Chapter 8: Check-ups and Yoda Baby-grows

Elizabeth is 6 months pregnant

Elizabeth woke with a spring in her step because sure enough today was the day when she could finally find out whether the little child inside her would be a girl or a boy.

"Will! Check-up today" Elizabeth wriggled over to her sleeping fiancee laying motionless next to her.

"I'm awake" Will hit the air sleepily and rubbed his eyes.

"It's 9 o' clock, the appointments at 9:55" Elizabeth took her clothes from the wardrobe hastily and looked at her watch.

"Liz, it's going to be fine, we've got more than half an hour to get there" Will tucked her flyaway hair behind her ear supportively.

"Are you sure?" Elizabeth buttoned her shirt over her prominent stomach and pulled her maternity jeans over her wide hips.

"Yes, look it's a Turner baby, it's going to be fine" Will rubbed Liz's stomach and felt the baby move slightly inside of her.

"I suppose you're right. Deep breath and everything is gonna be fine" Elizabeth tied her hair back in a neat plait and took her coat from the back of her chair and proceeded through the kitchen.

"Ready?" Will smiled and zipped his coat up. Liz pulled on her coat and kissed Will on his cheek.

"Purse, keys, diary, phone, got everything" Elizabeth took her bag off the counter and made her way down the stairs, hand in hand with Will.

"Will, it's been a long time since I have been able to drive this beast" Elizabeth ran her fingers along the painted bonnet of the car.

"No, no, no way" Will held the keys in front of her face and watched as her eyes followed them to and fro.

"Okay but when the baby's out of me I'll get my pay-back" Elizabeth smiled as she got into the opposite side.

"Oh I've got a surprise for later" Will kissed Elizabeth's cheek and revved up the engine.

Five minutes of tedious traffic jams later...

Will led Elizabeth through to the doors and straight to the receptionist's desk.

"Swann at 9:55, Dr Kelanski" Elizabeth took the little slip of paper and placed it immaculately on the desk in front of the receptionist.

"Okay just go on through, the doctor should be waiting for you" The lady pointed over to the open door and smiled mechanically.

"Mr Turner, Ms Swann take a seat" Dr Kelanski took out his notes and look through them thoroughly.

"Thank Doctor" Elizabeth seated herself beside her fiancee and bit her nails, a nervous habit she had acquired from her mother's apprehensive attitude during her pregnancy.

"Ms Swann, have you been experiencing nausea, cramps or any morning sickness?" The doctor looked up from his desk and waited for an answer.

"Yes, I've been throwing up very early in the morning and very bad cramps down the side of my stomach" Elizabeth pointed to where she could feel the pain and winced.

"Aye, it's what is to be expected" Dr Kelanski exited from the room for a few moments and entered later wheeling the echocardiogram machine into the examination room.

"Are we going to get a sonogram because we weren't able to get one at the last appointment?" Will inquired as he squeezed Liz's hand supportively.

"Yes, you will able to get one this time. I'm extremely sorry, I'm imagine we were a bit side-trapped" Elizabeth smiled as she felt the jelly around her abdomen.

"There's our little swimmer" Will pointed at the two dimensional picture in the ultrasound moving slowly.

"The baby has really got big in two months" Elizabeth stared mesmerised at the swimming foetus.

"Yes it's remarkable how big babies get during the pregnancy" Dr Kelanski moved the instrument further up and down Elizabeth's abdomen.

Elizabeth noticed something although she wasn't practised in medicine or any kind of midwifery so could not determine it for real, but she noticed something rather exciting about her unborn child.

"Do you want to know the sex of the baby?" Dr Kelanski smiled at the pair watching their child move in slow motion and listening to its heartbeat carefully.

"Ye-" Elizabeth interrupted Will and continued with what she was saying. "No thank you, Doctor. I've changed my mind, keeping it as a nice surprise" Elizabeth smiled cheekily at her bewildered fiancee.

"Well I suppose that is it for 4 weeks, here's your sonogram" Dr Kelanski wiped the jelly off Elizabeth's stomach and handed them the black and white picture.

"Thank you" Elizabeth felt her body being lifted from the examination couch, she looked Will's comfortingly warm eyes.

"Will, I need to talk to you" Elizabeth opened the door to the car and slid herself in comfortably.

"Sure what is it?" Will turned to face Elizabeth, her eyes blazing with sheer excitement.

"I think, well I don't think I'm positive we're having a girl" Elizabeth looked at Will, waiting for a happy expression.

"How on earth do you know?" Will sat bewildered with his head leaning against his hand.

"The thing is on the ultrasound I couldn't see a penis" Elizabeth broke the news without falling into a fit of giggles.

"Of course you didn't, it's been 6 months" Will took out a small package from the glove compartment. "Anyway how would 'she' be able to wear this?" Will handed the little present to Elizabeth.

"Oh Will! It's adorable" Elizabeth opened the package to reveal a tiny baby-grow with a picture of Yoda on the front.

"I got it yesterday from the market" Elizabeth read the slogan imprinted on the front of the tiny piece of clothing;

'Smaller than Yoda, I am'

"I love it. The baby will too, I'm sure" Elizabeth stroked Will's stubbled chin adoringly.

"I love you, Elizabeth Katherine-" Will's mouth suddenly clasped shut he looked down to see Elizabeth's fingers covering it.

"Will, you promise not to utter my embarrassing middle name in public" Elizabeth took her hand from Will's mouth and gazed adoringly into his eyes.

"Alright, Agnes" Elizabeth thumped Will across his chest and shrieked.

"Shut up, Michel" Elizabeth smirked as Will's smile turned into a playful frown.

"It's French! My father was obviously drunk one night when he thought up my middle name" Will laughed as they slowly pulled out of the little car park round the back of the main building.

"Ready to go up?" Will held out his hand which Elizabeth gratefully took and slowly made their way to the doors.

"Lizzy Lou!" Elizabeth turned around to see who had called for her, she smiled and gasped at what or who she saw.

"Jackie! Jackie Hutchinson!" Elizabeth hugged her long-lost friend tightly and gawped at Will.

"How long has it been?" Jackie asked as they separated and all three walked into the reception.

"8 years, 8 long years. And some of us have kept together" Elizabeth glanced over at Will, who made himself inconspicuous, flicking through a Metro that had been left at the reception desk.

"Aw! Liz and Will, childhood sweethearts" Jackie led them to her apartment door and unlocked it.

"I never knew you lived in this block, I would have let you into ours if I'd known" They were interrupted by a young teenage girl and boy, who both barely look over thirteen.

"Mum, Jesse stole my CD again" The girl whined as she gently poked her brother.

"Jesse, stop frolicking with your sister and greet our most humble guests" Jackie bowed her head comically.

"Jesse Michael Sparrow" Jesse continued to do the same as his mother.

"Katherine Callista Sparrow" Katherine smiled cheekily as she twirled.

"Sorry to be so forward but they don't look anything like you, Jackie" Will crossed his arms and looked at the two children and back at their 'mother'

"I know, they're adopted from a man who was too young to look after so I took on the responsibility. Never have regretted it since" Jackie ruffled Jesse's long hair and gave him a wet willy.

"Jack Sparrow by any chance" Elizabeth spoke out at the available chance.

"Yes. How did you know?" Jackie took off her coat and placed it on the hook.

"Oh let's just say, we've had a few close encounters with the guy" Will scratched his stubble and laughed.

"Sorry to kick you guys out like this but we have a Parent's Evening to go to" Jackie smartened up Jesse's mad hair and smiled supportively.

"No problem, I'll have to remember the flat number, 1742" Elizabeth waved good-bye to the children and hugged Jackie, smiling elatedly.

"Great, yours?" Jackie took a pad from the drawer and wrote down their flat number.

"1829, top floor" Will took Elizabeth up the stairs, helping her all the way.

"Nice little reunion" Elizabeth giggled as she clumsily slipped up the marble steps.

"Careful, love" Will pulled Elizabeth onto his shoulders and carefully carried her up to their flat door.

"Thanks Will" Elizabeth pulled on Will's tie closer to her chest and ran her fingers through his longer hair with her other hand.

"What are you up to, missus?" Will slipped his hand down Liz's back, looking in her seductive brown eyes.

"Nothing" Elizabeth smiled as she went in for the kill. Will's lips felt something foreign and unreal. He took his lover in his arms and kissed her neck sexually.

"Oi get a room" They looked up to find a rather rotund, bald man staring at them, open-mouthed, snorting disgustedly.

"Come on, tiger" Elizabeth giggled uncontrollably as they stumbled through the door.

"Elizabeth, Abby 'talked' to me last night whilst you were asleep" Will pulled his body towards Elizabeth's prominent stomach, her shirt framing her abdomen in it's entirety.

"Will, foetuses can't talk" Elizabeth smiled as Will stared down at her growing stomach.

"They can kick though" Will felt the baby answer his statement.

"Oh she agrees, does she?" Elizabeth crossed her arms and stared at the father and baby moment mellowing between them.

"Yes she says her mum should listen to her dad and stop looking so damn beautiful" Will smiled as Elizabeth kissed him on the cheek.

"Right then, you're cooking tonight" Elizabeth wandered off into the bedroom, leaving Will alone grasping the idea of not burning the dinner for once in his life.

"Oh and the take-away menus on the fridge" Elizabeth poked her head out of the door, fastening a earring to her ear.

"Bangers and mash then?" Will rubbed his hands together, rushing into the kitchen and taking out a ready-meal packet from the fridge.
