Six weeks later

Derek rolled over in bed as he awoke to the smell of something burning. He sniffed the air as he quickly got up and ran down stairs. He entered the kitchen to hear the smoke alarm beeping as he saw Meredith open the microwave as she furiously coughed. She waved the dish towel that was near-by until the smoke alarm went off. She turned to Derek.

"Morning." said Meredith as she coughed one last time. She reached into the microwave and pulled out something charcoaled. "Bacon?" asked Meredith.

Derek wrinkled his nose slightly. "I'm going to pass." said Derek as he watched Meredith take a bite. "You're really going to eat it?" asked Derek.

"I was craving bacon. I made it I'm going to eat it." said Meredith as she took a bite. "No matter how bad it tastes." said Meredith.

Derek handed her a napkin as she spit the horrendous food into it. He smiled slightly as she sat down on the island stool. At almost five and a half months pregnant Meredith's stomach was ever so swollen. Derek smiled as he put his hand to her stomach. "How's my little man doing?" asked Derek.

Meredith raised her eyebrows slightly. "Yesterday you though it was a girl." said Meredith with a smirk.

"Well today I think it's a boy." said Derek. "We really should talk about names." said Derek.

Meredith's head started to hurt as she heard that. Now at the halfway mark of her pregnancy all Derek could take about were names and the nursery and all this talk about how a baby was really going to be here in less then four months. It was stressing her out.

"Maybe after we get home from work?" suggested Derek.

"Yeah we'll see." said Meredith as she got up from her seat. "I have to be at the hospital in about forty five minutes, so I'd better shower." said Meredith as she kissed him on the cheek. "I'll see you later." said Meredith as she walked towards the stairs.

God it was going to be a long four months.

"This is not fair." sighed Meredith to her fellow residents and friends as she sat down with her lunch tray. "I'm no longer aloud to do surgery because I'm not aloud to stand on my feet for six hours. Derek's driving me nuts and I hate being pregnant!" said Meredith as she stuck her fork forcefully into her salad.

"Aw are McDreamy and McBaby stomping on your last McNerves?" asked Cristina with a mock pout.

Meredith rolled her eyes at Cristina's statement. "You think?"

Meredith stood by the nurse's desk filling out charts. She scribbled her initials on the one she was working on as she closed the file and opened the next one.

"Excuse me Nurse?" joked a voice behind her. She turned around to see Mark smiling.

"Ha ha very funny." said Meredith. "What chart do you need?" asked Meredith.

"Well actually I was wondering if you wanted to scrub in on a skin graft with me?" asked Mark.

"I'm not allowed to scrub in." said Meredith. "I can longer practice medicine apparently." said Meredith.

"I won't say anything to anyone." said Mark.

Meredith smile as she put down the chart. "Alright but let's go before someone see's."

Meredith groaned as she sat down on the couch later at home. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to scrub in. Why? Because her feet had swollen up like balloons within the first hour of surgery. She rested her head on the back of the couch as she heard the door open.

"Mere?" called Derek as he walked into the living room.

"In here." called Meredith.

Derek walked into the living room a plastic bag in his hand. "Hey I stopped off at the paint store. I got some sample colors for the room."

Meredith shut her eyes as he went on and on about all things about the baby. All she heard was mumbling as she tried to tune him out. She finally opened her eyes.

"Derek shut up! Just shut up!" said Meredith as she walked towards the kitchen.

"Meredith." said Derek as he followed her into the kitchen. He leaned up against the counter and watched her as she opened a water bottle and gulped a long sip. "What's going on?"

"What's going on?" retorted Meredith back. "What's going on is that you're all gung ho about this and I'm not ready!" said Meredith.

"Mere, I know this is scary but you're ready for this." assured Derek as he tucked a piece of hair that had escaped from her ponytail behind her ear.

"I'm not…. I…" said Meredith as she stopped and sharply inhaled.

"What's the matter?" asked Derek as worriedly as he looked at her trying to figure out what had just happened.

"The baby just kicked." said Meredith as she put her hand on her stomach. "Oh my god it's moving." said Meredith as she took Derek hand and placed it on her stomach. They held their both their hands there until they both felt a thump against their hands.

Derek smiled as he kissed Meredith's forehead. Meredith sighed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "We can do this." said Derek as he gently stroked her back.

Meredith nodded as she pulled away and looked back up at him. "So, let's talk about baby names."

Okay so I think have picked the sex of the baby, but I'm not going to tell you! I'm just going to give you two names for each and you guys tell me which ones you like best!
