems call me."

"I will, I promise." Derek went outside the room to talk to Addison, while Meredith got dressed.

"So do you think the idea of her slowing down and now working is a good idea?"

"Well it might be good, however, most women especially in the second trimester feel that they can do anything, and they usually do. But it is eventually up to her and how she feels if she feels that she needs to take time off or slow down then, hopefully, she will."

"Hopefully?"

"Most women do, but you know Meredith."

"She might not."

All Addison did was nod her head, then the exam room door that they had been in opened.

"Okay I'm ready to go." Derek help her put on her coat. They both said bye to Addison and left. They stopped by a local favorite restaurant and ordered to go and went home. They ate when they got home then Derek left to go back to Seattle Grace because he had a spinal rod placement surgery with Dr. Torres at 1600 (4 pm).
