Ino is now seven months pregnant. Shika is sitting on the couch rubbing Ino's large stomach. They finished putting all the baby stuff from the shower away a few weeks ago.
"Shika, I can't believe they will be here soon." Ino said.
"I know, I am looking forward to seeing their little faces, I bet they are going to be just as beautiful as you." Shika replied
Ino gasped then said, "They may be coming sooner rather than later." She then grabbed her stomach as a sharp pain that lasted a minute or so took hold.
"Let's get you to the hospital." Shika said calmly. He helped Ino up and helped her to the hospital. Once in the hospital Tsunade took them to a room.
"Okay so what seems to be the problem?" Tsunade asked.
"She had a contraction…" Shika replied as he grabbed Ino's hand seeing the pain in her eyes.
"Okay, let me check you." Tsunade said then checked to see if Ino had dilated any.
"Well?" Shika asked.
"Well she is progressing pretty quickly she is four centimeters." Tsunade replied.
"But I am only seven months along!" Ino exclaimed.
"Well Ino it is normal for women having multiples to go into an early labor." Tsunade explained.
"Will they be okay?" Shika asked.
"They might have to stay in the hospital and they might not it depends on how they do after they are born." Tsunade replied.
"But they are not going to die are they?" Ino asked.
"Well with all births there is that chance, the chance is greater with premature births but I am sure they will be just fine." Tsunade answered.
"Love I will be right back, I need to run to the house to get your stuff and some stuff for the girls for when they get here, will you be okay for an hour or so?" Shika asked.
"Yea, go on, I will be fine." Ino replied.
"I will stay with her Shikamaru, she will be fine." Tsunade said. Shika nodded and ran to his house and got the stuff needed and he ran back to the hospital.
He got back to Ino's room seeing her squeeze Tsunade's hand as another contraction hit. He took Tsunade's place. "Shika it hurts!" Ino yelled once the contraction ended.
"I know love; if I could take your place I would I can't stand seeing you in pain." Shika said and he kissed his wife's sweaty forehead.
"Awww Shika that is so sweet." Ino replied.
Tsunade checked Ino again three hours later only to find that she was fully dilated.
"Well, Ino on the next contraction I need you to push for me." Tsunade said.
"Okay, how did I progress so fast?" Ino asked astonished.
"Well like pregnancy every labor is different, now push." Tsunade replied noticing Ino's face contort into one of pain. Ino did as she was told.
"I can see the head." Tsunade said Shika looked and smiled then kissed Ino on her forehead.
"Love we are about to have one of our two daughters." Shika said the grin never leaving his face.
"Ino one more time and you will have your first daughter." Tsunade said.
Once again Ino pushed and then a small cry filled the room. "Well you have your first daughter, what is her name?" Tsunade asked.
"Yuki." The proud parents answered in unison.
Tsunade cleaned up Yuki and put her in the little bed. She then went back to Ino.
"Okay push Ino." Tsunade said. Ino pushed, and then heard another cry fill the room.
"Keiko." The proud parents said the name in unison.
Once Keiko was cleaned up Tsunade left the parents with their children who were perfectly healthy even though they were two months early. "Oh my god, we are parents!" Ino squealed.
"Yes we are." Shika said while handing Keiko to her mommy.
Tsunade returned to the room three hours later to check on the Nara family and get the birth certificates signed. Once they were signed she released Ino and the children since they were doing so well.
Once Ino and Shika got home with their two new daughters they decided to introduce them to Missy. Ino held the children while Shika held Missy up to the babies so she could sniff them.
After Shika put Missy down he and Ino both fed and changed one of their girls.
"Shika, let's put them to bed." Ino said looking at the clock which read 10pm.
"Okay love, I bet you are pretty tired too huh?" Shika asked in response.
"Oh yea." Ino replied.
"Well if the girls wake up in the middle of the night I will take care of them so you can sleep." Shika said.
"Thanks." Ino said grateful that she would not be waking up at all hours of the night.
Once they had the girls in their cribs they walked to their room and changed. Ino placed her lips to Shika's and they stayed lip locked for a minute or so. Ino then crawled into bed and Shika joined her.
"I love you." Shika said
"I love you too." Ino replied then drifted off. Shika watched her sleep for ten minutes then let the darkness of sleep overcome him as well.
A/N~ Okay, I do know a bit about child birth but not much, just enough to know the basics, and I know that they usually keep mom and baby at the hospital for about three days, but at birthing centers and very few hospitals if the mom and baby are doing good after so many hours they get to go home. Anyway Reviews would be greatly appreciated!
