Change of plans, scratch that farewell letter! This story's potential has roamed back to me and I've decided to continue it! It might be badly written, I'm not sure, but I'm putting effort into it so I hope you like it!
November 6:
Rosalie's POV
Our baby girl had been dancing lately and I felt her every move it seemed. After spending most of my time as a vampire believing I was unable to have children, this pregnancy was my ultimate heaven. It was certainly different than human pregnancy, but it was going to result in a beautiful baby nevertheless. According to Carlisle, the baby never sleeps; just like Emmett and myself. It makes perfect sense. She is our child after all.
I was due to deliver around the first week of February, and we had just began putting our tiny girl's nursery together. So far, we'd put a white cradle, a diaper changing station and a dresser in the room. The walls were painted a lovely pastel pink. Alice had insisted we plan a baby shower far in advance, and it was set for January 10.
Bella's POV
Being 13 weeks along felt strange. I'd never pictured myself as a teenage mother, though I never had a clear vision of what I wanted for my future. This was probably why. As unusual of a thought it is, I think this was my destiny: to have a baby with Jasper at 18. It felt right.
Charlie had brought home a unisex onesie set for the baby last week. He said he'd support us and the baby in any way he could; he didn't want me to become a mother so young but it was happening so he could at least be supportive of our brave decisions. I like his view of the situation.
We have yet to inform my mom about the baby, but I think we will tell her in a few weeks. I feel no need to rush it. We'd just announced our child's existence to the rest of Jasper's household. Carlisle will be doing an ultrasound next week to check up on things.
November 11:
"Are you ready to see your baby?" Carlisle asked me while setting the ultrasound machine up.
"Yes, I've been ready for weeks."
"Very well, let's take a peek at this tiny person!" He said as he lowered the ultrasound wand to my lower stomach where I had a small bump growing. Jasper took my hand as he did so.
A few seconds later, our little one was on the monitor and was moving slowly.
"When can we find out the sex of the baby?" Jasper asked Carlisle.
"Whenever the genitals are clearly visible on the monitor. Sadly they are not visible yet, but they may be next checkup."
"I can't wait to start getting stuff for it!" Jasper stated excitedly. His excitement toward baby shopping was completely unexpected. It would be for most guys. But Jasper clearly differs from the typical guy.
Jasper's POV
Call me strange for getting excited to buy baby stuff, whatever. I don't care. There are many better reasons to call me strange if you must do so.
I'm just very excited for this baby; my own flesh combined with Bella's. A little person half me, half the girl I love. The start of our family together. Why wouldn't a man be looking forward to such? Just the thought of those men baffles me deeply.
Bella and I need to start planning things soon. Things such as are we going to college still? I do not plan to, but she may desire such. Are we going to live together before the baby arrives to be together at all times to care for our child? I hope we do that one. If we do that, will she move in here? Will we get our own house? Will we live with Charlie for some time? There are possibly a hundred details to sort out if not more.
As if reading my mind, she asked to go sort out a few details. We did.
We decided to begin searching around for our own house. Hopefully we'd move in and be settled before the baby's arrival.
Then we went shopping for the baby and came back with a load of diaper changing supplies, some bottles and an idea of what crib we would get later in a few months.
Esme had advised we stock up on diaper stuff along the pregnancy as there would be tons of diapers needed. I could not quite wrap my head around how such a tiny being would be able to pass so much waste, then she explained it was because the baby would be eating every two to four hours in the first few months. It was a good thing I had no need for sleep!
November 20:
Bella's POV
The search for a house was going surprisingly well so far. We'd found three possible options and were taking the day to go look at them.
One was light blue with three bedrooms and one bathroom, one was grey with four bedrooms and two bathrooms and the last was yellow with two bedrooms and bathrooms and a huge yard.
At the end of the day, we decided the grey one was the nicest option and we began looking further into it.
A few days later it was decided that the grey house would soon be home, and Jasper bought it.
December 1:
I was about 17 weeks along with the baby and my baby bump popped out. It became so big so suddenly it even shocked Carlisle.
Rosalie was 31 weeks along and kept getting practice contractions. She and Edward had put major progress into their daughter's nursery and it was looking precious.
Jasper and I had just selected out furniture for all rooms of our house except the baby's room and it was to be delivered today.
I had an ultrasound appointment with Carlisle next week to check up on the baby and hopefully find out the gender.
The week was busy setting up our house and it flew by in a breeze.
When the time came for my ultrasound, something incredibly strange was discovered.
My belly was growing at an abnormal rate now, I had gained eleven pounds since my last check up at 16 weeks where I was only supposed to gain two to five, and the weirdest yet: I was only 18 weeks pregnant but the fetus was 25 weeks into development!
Carlisle said we'd have to come in every week now or whenever a major change occurred to make sure everything was alright.
How would we explain this to my dad?
Jasper and I hurried to shop for the baby and set our nursery up in case the baby arrived unexpectedly. Carlisle had made sure we knew the baby would likely come very early, though he could not currently predict when exactly.
When I'd found out I was pregnant, I never pictured this happening!
