I FULLY APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INACCURACIES IN THIS CHAPTER!

I'M ALSO SORRY FOR ANY PAIN CAUSED BECUSE OF THIS CHAPTER

*Time skip - Louis is now 29 weeks/7 months pregnant*

(Short and somewhat proof read chapter up ahead)

The past few months had gone by fairly quickly, it now just hitting the final day of January.

Since he had passed the twenty week mark, Louis had been seeing his doctor nearly every week - just to make sure baby was okay.

There were quite a few concerns with growth for the baby, as they had barely made any progress from a checkup two weeks ago. Plus with the fact that louis' doctor announced that the baby had looked to be in minor distress; however, it didn't look to be too worrisome at the time.

After another weekly visit yesterday, and things still not looking right. He was sent to the maternity ward at the local hospital, where they'd be able to closely monitor him and baby.

Things were looking okay, baby seemed to be doing well and wasn't in distress, and Louis was doing great too.

And then, things drastically changed. The baby's heart rate began to drop immensely, the sound of the fetal monitor beeping and footsteps of multiple doctors and nurses rushing in was the only thing he could hear.

He suddenly began to feel quite hot and clammy, almost as if he was going to faint. An oxygen mask was placed over his face and connected to a portable machine, as his bed started to be wheeled out of the room in an emergent pace.

"W-what's happening," Harry frantically questioned, standing up from the chair next to Louis' bedside.

"Sir, the baby is in immediate distress. We have to prepare for an emergency c-section." A nurse answered.

"But it's too early," Harry protested, rushing after them as Louis' bed was pushed down the halls. A collection of protective and sterile clothes was thrown at Harry, as a nurse yelled for him to quickly change into those.

"We understand, Sir. However we're going to do everything we can to make sure your partner and baby survive this."

Multiple medical lingual was being shouted as they rushed Louis into an operating theatre. Harry rushed towards Louis' side grasping his hand.

"I'm here, baby, I promise," he assured, moving Louis' fringe out of his face.

"H-Harry," he stuttered, "I'm scared."

"I know, Lou. Trust me, I am too. But we'll find away to get through this."

A low dosage of general anesthesia was administered to Louis via his iv line, and a blue protective sheet was put up just above his stomach. More monitors were attached to Louis, and the doctor soon announced that it was time to start the procedure.

Louis grasped Harry's hand when he heard the doctor ask for the scalpel. Another voice announced the incision had been made, making Louis grasp Harry's hand even tighter.

A few moments later the sound of a weak baby-cry could be heard as Harry peaked his head over the side of the curtain, staring in awe at the precious child in front of him.

His child.

His daughter

She was so fragile for this harmful world, but she was his.

After a nurse gave her a brief check, she was placed into a baby incubator and rushed off to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

"Girl, Lou," Harry blurred out, tears freely falling down his face.

"W-what?" Louis questioned groggily.

Harry took his hand, "The baby, hunny. It's a girl." Louis smiled as tears filled up in his eyes.

"How small is she?"

"She's quite small, I'm not gonna lie. But you and I both now that she'll make it through this."

Once Louis was stitched up he was wheeled to the recovery room, from there a nurse monitored his vitals cautiously - especially with the situation that happened before hand.

They were just getting settled back into Louis' assigned room when a nurse from the NICU had appeared, with a clipboard.

She went through the rules for if they wanted to see their child, congratulated them on the birth of their daughter, gave the new parents an update on her she was doing, and filled out 1-2 pages of paperwork with them.

"Have you decided a name for her yet? It's needed for her chart in the clinic."

Louis and Harry gave each other a knowing glance, before the younger lad began speaking. "Jellybean Rose Styles."
