Regina is now 20 weeks which meant today they could find out the gender. They were hoping they could find out the gender since last time the baby was being stubborn.
Robin was overjoyed to find out if the baby was a boy or a girl. He didn't care what mattered was that the baby and Regina were healthy. Robin was so anxious to go to the appointment he set his alarm hours early . The hold up was Regina.
Regina was still sleeping in bed. As anxious as Robin was to go he couldn't help but smile at Regina. She looked so peaceful she looked radiant. She was carrying his child and she was glowing.
Regina stirs in her sleep and wakes up to see Robin sitting on the edge of the bed smiling at her.
" What time is it ?"
" Its about 9:30"
" Robin why on earth didn't you wake me our appointment is at 11"
" You just looked so adorable "
" I need to get ready we're going to be late."
" Considering our midwife is your sister I don't think she'll mind"
" Robin I don't like being late"
" We wont be but first you need to eat breakfast."
" Robin!"
" Now no arguing with me . You get dressed I'll make breakfast" Robin kisses her lips and walks downstairs.
Regina watched as Robin head downstairs. She hated being late but she couldn't stay mad at him . He was so sweet . Not only was he the perfect husband but she knew he would be the perfect father .
Downstairs Robin is by the stove making pancakes. he wanted to pamper his wife and show her how much he cared . Regina made her way downstairs to Robin. She walked into the kitchen and smiles at him making breakfast for her.
" I hope you didn't go to much trouble."
" Nothing is to much for Milady"
Regina smiles she walks over to the table and sits down. Robin serves her pancakes and puts some on his plate. They smile at each other as they eat.
" Are you excited for your appointment?" Robin asks.
" Not nearly as excited as you are " Regina laughs.
" I cant help it I want to know what our child is . Aren't you a little bit excited?"
" I am This just makes it all real knowing if it is a boy or a girl."
Robin can sense Regina is worried. Its understandable after everything that they have been through. Robin gets up from his seat and kneels in front of Regina holding her hands.
" I promise you everything will be ok. There's nothing to be afraid of."
" I know there's not"
" I bet your parents are excited to find out what there grandchild will be."
Regina laughs " You should have heard my mother. She was furious she had to go to that dinner meeting but not as mad as when she learned she had to wait another couple weeks to find out what the gender is."
" What do you think they want?"
" My mother and daddy say it doesn't matter but I know my father would like a grandson."
" What do you want?"
" A healthy baby "
" As do I " Robin says kissing Regina
Regina heard what Robin said but knows he would love a little boy. This will probably be her only chance to have her child. she though Robin deserved a son.
Regina went to get her purse and coat when Robin stopped her.
" Now wait just a minute " Robin kneels down and puts his hands on her bump."
" Robin we are already late."
" Shhh now little one me and mommy are hoping to find out if your a boy or a girl . Now were hoping you'll let us see we want to start planning your room. We love you very much and cant wait to see you." Robin says kissing her bump and moving his hands around.
" Are you done with your conversation?" Regina smiles
Robin kisses Regina and they head to there appointment.
At the hospital Regina sits on the exam table . Zelena walks in with a needle to draw blood.
" Alright Regina today we're going to draw some blood today before we see the baby."
Regina rolls up her sleeve and closes her eyes not being a fan of needles. She's not the only one Robin nearly turns white as a ghost when he sees the needle. Zelena gets the blood and buts a band aide on Regina's arm. Zelena then measures Regina's bump taking notes.
" Alright are we ready for the moment of truth?"
" Yes!" They both say in union .
" Are you going to mums after?"
" If I didn't she would have my head" Regina shows Zelena her phone. " She's already sent me 10 messages today."
Zelena laughs at her mothers impatience.
" We'll lets find out what the little munchkin is shall we?"
Regina lifts her shirt and Zelena squirts the gel around. She moves the wand around and the room is flooded with the sound of the baby's heartbeat."
" The baby looks great and healthy. " Zelena moves the wand around more to get a better look. She smiles once she sees the gender. " Alright I got a clear picture you guys ready to find out ?'
" More than ready " Robin says.
" Its a boy" Zelena says with a smile
" A boy we're having a boy!" Regina says with a smile looking at Robin.
" We're going to have a son?" Robin says tears forming in his eyes.
" Congratulations he looks perfect. I'll print out some pictures for you both ." Zelena hands Regina a towel to wipe the gel off. " I'll be right back.
" I cant believe we're going to have a son. This is so exciting"
" It is isn't it."
Regina has a big weight lifted off her shoulders. She was so afraid she wouldn't be able to give Robin a son. Robin didn't care he just wanted a healthy baby.
Zelena comes back with the pictures and hands them to Regina and Robin.
" One thing before you go Regina there was one thing I didn't like. Your smaller than I would like you to be at 20 weeks . I want you to gain some more weight."
Gaining more weight ? Just how much bigger does she expect her to get? Will Robin still love her even though she has to gain weight ? Would Robin would have been happy if the baby had been a girl?
Regina just nods " Thank you"
The car ride to The Mills mansion was quiet Regina had a lot on her mind. Robin can tell as they pulled up to the house.
" You've been quiet since the appointment . Is everything ok?"
" Everything is fine"
Robin knows Regina and can tell she's lying . He puts his hand on top of hers.
" I'm really happy we're having a boy but I want you to know that if we were having a girl I would be just as happy ."
Unbelievable its like he could read her mind.
" Really?"
" Of course I think it would have been sweet having a little you running around the house."
" But instead we'll have a little you. I can picture you taking him camping." Regina laughs.
" I think he'll look like you. Your smile and your laugh."
" I think He will have your eyes with will be hard when he gets in trouble."
" Are you saying our son will be a trouble maker?"
" I'm saying he's his fathers son" Regina laughs
Robin laughs looking at Regina.
" I don't think we should keep my parents waiting any longer."
They get out of the car and walk to the mansion where Cora opens the door before they can knock.
" Where on earth have you both been?"
" We'll we have been at a appointment mother."
" We'll come in already don't just stand there . How did everything go?"
" it went great the baby and I are healthy"
" That's wonderful " Henry says
They all walk into the living room and sit down. Before they sit down Regina hands her mother the pictures.
" These are the pictures we got . The one at the end reveals the gender." Regina explains.
Cora puts her glasses on to see the pictures. She hands Henry a few to look at.
" Look at these O it looks so darling." Cora comments looking through the pictures.
Henry looks at the pictures. He has the one that reveals the gender. He looks at the picture of the baby reading the words I'm a boy.
" It's a boy?" Henry says.
Cora than snaps the picture from Henry looking at it.
" It is its a boy! We have a grandson!" Cora says excitingly.
" This is marvelous . I'll get the champagne " Henry says beaming with pride.
" Congratulations sweetheart !" Cora says getting up to hug Regina.
Her parents waited a long time for a grandchild. It made her so happy to see how excited her parents were.
Later that night after a fun filled evening at the Mills mansion Regina is at home in her and Robin's room sleeping. She wakes up to find Robin not there. She wakes up to find Robin not there . She walks downstairs to find the garage light on. She walks outside and sees Robin working in the garage.
" Robin its late aren't you coming to bed?"
" I am I'm sorry I woke you "
" You didn't why are you out here?"
" We'll I just thought I would make our child a crib. Its his first bed . Besides the one he's already in ." Robin says putting his hand on her bump.'
Regina looks at Robin. She thought it was the absolute sweetest thing . It made her heart soar"
" How did I ever get so lucky to be married to you"
Just then Regina feels movement that takes her by surprise.
' O Robin I think the baby is kicking."
" He is ?" Robin moves his hand around hoping to get the baby to kick again. Regina puts her hand on top of Robin's moving it to where the spot the baby kicks.
" There feel that?"
" He really is kicking."
They both just stood there for awhile enjoying the movements of there baby kick for the first time. This was happiness.
/ There you have it its a boy!
