Chapter 36

A week had gone by and Hunter finally got everything set up and paid for the wedding. Brie and Seth had decided to go ahead and have the wedding in May. Sure it was only two months away but both Seth and Brie decided to get married before the baby was born and before she started to really show. Also just like her mom had told her to do she scheduled an appointment with her OBGYN and today was the big day.

"You ready?" Seth asked as he pulled into an empty spot.

Brie released a heavy breath that she had been holding since they pulled into the parking lot. "Yeah." She smiled nervously.

"It's going to be fine." He told her wrapping an arm around her shoulder. He pulled her into him and kissed her forehead.

Brie nodded as they both slowly pulled away and exited the car. They met at the trunk of the car and took each other's hand, intertwining their fingers as they walked up to the doctor's office. Once at the door Seth released Brie's hand and opened the door for her. Brie walked inside and signed in.

"Thank-you Brie." The receptionist smiled as she grabbed the clipboard and signed her into the computer. "You can go ahead and have a seat you'll be called back in a few minutes."

"Thank-you." Brie smiled as she and Seth took a seat in the waiting room.

"So what do you think is going to happen today?" Seth asked as he wrapped an arm around Brie's shoulder and pulled her into his chest.

"I dunno." She replied unsure of what was going to happen today. "I've only come for my yearly exam. I'm kind of nervous though."

Seth placed a soft kiss on the top of her head. "Don't worry too much besides I'm going to be right there next to you."

Brie smiled as she looked up Seth who returned the smile and placed a kiss on her lips. It wasn't long after that, that Brie was called to the back. She and Seth were met half way by a nurse. "Good afternoon Brie." She smiled. "I'm going got need a sample before we begin." She told her. Brie nodded as she stepped into the bathroom. "She'll be out in a few." She smiled. "You can follow me." The nurse said looking at Seth.

She led Seth to an empty room. Seth sat down as the nurse pulled every thing out that the doctor was going to need for Brie's appointment. He watched and looked at all the equipment curiously before speaking up. "What exactly is going to happen today?" He asked turning his attention from the equipment to the nurse.

"When Dr. Anderson gets in here all she is going to do is a pelvic exam and listen to the baby's heartbeat. We're also going to draw some blood for testing and after that she'll be sent to ultrasound and you'll see the baby for the first time, and get to take some pictures home with you. By the time you leave today you'll know exactly how far along Brie is and expected delivery date."

Seth smiled. He was excited that he'd actually get to see his child for the first time. He was suddenly filled with a feeling that he had never felt before. Was it love for his unborn child? Was his fatherly instincts kicking in already? Whatever the feeling was he loved it and wouldn't trade it for anything. A couple minutes later Brie walked into the room.

"Before you get undressed lets go and get your weight." The nurse smiled as she led Brie to the scale. She jotted down Brie's weight and blood pressure before taking her back to the room. "Okay you're going to need to take your clothes off and wrap the paper robe around you." She said laying the robe down on the bed. "Dr. Anderson is going to do a pelvic exam. She'll be in, in a few minutes."

Brie nodded as the nurse walked out and closed the door behind her. By the time the doctor walked in Brie was already undressed and in the bed. "Good afternoon Brie." The doctor greeted as she pulled out the bed extension and stirrups. "So are you excited about being able to see your little peanut today?" She asked as she began to do the exam.

"I am." Brie replied.

"So?" She questioned as she finished the exam and looked over at Seth. "Are you the lucky man?"

Seth smiled. "I am."

"How do you feel daddy?" She asked.

Seth shrugged, "I'm still in awe of all of it. I still can't believe this is really happening." He told her. "Don't get me wrong." He quickly spoke. "I'm excited and I couldn't be any happier that I'm sharing this incredibly step in my life with the most beautiful girl in the world." He admitted looking over at Brie with an adorning smile. "I wouldn't have it any other way." Brie smiled at her fiance's comment.

"That was very sweet." The doctor admitted as the she placed a heated gel on Brie's tummy and pulled out a doppler from her coat pocket. "I always love to see true young love." She smiled. "You two ready to hear your baby's heartbeat?" She asked. Brie and Seth looked at one another and nodded. "Okay here we go." She said placing the doppler on the gel and slowly moved it around her patient's tummy until she found a heartbeat. "And there it is?" She said moving the doppler around in that general area. Brie and Seth shared another smile. "The peanut sounds strong." She smiled. "Congratulations to you both." She said as she removed the doppler and wiped the gel from Brie's tummy. "My nurse will be back to draw some blood." She said as she walked out.

"Did you here how strong our baby's heartbeat was?" She asked looking over at Seth who smiled.

"I did." He nodded as he pushed himself up off the chair and walked over to his fiancé and took her hand into his.

"Strong just like you." She smiled.

"You're strong too." He told her as he leaned over and kissed her lips. "I love you." He told her as he bent over to give her another peck on the lips as the nurse walked inside.

"I love you too." She smiled as he released her hand and walked over to the opposite side of the bed and took her other hand as the nurse began to draw blood. Once she finished she stood up from the stool and looked over at Brie.

"Okay go ahead and get dressed." She said opening the door. "I'll be back in a few to come and get you both and lead you to ultrasound."

"Okay." Brie nodded. "Thank-you."

Just as the nurse said she returned a few minutes later. "Ready?" She asked. Seth and Brie shared another glance and a smile.

"Yeah we are." Brie replied as she took Seth's hand in her's, lacing their fingers together. The nurse nodded and led them into a second room.

"Alright, Cheryl your next patient is ready." The nurse spoke to the lady who was setting up her equipment.

"Great." She smiled. "Send her in."

"She's ready for you." The nurse said as she stepped aside allowing Brie and Seth to walk inside.

"Hi guys!" She greeted as the nurse shut the door. "I'm going to need you to take your bottoms off." She said. "I know you're probably tired of hearing that, but I promise this won't take long." She said.

Brie nodded and slid her pants off and handed them over to Seth before getting up on the bed. The ultrasound tech fired up the equipment and then flipped the lights out. She pulled out the wand and began the ultrasound. It wasn't long after that, that Brie and Seth saw the peanut shaped image on the screen with four little nubs that were wiggling on the sides and bottom of the peanut.

"Looks like peanut is moving." She said as she took screen shots and printed them out. "By the baby's measurements your about nine weeks almost 10. Estimated due date is December 15th." She said. "Congratulations guys." She said as she began to clean the equipment and handed the pictures over to Brie. "I'll see you both at 20 weeks, and by then we'll know if peanut is a girl or boy."

"Thank-you." Brie smiled as she put her pants back on. The ultrasound tech smiled and let Brie and Seth out the door.

"Congratulations babe." Seth smiled as they stepped outside. "To us. To our family of now three." He said wrapping his arm around her waist as he pulled her into kiss.
