As the weeks passed it was getting harder for Sam to get around and Janet wasn't having much luck at it either, they were both coming up on the 30 week mark. Janet kept a close eye on Sam's babies they everything was ok, which it had been. Sam didn't want to know the sex, Janet had found out her baby was a boy. Daniel came home to stay for a week at a time, they kept the fact Jack was alive a secret pretty well. And Jack was coming alone with going through his memories but still wasn't feeling the realness of any of them. It was time for Daniel to head back to work with Jack, Janet said her goodbyes and headed back to the infirmary Cassie was to bring Sam in for a ultrasound today.

Cassie and Sam arrived a few hours later. Sam waddled her way in the best she could.

"Hey girls how we doing?" Janet came out of her office and greeted Sam and Cassie

"Oh you don't even want to go there" Sam said she felt miserable, it hurt to stand for a long time. She climb up on the gurney but had to have Cassie's help. After Cassie got done helping she stepped over and hugged her mom.

"Hey sweetie, thank you for all your help" Janet hugged Cassie

"Yes thank you Cassie, I don't know how I would have been making it with out you" Sam said

"Your welcome, glad I could help, but it isn't over yet either" Cassie said pointing at Sam's largely protruding belly.

"Yes so how bout we take a look at these little ones" Janet said prepping Sam for the ultrasound.

"Well I think I'm going to get a bite to eat while ya'll do that ok? I will be back in a bit" Cassie said leaving the room.

"So Janet how are you feeling today?" Sam asked tired really of being the center of conversation

"It's getting harder for me to do things, the weight is starting to take toll."

"I know that feeling I can't see my feet and to just get up from the sofa is so hard."

"Well the plus side for you Sam is you are all babies, not much weight other than that."

"Thank God!" Sam winced as Janet put the cold gel on her stomach. Instantly the babies were on the screen.

"Ok there they are, let's see….." Janet's face changed as she took a look at some of the readings of heart rate.

"Jan what is it?" Sam asked worried something was wrong

"The third baby on the outside of the womb, the heart rate isn't as strong, we need to keep an eye on him" Janet said.

"Is it going to be ok?" Sam's concerned grew

"To be honest I think we may have to go ahead and take him via c-section."

"But what about the twins?"

"Since they are inside the womb I think they can continue developing just fine"

"So when do you think this will happen?"

"I think we should keep you on bed rest and here at the base for a while to keep a close hour by hour check, but if his heart rate don't improve in the next 24 hours, you will have a one of your babies in your arms."

"What am I going to do about Jonathan?" Sam said concerned of how she is really going to take care of a toddler and this baby while still pregnant, then when the others get here, what was she going to do.

"Cassie can stay with him, and she will be there to help you through this, and you have us too, ok?" Janet said putting her hand on Sam's shoulder. Sam smiled through her tears forming, trying to stay strong.

"Ok you be alright? I need to go and check with Hammond, Daniel is suppose to be coming back today. Cassie will be back in here shortly, if you need anything just let the nurse know, she will page me, ok?"

"Thanks Jan"

Daniel entered the gate room, and there was Janet waiting on him, smiling as he came down leaned in for a kiss. Janet returned his kiss but he could tell something was wrong.'

"Honey what is it?" Daniel asked concerned

"It's Sam, the third baby is not doing well we may have to take it early, How is he?' Janet said knowing Daniel would know she was referring to Jack.

"He is going through his memories, he wants badly to come spend time with Sam, but yet he still doesn't remember her or Jonathan."

"Well I think we might need to let him come home, maybe seeing her and spending time is just what he needs, I know she needs him." They talked as they headed toward Hammonds office

"Dr. Jackson, How is your mission going?" Hammond said meeting them in the briefing room.

"It is making progress, but me and Janet has just discuss letting Jack come home, it might be what he needs to help him completely remember."

"Yes sir, and Sam needs him sir, her third baby is in stress we may have to take him early and I think having Jack here for it will help Sam, even though he may not remember her completely."

"Do you think that's a good idea?" Hammond said looking over at Daniel

"Whether it is or not Sam needs him, and Jack has been wanting to come spend time with her to try and help his memories, we have explained her situation as to why we wouldn't allow it, he understands."

"Ok if you two think it will be ok, Dr. Jackson, you go bring him home, and bring alone Jacob too. I know Sam will want him here. "

"Ok thank you sir, be back soon." And with that Daniel got up and headed back to the gate room.

"Now Janet you go have a talk with Sam, prepare her for this."

Janet stood outside of the room, where Sam was for it seemed forever, she couldn't think of a way to come out and tell Sam Jack had been alive all this time, and they knew about it for the last couple of months. She finally took a deep breathe and walked in quietly, she seem Jonathan sitting next to Sam coloring and Cassie sitting near by, they were laughing about whatever it was Jonathan was drawing. It took a minute but Sam finally looked up and seen Janet, she smiled and Janet worked on faking one herself but Sam knew her to well.

"Hey Janet what's wrong?" Sam asked

"Cassie honey why don't you take little man here for some Jell-o" Janet said going over to help Jonathan off the bed.

"Yea Jell-o, can I get both red and blue?" They all laughed at his question.

"Sure thing bud let's go" Cassie said reaching out her hand, Jonathan grabbed it and turned back toward Sam.

"be back mommy…love you" Sam heart broke "Love you two sweetheart"

Janet waited until they were gone, and as soon as she turned back from the door Sam didn't waste anytime.

"So what is it? Is it the babies?" Sam was scared she didn't want to lose any of the babies, she has lost too much already.

"No at the time they are all fine, listen Sam honey I got to tell you something, and you have a right to be angry, but we only did it for you health and the babies ok?"

"Come on Jan you are scaring me, why would I be angry?"

"A couple of months back right after you found out you were having triplets and the serious condition of how they are, you dad was here"

"My dad, well why didn't he come to see me?" Sam was confused on to where this was going, her dad wouldn't just come by and especially not see her.

"He had some news for us, which we didn't think it was safe for you to know, so he decided to keep his visit a secret so that he wouldn't have to lie to you."

"Janet what is all this about, what secret? Sam getting more and more anxious

"It's Jack, Sweetie he is alive" Janet said gently

Sam sat there in shock, all this time she thought he was dead, and he has been alive and her closest friends and her dad all knew but didn't tell her, she was getting angry. Janet seen the redness forming in Sam's face

"Sam I know what you are thinking but he couldn't come home, because he had lost his memory, he didn't even know his name." Sam started to cry now, to think Jack wouldn't know her, or their children.

"We thought it would be best to try and let him work with your dad and the Tokra with the memory recall device they had to help him. It has worked some, but with you in the condition with this third baby maybe making an appearance soon, we didn't see it fit for him to miss his child being born."

"So he knows about us? Does he remember us at all?" Sam asked hopeful

"He has gone through some of the memories of you and him, he says those memories are the only ones that feel like they could be real." Janet said tearing up herself thinking of what Sam was going through.

"We hope that seeing you and Jonathan will trigger his memory, his memories are there Sam, he just has to work on accessing them."

"When will he be home?"

"Daniel has gone back to bring him and your dad back"

"I can't believe this" Sam try to talk through her tears "He is going to be home, I can hold him, kiss him, I thought I would never be able to do that again" Sam slowly got a smile

Janet seen this and smiled back and leaned in and gave her a hug, just as she pulled away the machine monitoring the heartbeat of the baby went off. Janet looked at Sam who had a look of pain coming across her face.

"Jan…what's…happeni..ugh" Sam said reaching and hold her belly " I can't lose my babies"
