I did my research and now know the Nobel Prize of Physics award ceremony is held the third week of December. So that mean Penny and Leonard conceived their baby around the third week of October 2019. So this would have probably been the plot for season 13 which a Penny pregnancy arc would have been more entertaining than both Bernadette's because well it's Penny. The whole series finale probably won't hit me until September comes around and will not be any new episode. Enjoy as I still do not own these amazing characters.

After 12x24: Adjusting

Who knew going out drinking with one of your closet friends and coming home attacking your husband would get you pregnant. Between the alcohol and only caring about one thing you might forget a certain item.

Who knew few months later you and your husband would find out. Took maybe a few minutes to realize it is okay to be scared but you have the best partner in the world to know everything is going to okay. And now is way better than okay, you're happy even the news is still fresh in your mind. Eventually your friends find out and with the love and support through them, this accidental pregnancy is actually the best thing yourself and your husband could experience. They have the best second family in the Universe.

They waited to arrive home from Sweden to wait to tell their families. But Penny brought up that Christmas was just around the corner and how that would be at least a perfect gift for her parents. "Do you think your mom heard Sheldon's speech?" Penny asked going over when to tell everyone else.from the big tan chair, sitting sideways making her legs drap over the arm rest.

Leonard was in the kitchen grabbing a bowl of fruit for a snack for his wife since that was a few things she could hold down. He began to write a list down of what Penny could eat and could eat but would get sick afterwards foods. Leonard looked up at his wife with a confused look, "You know what I have no clue. Should we tell her about your pregnancy now?" He asked Penny with a raised eyebrow. Leonard walked over to her and sat by her legs, facing towards his wife on the arm rest.

"Well if she did hear Sheldon's speech maybe she did hear we are expecting and waiting for us to tell her personally." Penny shrugged her shoulders for the hopeful possibility. She suddenly caught a glance at her husband's both ring finger as Leonard began to use one hand to rub Penny's small pregnant belly as his other hand rubbed her upper thigh. "Did you paint your nails?" She couldn't help but asking. She almost couldn't wait for an answer.

Leonard blushed a little but just smiled, as he continued rubbing his wife's belly. "You caught that huh? Well I thought pink is a good color on me. What do you think?" He gave Penny a smug look as he waved his fingers at her.

Penny giggled lightly with a big grin. "I think is a wonderful color on you. But why only two fingers though?" As she took both of Leonard's hands and placed them back where they were before. Penny couldn't help but enjoy when Leonard rubbed her stomach now. It was now a sensation she needed feel since he began to do it since they found out being pregnant.

Leonard did not hold back his smile on how adorable his wife was being and decided to explain his desire to paint one finger nail on each hand. "I know it should not matter what we are having because I will be happy no matter what. Our baby is already amazing only you being eight weeks along. But just for the heck of it I had this feeling to paint those nails to throw out in the Universe I am slightly hoping for a girl. Even though we might have to be extra protective if we do have a girl."

Penny scooted up and swung her legs, makig sure she did not accidentally kick Leonard, and stood up. "Come here you." She tells him holding out her arms. Then asks, "Why a girl?"

Leonard pulls him into his wife's hug, of course with a sweet short kiss. But somehow becomes longer, satisfying, and passionate. As Leonard tickles his fingers up his wife's outer thigh, Penny lets out a giggle. "I guess in my head I can see our baby if we had a girl with your blonde hair but add my curls. Of course she would have your beautiful green eyes. I know same could happen if our baby was a boy. But could also be that none of our friends has stolen my girl name."

Penny tilts her head in wonder, trying to ignore the sensation Leonard is giving her. "Tell me!" She pulls her husband closer because the tension is not enough.

Of course he is trying his best to remember but Penny was making everything harder mentally and physically. "Ummm... Charlotte, Charlie for short."

"Hmm, Charlotte Hofstadter. It does have a nice ring to it." Penny confessed but with Leonards touch, painting his own two finger nails, and already having a name for their baby, even though Leonard picked the name out twelve years ago, it was still sexy. She figured this pregnancy has heighten her sexual drive. Which somehow she did not know how since she already loved sex. Even better since it had been with Leonard for quite some time. But as Leonard's of course automatically free hand lays on her stomach, her pregnancy reminds her how hungry she is. She pushes her husband slightly back giving off a very bewildered look. So Penny went to explain herself. "Babe as much as I want this, because it feels amazing... But your wife and unborn baby are starving here."

Leonard chuckled with a big grin. "Okay, sorry, kinda got distracted. Lets get you fed." He then walked with his wife and gave her bowl of fresh cut fruit. Leonard began to sit next to her and eat his own bowl.

After talking one bite, Penny could barely hold back the moan. Which by the look on Leonard's face he was already turned on once more. She loved teasing him but noticed after her first bite that her fruit was missing something. "Sweetie, this is good and all but you know what would make it even better?"

"Um what?" Leonard was almost afraid to ask. He looked at his wife then back to her bowl waiting for an answer.

Penny eyebrows raised some biting the fork while looking at her husband with a very sultry look. With Leonard gulping hard, she was still teasing him even now she was trying her best not to. It just came natural to her when she was around her husband. "You're sweet non dairy almond whip cream and spicy dill pickles..."

Leonard lowered his head as he tried his hardest not to laugh, just shaking his head. He looked over at his wife feeling amused, "You and your weird cravings..."

Penny frowned and pointed her fork at her husband's chest. "Hey mister this is half your fault I crave weird food and flavors. But also half your fault I crave sex at the same time and more than my normal. Which was pretty high to begin with."

Leonard bit his lip from laughter and threw his arms in the air as he washe guilty one. "Okay, okay! I will get your spicy pickles and my almond whip cream."

Leonard got up as Penny moved the fork away and waited. But she could not help but watch her husband's cute tussie. God she loved her husband's tussie. She chewed her bottom lip and as he turned around with the items Penny got up from her stool, walked up to him and helped Leonard put them back in the fridge. Then she took both of his hands and started guiding him to their bedroom.

"I thought you were starving?" Leonard asked frowning in confussion following his wife.

"Thanks to you I am starving for something else." Penny grinned at Leonard looking over her shoulder.

"Okie Dokie!" Is all Leonard could reply feeling very excited and beyond turned on. All he knew so far Penny's pregnancy already was very interesting.

As the couple laid in bed after there sweet satisfied love making, Penny was snuggled up to Leonard. As he held his wife he heard her stomach growl. "I'm guessing food is more important right now than snuggling with your husband?"

Penny gave Leonard a pleading look and a nod. Which made him burst out laughing and asked Penny what she was craving since the fresh cut fruit was probably not fresh any more. "Well I still want those pickles with that non dairy almond whip cream to dip them in."

Leonard was getting up as he was still amazed Penny was still craving this. But as he did, Penny kept listing off weird food combinations. As he finally made it to the kitchen, Leonard found the wooden food tray and prepared Penny's food. Once he was done he walked back into the bedroom. His heart felt like it was about to burst. There was Penny curled up on her side fast asleep. Leonard sat down the tray on Penny's makeup table and crawled in next to her. He tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and watched her sleep. He would give her a few more minutes before he woke her so she could eat something. Leonard could not believe in just thirty-two weeks or a little less or a little more he would be holding their baby. A year ago he never thought was going to happen. But after their little "oops," Leonard was so happy that Penny accepted on what happened and was getting more excited becoming a mom. She was going to be amazing. With that in Leonard's mind he decided to wake her up.

Penny opened an eye to see her husband looking at her, giving her a small corner smile. "Sorry I feel asleep. You wore me out." Penny confessed feeling content and not wanting to move.

"I wore you out? That is unusual. I was only out there for twenty minutes. I was in the zone!" Leonard could not help but give his wife a hard time and quit proud of himself with a smug look on his face.

Penny crinckled her nose, "Shut up!"

That alone made him chuckle and kissed her forehead, "Alright, got it. How about some of that food you were craving instead?"

"Oooh... Yes please!" Penny sat up quickly as Leonard just shook his head as he went over to get Penny's tray.

Penny was quit relieved that the food had stayed down for once. So she decided to get dressed that way she could go out with Amy and Bernadette. They all decided to go Christmas shopping and have a late dinner to officially celebrate Penny's pregnancy since now that Amy had her moment.

As Penny left with her friends, Leonard was waiting for the guys to come over. He was actually glad to have a moment to himself since Sheldon was still over at his place on the phone with Mary. Penny had suggested that Leonard should announce the pregnancy to Beverly on his own since the newish son/mother relationship was still a working progress but was still getting better. So he sat at his desk and waited for his mom to answer her FaceTime call.

"Well hello Dear." Beverly answered.

"Hi Mom, so were you able to hear or watch Sheldon's and Amy's acception speech the other day?" Leonard tried to stay calm not and act normal just in case Beverly did hear the radio or Internet broadcast. To his surprise, his mom missed it due to personal relations. Leonard was glad Beverly did not try to go into detail but admitted she read that both Sheldon and Amy acception speech were inspirational and that their friends did not have a dry eye in the auditorium. "It was a very moving speech. But the article seemed to leave out one tiny detail." Leonard could feel the smile creep on his face.

"And what would be that Dear?" Is all Beverly asked waiting patiently for her oldest son to annouce whatever he had to tell her.

"Penny's pregnant!" This was a feeling he knew now he would never get tired of telling people. Leonard was for sure he was grinning like a fool but this news felt bigger than after him and Penny announced their engagement what seemed so long ago.

"Really? I thought your wife did not want children?" Beverly felt quite confused as she tilted her head slighy to the side.

Leonard could tell she was so he told the short version what had happened and now Penny was happy about having their baby.

"Well congratulations Dear. I am sure you will make an exceptional father as Penny will as a mother. I. happy for the both of you." Beverly was up most honest with her son.

"Wow! Thank you mom! It means so much to me that you really think that. I will tell Penny what you said." It might still be that hold your breath feeling when Leonard talked to his mom. But to hear she was happy for him and his wife felt another weight lifted off his shoulders. With that mother and son said they loved each other which was something they started saying to each other since last May when he forgave her. Leonard was told by Beverly to tell Sheldon she would call him in a few days to wish him congratulations as she was on a book tour in England. He was also told by his mother to tell Penny to expect a call from her also.

After hanging up Leonard turned towards the door as he saw Sheldon walk through. Couple minutes after that, Raj, Howard, and even Stuart tagged along. But the guys also wanted to take Leonard out to celebrate becoming a dad.

Penny frowned as she arrived home noticing her husband was nowhere in site. But did give her a chance to hide part of her Christmas gift to Leonard. After she hid it and came out to the hallway is when Leonard came in to the door. She smiled at him as she headed to the fridge for a bottle of water, "So how was guys night?'' She asked opening the water while now sitting on the stool.

Leonard put his keys in the bowl and headed straight to his wife. "Awesome! We went to laser tag and we were the team with the most points. Then went to this really cool bar that Raj found that has every arcade game from the 80's you can think of and play. We just kind of just celebrated our own accomplishments. You know us having a baby, Sheldon and Amy's award, Raj starting all over again with a new girl and hoping this girl will be the one. And Howard all excited Michael said his first word, which was "Dada." So he won the bet against Bernadette. Oh and the guys made fun of my painted finger nails. I tried to explain but they didn't get it. Anyways how was your ladies night?" Leonard reached his wife and gave her a quick kiss on the lips after telling his wife about his evening.

Penny placed a hand on Leonard's shoulder just thay way she just could feel that sensation of touching her husband. "It was good. You know the typical shopping at the mall and dinner. Which I am hoping all the food I have ate today will not result in a repeat of Sweden. The bathroom floor and toliet is not my ideal to hang out with my friends and husband." She had quickly not go into detail before she spilled the beans to her own husband because she was quite excited about the parcel gift. But her statement was true.

Leonard couldn't help it as he pulls his wife into a hug. "I'm sorry this pregnancy has not been the easiest on you but just a few more weeks we will be in your second trimester. But until then even though it is not the best place, I don't mind sitting with you in the bathroom. And when I am not near, Amy or Bernadette will comfort you when the baby decides he or she does not like what you ate. The three of us will do anything for you."

Penny pulled back some to look at husband knowing it was true that him and her two best girlfriends would help her through this pregnancy no matter the situation. She tried to fight back her emotions but knew that was impossible now as Leonard looked at her with his big brown eyes. "Damn pregnancy hormones!" and began to cry. Which resulted in Leonard giving her another hug and just holding her.

Once he knew his wife was okay he suggested she could pick whatever movie or show she wanted. She ended up wanting to watch some romcom on Netflix, which led the expecting married couple cuddled up with each other on the couch. Which led them into a very heated makeout session, which Penny was very happy about that they could still do that for the time being. Which eventually led them to a very steamy shower. With both Leonard and Penny exhausted, they said hell with getting dressed for bed and curled up to each other as they fell alseep quickly.

Well until a few minutes passed three in the morning. Penny's eyes shot right open and she scrambled out of bed making a bee line to the bathroom. Leonard woke up suddenly knowing exactly where his wife was headed. He grabbed his robe and Penny's and gladly followed his wife.
