Guys this is the longest chapter I have written so far. I could have kept going but I decided against it. There is a time jump in this chapter :)
All mistakes are mine.
APOV
Nothing fits me anymore! I am so huge and I want them out. I am so uncomfortable and I miss sleeping through out the night. The constant bathroom trips in the middle of the night and the backaches are the worst. I don't know if I can do this again. I am definitely talking to Christian about this. I've been pregnant three times and I've had enough.
I am now 35 weeks and I am here in the room waiting on Dr. Greene. I feel like I am nearing the end of this pregnancy. I have constantly felt pressure in the last couple days. Christian and I have a few questions to ask her after she examines me.
Dr. Greene asks, "How are you feeling Ana?
"I am exhausted and honestly I feel like I am ready have them," I replied.
"I understand Ana and chances are you'll deliver early," she says to me.
Christian immediately steps in, "Is it safe for them to arrive so early, I mean she still has 5 weeks left."
"Mr. Grey, as I have mentioned before multiple pregnancies, in Ana's case twins, are usually born around 36 weeks. As her pregnancy progresses, her uterus will swell and it will trigger contractions. Besides we have been monitoring her closely. So far, Ana and the babies are perfectly healthy. Unless a complication comes along the way, there is no need to worry."
With the answer Dr. Greene gave him he seemed to be okay with it, for now.
"How will my labor be? What should I be expecting this time around?" I ask her.
"Well like I said, everything looks good and so long as the babies aren't in any breeching position, you may have a vaginal birth. Let's take this day by day. I don't need you to see me until next week, but if for any reason you feel off and want to take precautions, you have my number, call me and I will come by your house and check on you."
"That sounds like a great idea, thank you Dr. Greene," Christian says to her.
CPOV
My poor wife, I know she wants to have the twins already. Her mood has been let's say unpleasant. Totally understandable. I wish I can make her feel better but of course she tells me its my fault and that she is never letting me touch her again. Not happening Mrs. Grey!
"Christian, we need to talk," Ana says.
I look up at her from behind my desk and I see her standing by the door with her hands on her hips. Uh oh, that look she has is not a good one.
"Yes baby?"
"I think its time we have a serious talk about what we plan to do going forward after the girls are born," Ana says.
"What do you mean?" I asked her.
"Basically, YOU ARE GETTING THE SNIP!" she shouts.
My eyes go wide and my mouth is wide open. What did she just say? No, definitely not going to happen. That is my manhood we are talking about. How could she even suggest that? I see her heading towards the door to leave, I stand up and go to her.
"Ana, I don't want to get a vasectomy done and I refuse to do it," I say firmly.
"Then we will never have sex again," she says. Is she insane? Shit Grey, don't say that out loud. The last thing I want is to upset her but if she thinks we will never had sex again she has another thing coming. Just wait until the six week dry spell is over, I will be fucking and making love to her. Without a doubt in my mind.
What is going on here? Have I entered the Twilight Zone? Is she having another one of her mood swings. I know she is frustrated and all but why would she even think I would be okay with getting my balls snipped. That is every mans nightmare. Well for me it is. Even before Ana I never even considered getting the procedure done. I made sure all of the subs I contracted never missed their shots, I was always on top of it and if something felt wrong I would use a condom.
No absolutely not. I won't do it. I cross my arms and I ask her, "Why are you even bring this up?"
"WHY? You are asking me why? How about this for a reason, I don't want to get pregnant again Christian!"
She doesn't want any more babies with me?
"You don't want to have any more if my children?" I say sadly.
"Christian, I love having your children, but I just think four is enough," she sighs.
"Why don't you just get the shot after the twins are born like you did with Teddy and Phoebe?" I say try to convince her because I really don't want to get this procedure done.
"You know that my birth control method is not always effective," she says.
"So who is to say a vasectomy will be?" I tell her raising my eyebrow at her.
"Something needs to be done and I think its only fair that you do the procedure since I have given birth two times and going for a third. I'm done," she said and she heads for the door. She turns around and says to me, "make an appointment," and she is gone.
"I'm fucked," I said to myself.
APOV
Christmas came and went and I am still pregnant. Everything is ready for the girls to arrive. Their nursery is beautiful, the room is set up with the two cribs next to each. They have canopies hanging on the wall draping over the cribs. There is also a a beautiful rocking chair in between the cribs. The color of the walls are ivory. Mia wanted them to be pink but I told her absolutely not. She went overboard with Phoebe's room and it pretty much looked like Pepto Bismol threw up in her room. Definitely not have a repeat of that fiasco.
We were going to go to the New Year's Party tomorrow at Grey Manor but we decided against it since we are on baby watch. I told Grace that she didn't have to change her plans because of me. I was by no means be upset if they continued on with the party. The celebration must go on. Christian is in his study and I am upstairs in the nursery room.
I'm doing some finishing touches on the nursery and once I am finished I head to our bedroom. The girls are playing soccer with my bladder, so I head to the bathroom and that's when I feel it. I look down and I am stepping on water. I grab my stomach and all I can do is call for help. I am upstairs in my room alone. I just Gail running towards me.
"Ana, are you okay?" she says looking worried.
"Gail the girls are coming, my water just broke. Please let Christian know they are coming. Also, let Taylor and Sawyer know we need to head to the hospital," I say as best as I can as a contraction hits. Gail tells me that Christian and Taylor weren't in the house.
"OH GOD!" I yell. "Where is Christian?"
Gail then reminds me, "Ana, Mr. Grey said that he had to go to Grey House real fast because he left an important file about a deal he was working on. He gave everyone a long holiday weekend since New Year's Eve landed on a Friday." Shit, me and this damn baby brain. Now I remember him telling me he was leaving.
I change into a maxi dress and she helps me down the stairs. We get into the SUV and Sawyer places my hospital bag in the trunk. Gail stayed behind with the children. She told me she would notify everyone.
As the nurses assess me and are finished hooking me up to the fetal monitors, I can hear my husband yelling at the nurses asking where I am. I shake my head because no matter what he will never change his ways of speaking to people. Always so domineering.
"ANA!" he comes barreling into my room.
"I am okay, I am 6 cm dilated. We are now just playing the waiting game and according to the doctor I was already in labor, I just thought they were Braxton Hicks I was experiencing," I tell him with a smile on my face.
"Ana why didn't you tell me earlier before I left that you were having pains?" he looks at me perturbed. "Okay baby, I am here now and ready to do whatever you need. I am ready to meet our new princesses," Christian says. So am I.
A few hours or so later, who knows since I am no longer in any pain thanks to the epidural Dr. Greene gave me. She comes in and checks me and she turns and tells the nurses to get everything ready. I look at Christian and he is holding my hand tight. As another contraction hits, I tell Dr. Greene that I feel like I need to push.
"Alright Ana, it looks like these two little ones are ready to come out. You are fully dilated," she says to me, "when the next contraction comes I want you to starting pushing okay?"
I simply nod, I tuck my chin, knees back, take a deep breath and push all the while Christian is holding my hand and Dr. Greene is counting to 10. In my head I am counting way faster than she is.
"That's good Ana, you are doing great," she says, "take a deep breath and when the another one hits do it again."
I do it a couple more times and I hear the first cry. I relax a bit and Christian goes to cut her cord. The nurse then puts her on my chest for a second to say hello. She is beautiful. Her nurse takes her to get cleaned up and have her checked out. "Apgar score is 9, " is all I hear when I feel another contraction and I am ready to go again. Dr. Greene told us that it can take up to 30 minutes before the second baby would arrive but it seems like she is ready, it's only been 10 minutes.
"Okay Ana, when you're ready push," Dr. Greene tells me.
I do the same thing all over again and I push. By the third push our other baby girl is born. I hear her cry and once again Christian cuts the cord. She is placed on my chest and I take a look at her. She looks just like her sister. Her nurse comes back and takes her. She checks my daughter, "Apgar score is also 9," she said.
Dr. Greene then delivers my after birth and I get cleaned up.
Moments later I see Christian come with our daughters wrapped in pink blankets. He looks so happy. He kisses their little heads and hands them over to me. I look at them and I'm in love. He says that everyone is outside waiting. I tell him to give me a moment with the girls and then they can come inside to meet them.
The door opens and Teddy and Phoebe are the first to walk through. They don't know what to do. Christian sits Phoebe on the foot of the bed and Teddy is standing next to him. I look to Christian and I nod.
"Everyone, we would all like you to meet..."
A/N: Oops.. a cliffy. I have two names in mind. Next chapter will be the reveal. See you next time.
