I do not own Hetalia okay? I got a decent response to this story and it is a kind of challenge to write it in this format. But anyway, enough of this A/N on with the fic!
October 17th 1914
(From the diary of Alfred F. Jones.)
Well we finally got confirmation. Natalya is pregnant. I had suspected as such when she kept getting sick as I was heading to work. Part of me was thinking that was just her way to try and get me to stay home with her. But finally she went to the doctor yesterday and as best as they could confirm, which isn't saying much, they did say she was pregnant. She's not quite showing yet so the child's expected in the late spring or early summer. I have a lot to do before then, have to order all the stuff they'll need, make a nursery out of one of the spare rooms and oh god. With winter coming up, I am glad we have a new gas heater than a fireplace the older places nearby have. I don't want Nattie having to keep putting wood on the fire as it gets colder in her state.
I just realized I know very little about taking care of a baby. Like Mattie and I were twins so I didn't have a little brother or sister to care for on this. Nattie has been talking with some of the other families in the neighborhood so hopefully we can get a few pointers there. By god, I was not expecting this. I mean I should have because yeah we were trying for it but by god… I didn't know how I would feel when it actually happened. Coming home from work yesterday when she told me was the happiest I had ever seen her. I think even happier than on our wedding day or when I proposed. Kind of shocking as she normally is very reserved with happiness but open on being stern. Well, I got a lot to do today. Got to write Mattie, tell Vanya and Katy about the news, make sure Nattie isn't spending all her time in the house and gets some fresh air, maybe take her to the seashore for some really good air, boy. And this is all before the kid is even here. I may be in a little over my head here…. but people have kids all the time so it can't be that hard, right? Right?
I may have to ask Katy and Vanya if they remember what it was like. I mean he's 5 years older than Nattie and Katy is 5 years older than him. I am sure they remember something. I hope….
So how was that? Good? Bad? Short? Long? (for a journal entry.) Let me know in a review. I'm going to try and get the others entries for this day up today. Just depends on how I am feeling. Anyway remember to read (well you just did) and to review. Ciao for now
