Three hours later
My pager went off and I went to meet Addison in the Attending's lounge. She was waiting for me with my test results in her hand when I came in.
"So what's the verdict?" I asked.
"Callie, you are five weeks pregnant." Addison told me. I nodded and sat down on the couch.
"So I'm really pregnant again?" I asked rubbing my stomach. Addison nodded. I smiled. "This is awesome, Mark is going to be so excited." I said. Addison smiled.
"I'm glad that this is something you guys want." Addison said and sat down next to me. I nodded.
"Me too. When I first started thinking I was pregnant I was concerned Mark wouldn't want another kid, but this morning he caught me getting sick and I told him I thought I was pregnant he looked so happy." I told her. Addison smiled.
"You should go tell him." Addison told me. I nodded and stood up from the couch.
"I'm going to go do that right now. Thanks Addie. Hey, how's Jacob?" I asked before I exited the room. Addison smiled.
"He's awesome." She told me. I smiled and left. I found Mark leaning up against the surgical floor's nurse's station. I smiled and wrapped my arms around him from before.
"Hey handsome." I whispered in his ear. He smiled and turned around. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed me on the lips.
"Hey beautiful." He said when he pulled away from the kiss.
"I have something to tell you." I began.
"Yeah?" Mark asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah. I'm pregnant Mark." I told him. Mark grinned and pulled me into a kiss.
"That is awesome." He whispered.
Three weeks later
Whitney shifted uncomfortably on the couch.
"Mommy, when can I go play again?" She asked impatiently.
"When Dr. Bailey gives you the go ahead. But until then you need to stay on the couch and watch TV or color." I told her and sat a plate of chicken nuggets on the TV tray in front of her. Whitney sighed and moved to sit up in front of the tray.
"When I go ba to Dr. Baiwey?" She asked and took a bite of a chicken nugget.
"Tomorrow. Do you want some more juice Whit Whit?" I asked. Whitney nodded.
"Apple pwease momma." Whitney said and handed me her cup. I nodded and went into the kitchen. Alex walked in while I was filing her cup. He kissed me on the cheek.
"Hey babe, how are Whitney and Toby today?" He asked.
"Toby's great the arm isn't bothering him at all; he acts like the cast isn't even there at all. Whitney's growing impatient; I hope Dr. Bailey gives her the go ahead tomorrow. I'm dying to get her back to the day care center; I need to cut someone open." I said and put the lid on Whitney's sippy cup. Alex nodded.
"You're super mom, you can make it." Alex encouraged and kissed me on the lips. I smiled, and kissed him back. We started making out and Alex's hands started to make their way up my shirt.
"Momma! Where my juice?" Whitney yelled from the living room. I sighed and pulled away.
"Sorry Alex, super mom's got to go." I said and walked into the living room with Whitney's cup. I sat it down on the TV tray.
"Sorry Whit Whit, mommy got a bit distracted." I said and kissed her forehead. "Everything taste good?" I asked. Whitney nodded and bit into another chicken nugget.
"It yummy." She told me. I smiled.
"Good." I said and walked back into the kitchen. Alex was leaned against the counter reading the paper. He smiled and stopped reading when he saw me.
"Hey sexy." He smirked.
"Alex." I said annoyed. He laughed and put the paper down.
"What do you say you and I finish off where we ended later tonight?" Alex asked. I smiled.
"Sounds awesome." I said. Toby and Kimberly ran into the kitchen and dropped their bags by the door.
"I beat you!" Toby smirked.
"Only because you pushed me." Kimberly whined. I smiled.
"Hey Kimmy cub, how was school?" I asked. Kimberly smiled.
"It was fun! We finished the alphabet! I know all the letters now." Kimberly stated proudly.
"Awesome, high five!" I said holding out my hand for her. She slapped it.
"What about you Toe?" I asked. Toby shrugged.
"It was pretty fun, would be more fun if I could participate at recess." Toby said and picked at the design on his shirt.
"You'll get it off soon Toe fungus." Alex joked. Toby giggled.
"Don't call me that." He said. Alex smiled and ruffled his hair.
"Force of habit, sorry toe fungus." He said.
"Dad." Toby said annoyed. Alex grinned and picked Toby up and threw him over his shoulder. Toby laughed. "Stop it, stop it." Toby said between laughs. Alex smiled and put him down.
"Go do your homework and then I'll take you and Zach Attack to the lake." Alex told Toby. Toby nodded and ran off upstairs. I smiled, Alex was so great with the kids.
"The lake huh?" I asked. Alex nodded.
"Yeah, kid earned it." Alex told me.
"Still going to be back in time to finish things?" I asked. Alex grinned and nodded.
"Most definitely." He said and kissed me again.

Next day 1 am.
I groaned and finished emptying the contents of last night's dinner from my stomach. Mark sighed and rubbed my back.
"When does the morning sickness end again?" Mark asked.
"Around week thirteen." I told him and leaned back against him. Mark sighed and pushed my bangs out of my eyes.
"Cal, that's five more weeks. I hate seeing you like this." Mark said sadly. I groaned and leaned forward to throw up again. Teylon came in.
"Momma are you okay?" He asked. I sighed and leaned back against Mark.
"Yeah Tey, I'm okay." I told him.
"You don't look okay. Is you going to have surgery like Whit?" Teylon asked. Mark laughed.
"No bud, she's okay. Just a little bug. Go back to sleep." Mark told him. Teylon nodded.
"Okay, night momma. Feel better." Teylon said and left the bathroom.
"We have to tell them soon." I said. Mark nodded.
"We will soon." He promised. I sighed and stared up at the ceiling.
"I think I'm done." I told him. Mark nodded and slowly helped me stand. I sighed and wandered back into the bedroom. I slowly climbed into bed and pulled the covers up to my chin. Mark sighed and flopped down into bed next to me. He wrapped his arms around me from behind and rested his hands on my stomach. He then rubbed gentle circles on my stomach.
"You know you kind of have a bump already." Mark remarked. I smiled weakly.
"You show more after you've been pregnant a few times." I reminded him. He nodded.
"Right, sorry. I forgot. It's weird, we're like the only couple who hasn't had multiples yet." Mark remarked. I groaned.
"Mark, shut up." I said. Mark laughed.
"Awh come on." He teased.
"I'm not wishing for twins." I said sternly. Mark sighed.
"Fine." He said and continued to rub circles on my stomach. I smiled and drifted off to sleep.
