A few months later and Reba was 9 months pregnant she still had that glow to her and she looked as gorgeous as ever, she was getting cranky though she was a few days over her due date and was becoming very uncomfortable but the was sign of the baby wanting to come out.

''Hi honey'' Brock greeted Reba as he walked through the door

''Hey'' she said with an unhappy look

''No sign of Baby Hart yet then?''

''No'' she suddenly burst into tears.

Brock was shocked ''Honey what's the matter?''

''Our baby hates me?''

''What why do you think that?'' he asked as he pulled her into a hug.

''Because it doesn't want to come out'' she said sniffing

Brock chuckled quietly, Reba was always like that towards the end of her pregnancies, she would cry at everything.

''Honey that doesn't meant the baby hates you, it just mean that they fell safer in there and it' warmer''

''But I can them safe and warm outside''

Brock laughed ''Reba the baby will come when he or she is ready''

''You wouldn't say that if you had to carry it around for 9 months''

Brock rolled his eye's ''I'm glad I'm not a woman'' he said to himself as he went to get changed out of his work clothes.


A few days later and there was still no sign of baby Hart making an appearance, Reba tried everything, she ate spicy food, she went for long works, she ate pineapple, and she even tried sex, but that baby just wouldn't budge. She was now a week over her due date and she was so big she couldn't do much so all she did was sit and watch T.V. She placed her hand on her bump it became an automatic thing for Reba.

''Are you ready to come out yet baby, mommy cant wait to meet you neither can daddy or you big brother and sisters and your niece and nephew, i think you will love them and i think you will like your home too. Come on baby come out, there's a lot more space for you to move around out here than you have in there'' but there was nothing no movement no kick.

''Hey Reba'' Brock said as he came into the living room kissing the top of the head

''Hey''

''I see they baby still doesn't want to budge'' Brock said pointing to Reba's huge bump

''NO!'' she snapped ''I'm sorry''

''It's ok, I know you want the baby to come''

''I just want to them in my arms, other than being pregnant the best thing, holding your baby for the time is the best, you fall in love straight away'' she sighed

Brock chuckled ''Yep then they grow up and leave''

Reba glared at Brock ''This child isn't going anywhere' I will chain them to the wall if I have to''

Brock laughed ''I do love you Reba Nell''

''I love you to Brock


Later that same evening both Reba and Brock were watching the T.V. Brock had fallen asleep whilst Reba was still wide awake, she was flicking through the channels when she felt a sharp pain.

''AH!'' she screamed causing Brock to jump ''Honey are you ok?''

''I don't know'' she had another sharp pain ''Ahhh, Brock I think I'm labor'' she said holding her stomach

''Oh finally'' he said jumping off the couch and helping Reba up

''have you got my bag?'' she asked

''Yep, it's by the front door'' he replied as walked to pick it up ''You ready?'' he smiled

Reba nodded ''Yeah, I can't believe that we are finally going to meet baby Hart'' she said as she kissed Brock

''Let's go'' he said

Reba went to walk when she heard a splash ''Craaaaaaap my water just broke''


''Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!'' Reba screamed as she tried to pant through another contraction

''You are doing really well honey'' Brock said tucking Reba's hair behind her ear

Reba just looked at him she was having another contraction ''oooohhhhh'' she panted again

Dr George came into the room ''Hey guy's, how you doing?''

''In pain'' Reba said as her contraction finished

''Well let's see how dilated you are'' Dr George said putting her gloves on, she examined Reba ''7 cm's wow this baby sure does want to come out'' she said as she took the glove off and through it in the bin. ''It shouldn't be to long now i'll be back in 30 minutes to check''

Reba nodded then she had another contraction she grabbed Brock's hand and squeezed it tight ''Oh Brock I don't think I can do this'' she said as she was having a contraction.

''You can do it honey, I know you can'' he said and kissed her head ''You are so beautiful Reba Nell''

Reba smiled she had another contraction they were getting closer together now, and Reba had the sudden urge to push ''Brock I need to push''

''Honey don't push yet, wait for the doctor'' he said holding her hand

''I can't Brock, I really need to push'' she said trying t breath through the contraction

Brock ran to get the doctor luckily she was outside ''Dr George, I think she's ready''

Both Brock and the doctor returned to the delivery room ''Reba, Brock tell's me your ready to push?'' she said as she applied gloves and examining Reba.

''Yeah''

''Right well your 10 cm's. Right Reba i need you to listen very carefully when you feel another contraction I want you to push for ten seconds, OK?''

Reba nodded, soon after she felt another contraction ''I'm ready'' she said

''Right Reba push''

She did as she was told and pushed and Brock counted to 10

''Right I want you to do the same thing with the next contraction''

So Reba pushed again. Brock could tell how much pain she was in by the way she squeezed his hand because it felt like she was going to break his ''Good job honey you are doing so well''

''Good girl Reba, right on the next push I need it to be a bit longer, ok just as the head is close''

Reba nodded

''Ok push''

Reba did as she was told ''Oh my gosh you don't know how much this hurts' right now!'' she screamed and carried on pushing

''Right the head's out, Brock come here, there's your babies head'' the doctor smiled

''wow the baby, has hair like Kyra did when she was born'' Brock became a little emotional

''Reba one more push and the baby will be out''

She was crying she'd forgotten how much child birth hurt ''Ok''

''Push''

Reba pushed with all her might until she heard the baby cry, she gasped and collapsed on the bed

''Look'' the doctor said ''Showing them the baby''

''It's a girl Brock, we have a little girl, look she's so small'' she cried tears of joy

''I'm just gonna go clean her up a little bit ok''

''Be careful with her'' Reba said

She looked at Brock and smiled ''We did it''

''I know, god Reba I'm so proud of you'' he said and kissed her on the lips

The doctor came back with a screaming but tiny baby ''Congratulations guy's 5lbs 13 oz'' she passed her to Reba.

Reba took the baby from the doctor ''Hi baby, you finally decided to come out then'' Reba giggled as she was crying, she played with her little fingers and toes ''Brock she's tiny'' she said looking at him

''Yeah and she's beautiful, welcome to the world baby'' Brock stroked her little head and kissed

''Do we have a name for bay Hart?'' the Dr asked

''Shelby'' Reba replied ''Shelby Leigh Hart''

The doctor smiled and left the new parents to it.

Reba kissed Shelby on the head ''Perfect''

She then looked at Brock ''Thank you''

Brock looked at her ''For what?''

''For giving me a beautiful baby girl'' she smiled

''Your welcome''

Reba kissed him on the mouth and sighed a happy sigh today was the happiest day of her life.
