Previously on JAG:

     "How long has this been going on now Mac?" "Off and on for maybe three weeks now." Harriet figured that what she was thinking was correct. "Mac," she began slowly, "Is there a chance that you might be pregnant?"

     Slowly Mac reached a shaking hand toward the first test. Slowly she picked it up and brought it up so as to better see it and turned it over. Once turned over a bright blue plus sign was apparent in the small box. Mac's eyes went wide and she reached for the second test turning it over to find once again a bright blue plus sign.

     "Sarah," Harm called up the stairs a few minutes later, "Pizza's here." Mac finished folding a few tops before closing the drawer and making her way downstairs. She was going to tell him tonight…

Saturday August 14th

ZULU 2030

     Harm was sitting outside on the porch watching the sky change from an orange yellow to purple blue as the sun went down and dusk set in. The front door was wide open with the swinging screen door closed keeping the bugs out. Mac opened the door and stepped out onto the front porch. Harm looked up at her and smiled as he stretched an arm out for her to join him. Mac sat down and curled up next to him. He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her closer to him.

     After a few minutes of silence, Mac knew that she had to tell him. "Harm," she said softly. "Yah, sweetie," he said. She sat up a little and turned to face him. "So, do you have any ideas on how to decorate the extra rooms," Mac asked. "Well," Harm started, "We could use one as storage, and one as an upstairs office, and I suppose guest rooms for the others." "Well, what if we decorated one differently and umm, soon." She was starting to get nervous. 'What if Harm didn't want a baby right away, what if he got upset. Mac stop it,' she scolded herself.

     "What do you mean?" Harm asked. Mac bit her lip, "Harm, I'm pregnant." Harm looked at her with a cute shocked expression on his face with his mouth slightly open. "Yu-You-You're pregnant?" She nodded her head, "I'm pregnant." "We're going to have a baby?" Harm said more distinguishable then before and his face brightening. "We're going to have a baby," Mac answered him once more. "I'm going to be a daddy?" He said jumping up, his entire face lit into a big grin. Mac nodded her face brightening seeing that Harm was happy.

     Mac stood up next to Harm, "Are you happy? I know we hadn't discussed whether or not we wanted a baby right away and…" She was cut off by Harm's finger on her lips, "Baby, I am more than happy that you and I are going to have a baby together. And you know that I wanted a baby as much as you did, and I'm so completely ecstatic that we're going to be parents soon." Mac let out a small breath and smiled. "Thank you," Harm whispered to her as his lips descended onto hers. When they broke apart, "For what?" Mac asked smiling. Harm leaned his forehead against hers, "For giving me..us a baby." "Hey, you helped, ya know." They both laughed softly. And then the concerned father to be kicked into gear…

     "Should you be on your feet? Is it to warm out here? Shouldn't you be resting? Can I get you anything?" Mac looked at him and laughed. "Harm, stop, stop," she said since he was still babbling on about her eating habits, and work, etc. "I feel perfectly fine, so stop worrying so much. I'll call the OB tomorrow and get an appointment for me to come in." Harm smiled, "We're going to have a baby!" And he picked her up and swung her around, before apologizing profusely that he shouldn't have done that. Mac just rolled her eyes and walked inside.

     She began walking up the stairs and then turned half way up to find Harm still standing there to look like he was berating himself for what he did. "Harm!" She called over to him raising her voice for the third time. He finally looked over at her, "Huh, what?" She rolled her eyes at him, "Are you coming or what flyboy?" She gives him a seductive smile and crooks her finger over her shoulder at him as she continues up the stairs. His eyes grow wide and he hightails it into the house and up the stairs.

     Halfway, up the stairs he begins to transform back into 'Worrywort Rabb'. "Should you be going up and down the stairs? I mean is that safe? And should we be…ya you know is that safe for the baby and for you? Will it hurt you or the baby?" Next thing he knows Mac's shirt flew out of their bedroom and hit him smack in the face and dropped into his outstretched hand. "Ya know if I didn't know any better, I'd think you were the pregnant one, Hormone!" She yelled from their bedroom.

     That and the shirt full in the face shut Harm up form his babbling. And he rushed the rest of the way up the stairs, "Ya know that wasn't very nice marine." The bedroom door closed as giggling ensued from behind, but the giggling didn't last too long.

     The following week at work they decided to keep quiet on the pregnancy until the appointment on Thursday afternoon. The previous day Harm and Mac had asked permission to take the afternoon off, the Admiral agreed although he was getting his suspicions. He had seen Mac running to the ladies room on several accounts the past few weeks and that her eating habits had increased although she ate a lot before too.

Thursday July 19th

Gynecologist's Office

ZULU 1430

     Harm and Mac sat in the waiting room waiting to be called by the doctor. "Sarah Rabb?" A dark haired woman called to them. She showed them to a room, "Jut put this gown on and Dr. Sparrow will be in with you in a few minutes. And she'll bright the results to your blood test." "Thank you," Mac said to the nurse. She changed into the gown and hopped up onto the examining table. Harm sat next to her on a stool holding her hand. He kissed her forehead as the door opened and a pretty woman with red curly hair who looked to be in her early forties walked in.

     "Hello, Sarah." "Hey, Marie. Marie this is my husband, Commander Harmon Rabb Jr. Harm this is Commander Marie Sparrow." Harm and commander Sparrow shook hands. "Well, Sarah, you are definetly pregnant." Harm and Mac both grinned. "How far along am I?" Mac asked. (A/N: I haven't been pregnant so I'm not exactly sure what goes on and when you find stuff out, so the information here is from asking people that I know who have kids and reading stuff off the internet. So forgive me if it's incorrect.) "You are close to being three months along, Sarah." Harm and Mac both looked at each other and smiled as they both did the math in their head. They realized that they're baby was conceived on the night of their wedding. "So that being said you should deliver sometime in early to the middle of March."

     "Now, I'm just going to do a quick check-up to make sure nothing is wrong and then we'll get an ultrasound done for you." After the check-up in which Harm had turned his head and looked at absolutely anything but at the table and Mac to not look, an ultrasound machine was brought into the room. Mac lay back on the exam table and Harm stood next to her holding her hand. "Now, Sarah, the gel I'm putting on your stomach is quite cold." She spread the blue geo on her stomach and Mac jumped a slight bit. "What?" Harm asked making sure that she was okay. "It is cold," Mac giggled as the Commander put the wand on her stomach and began moving it around.

     A sound came into the room other than the breathing of the anxious mother and father to be. "Is that the…" Harm asked in awe at hearing the sound. "Yes, Commander, that's the heartbeat." Harm and Mac both smiled they didn't even notice that there was a slight change to the heartbeat that made Dr. Sparrow listen a little closer. Suddenly a picture flickered onto the screen, "And there is your baby." Harm and Mac looked at the screen with awe and a tear slipped down Mac's cheek at seeing her baby for the first time. Harm's eyes even misted over and he squeezed Mac's hand and kissed her cheek.

     Dr. Sparrow started moving the wand around a little more and was looking closer the screen and listening intently. "Oh my," she said softly. "What?! Is there something wrong with our baby?!" Mac asked panicking slightly. Harm looked up at the doctor alarmed. Dr. Sparrow then smiled as her suspicions were then confirmed. "No, nothing's wrong. Nothing's wrong at all. You're babies are in perfect health." Harm and Mac breathed a sigh of relief. When it suddenly hit them.

     "Wait, babies?" Mac said wanting to know if she had heard correctly. "Wait, you mean there's two in there?" Harm said his eyes growing wide as he looked down at Mac's stomach and he swallowed a big gulp of oxygen. "Yes, Commander. Congratulations, you're having twins!" Harm and Mac looked at each other with shocked looks on their faces and they turned back to the doctor. "Two as in two separate healthy babies?" Mac said. Harm looked at Mac, "You told me that we were having 'a' baby, I thought that meant one!" Mac glared at him.

     Marie nodded smiling, this often happened when parents found out that they were having twins. "Yes, you're having two. Which means two cribs, double the diapers, double the clothes, double the toys, double the love." "Yah, and double the money," Harm muttered. Mac punched Harm in the shoulder. "Oww!" And he saw the look on Mac's face, "Sorry sweetie." Marie chuckled and turned back to the monitor. She began moving the wand around again. "Now, see here is the head of baby A, and see behind baby A's backside, you see the head of baby B."

     "Baby A, and baby B?" Mac questioned. Marie nodded, "We give the babies nicknames like that, and we start from the beginning of the alphabet on the dominate twin or the first twin and then continue on in the alphabet from there." Harm and Mac exchanged a look afterward still-in awe that they were to be having twins, "Can you tell the gender of the babies? Or is it to early to tell?" Harm asked. "If you want to know I can see if I can find out." She turned back to the screen and began moving the wand around.

    "Un huh, yes baby A, is definitely a boy. See here," and she pointed the boy out to them on the screen. Harm grinned they were having a boy. "Now let me see, baby B, seems to be a little more shy then their brother." She continued to look for a minute when baby A seemed to have moved and she got a clear view of baby B for a few seconds, "Baby b, is a girl. You're having fraternal twins." She printed out a few pictures for them, "Here are your first baby pictures."

     After Commander Sparrow, had prescribed pre-natal vitamins, and she answered their questions and wanted to see her again next month, Mac was free to change back into her clothes. While Mac was changing Harm spoke quietly to Dr. Sparrow. "Does that mean she'll get twice as fat…I-I-I mean big?" Dr. Sparrow smiles and covers her mouth with her hand as she notices Mac had heard that. Harm turned and winced as Mac glared at him. He babbled for a minute, and Mac hit him upside the head. "Ow," Harm mumbled. "Thank you, Marie." Mac said as she took Harm by the arm and they walked out of the doctor's office.

     On the way to the car, Mac stopped Harm and stood in front of him. Harm winced waiting, but nothing came the next thing he felt were Mac's lips on his. Slightly stunned at first, but he recovered quickly and kissed her back. They were having twins! He was married to the most amazing woman in the world and he going to be a daddy to two kids and Mac was going to be a mommy! Life was looking good!

     Harm dialed a California number. Mac sat next to him at the kitchen table as he listened to the phone rang. 2 rings later, a familiar female voice answered. "Hello." "Hey, mom." "Harm, dear. How are you and Sarah doing? How's the house?" Harm chuckled softly, "We're doing fine and the house is great. But we uh, have some more news for you. Is Frank around he's going to want to hear this to." He put the phone on speaker phone so that both he and Mac could talk and they could hear Trish calling for Frank. "Okay, son, we're both here, what's your news?"

     "Well, do you remember when you said that we could thank you by filling up all the extra rooms?" "Un huh," Frank said not quite catching on, when all of a sudden a small scream came from Trish. "Sarah's pregnant?!" Harm and Mac laughed. "Yes, mom. I'm pregnant." Trish screamed again and Frank congratulated them. Mac looked at Harm, "Well, that's not all, we're having twins sometime in March." Both grandparents to be were overjoyed at hearing the news and couldn't wait to come out to D.C at Christmas. And Trish promised that she would come out around when the babies were due with Frank to help out a little.

     Harm and Mac were sitting in the Admiral's office waiting to tell him their news. The Admiral was on the phone with the Secnav, so they were seated in front of his desk. Finally, he hung up the phone and turned to his officers. "Now, what can I help you with Commander, Colonel." "Well, sir, the Colonel had a doctor's appointment yesterday and we found out that we're going to have a baby or err twins, sir." The Admiral looked stunned for a second on hearing that she was pregnant with twins. "That's great, you guys. Congratulations." He got up and walked around to them and hugged Mac and kissed her cheek, and shook Harm's hand.

     "Well, now that'll mean no more traveling for you, Colonel, correct?" The Admiral said looking at Mac. "Correct, sir." "And you'll make sure that any time you feel uncomfortable and want to come home or you think its time you took a break and rested, you come to me right away, understood." Mac nodded, "Yes, sir." "Well, let's go tell the staff," the Admiral said. Mac turns and starts to walk out of the office followed by Harm and the Admiral.

     The Admiral claps Harm on the back as they walk to the door, "Good luck, and make sure you have plenty of Advil." He chuckles as Harm's smile falters and he walks out of the office following the Admiral.

     Tiner yells, "Attention on deck," as the Admiral enters the bullpen. "At ease, at ease. Commander Rabb and Colonel Mackenzie have some news to share with everybody." Everybody was silent and watching the Commander and Colonel as the Admiral stepped aside. Harm cleared his throat, "Yesterday, the Colonel and I found out that the Colonel is pregnant." Everyone with Harriet, Bud, Sturgis, Tiner, and the Gunny in the lead went up and congratulated Harm and Mac.

     A few minutes in, Harm clears his throat once more, "We also found out that we'll be expecting fraternal twins sometime in March." Harriet, Bud, Sturgis, Tiner, and the Gunny who were in the front looked at their friends with wide eyes…

     That's it for now, next chapter I've already got my ideas on. And I'm going to start writing it either tonight or tomorrow morning hopefully to be up soon. I am trying to work on 'Disney Magic' but find I'm at a loss for inspiration there. If you would like to see it continue please tell me and boost my inspiration! The story 'How Do I' may possibly be seen once I finish E-baby for this is a more complex story then any of my others, so bear with me. And I've been working on some other ideas for stories as well! Thanks a ton to Katie my beta-reader and her friend Sam for helping me to come up with my inspiration and giving me some fantastic ideas! You guys are the best!! Please read and review!!
