At seven months pregnant, Rachel feels exhausted all the time.

Her bump has grown huge and she's experiencing painful back ache, as well as the need to go to the toilet all the time, thanks to their daughter constantly pressing against her bladder.

They're over at Carole and Burt's house and Rachel has just returned from baby shopping with Kurt, who'd insisted on checking each and every clothing item Rachel liked, not wanting any niece of his inheriting Finn and Rachel's "truly disgusting fashion sense".

She waddles into the room, her hand resting on her belly, and all attention shifts to her. She hugs Carole and giggles happily when Burt talks to her bump. She glances around the room, seeing no empty seats and sighs a little. Her feet are killing.

Almost as if he can read his wife's mind, Finn leaps off the sofa. "Here, take my seat."

"Thank you, Finn," she says gratefully, pecking his lips, mindful of the fact they're surrounded by family.

"Anything for the mother of my child," he grins in response, placing his hand over hers on her belly. His grin widens as he feels a kick, still ridiculously excited whenever he feels any movement from their child.

I've been crazily busier the last few weeks with applying to university (I got an offer from my favourite, yay!), college work and I've actually had somewhat of a social life lately (what?!). Because of that, I just haven't found the time to upload... But now here I am! Since it took me so long to update, I'm going to post an extra two chapters for you guys. :)
