Ashley
I wake up in a maternity unit, I can feel my heart skip a beat as I look around. I remember being in the restaurant, going to the bathroom and seeing blood. What if I've lost my baby? I can't lose my baby! The door opened and Joe walked in, his eyes grew wide when he saw me sitting up.

"What's wrong with me Joe, don't give me any bullshit."

"They don't know yet..."

"I can't lose this baby, we can't!"

My voice is shaking as I speak.

"Hey hey, I know. They don't know what's wrong, if you'd lost our baby they'd know already. Just take a deep breath, I'll just press the nurse button so they can get underway with the scans."

"Please Joe~"

"I'm not going to leave you again okay?"

I nodded while wiping away some already escaped tears, I feel awful. I just want this to be over and for a little one to be okay. A nurse walks in with a ultrasound machine, I take Joe's hand in mine and I pull up my t-shirt.

"The gel will be a little cold."

She put it on and I flinched a little, my grip getting tighter on Joes hand in the process. She grabbed the stick and turned on the machine, I could feel my heart racing as she started to look for my baby.

"Ashley you need to relax for me, if your stressed baby is also stressed therefore making them harder to find."

I took a deep breath and titled my head slightly so I could see the screen and she started her scan. At first she couldn't see anything and I had to try and keep my cool then out of nowhere my little baby appeared on the screen, my tears streamed down my face as I looked at it.

"My baby's okay."

I whispered while looking at the screen.

"Do you want to hear the heartbeat?"

I nodded and she flicked a button, then we could hear the heartbeat. My tears fell heavily down my face, my baby is okay. I haven't lost it~

"I can give you the gender if you'd like."

I looked at Joe and he nodded his head.

"Yes please..."

"It's a little boy..."

I squeezed Joes hand as I looked back at him.

"We're having a little boy."

He leant forward and kissed me head, I could feel his tears wet on my face as he did so.

"I love you Ashley~"

"I love you too Joe..."

"I'll clean you up and then I'll leave you guys to have a little talk."

She had a smile on her face as she wiped the gel off my tiny bump, after she was done I instinctively wrapped my hand around my bump. My little man is okay, I've still got him. After around five minutes a consultant walked in looking happy.

"Well Ms Fliehr I can confirm it's good news, originally we weren't so sure but we found the problem. Your placenta tried to detach itself from your inner womb lining, we've given you some drugs to help prevent it and also you should be on bed rest for two weeks to make sure it doesn't happen again."

"Was it my fault?"

"No, no. These things happen, but it's all good now. After your period of two weeks bed rest, we'd like to book you in for weekly appointments to avoid anything like this happening again."

She smiled at me as she wrote something down on her clipboard, a minute later she pulled the paper off and handed it to me.

"Here's your discharge papers, with any information you may need."

She stood up from the chair and left the room, I looked over at Joe and I felt him intertwine his hand with mine.

"He's Okay Ashley."

I could still see the tears in his eyes as he planted a kiss on my little bump.

"Maybe it'd be best if we postpone the wedding? Just until this little one is born?"

"As much as I don't want to, it might be for the best."

I smiled sadly at Joe as he kissed my forehead.

"For the next two weeks I'm going to be your servant! Anything you need I'll go get it for you."

He smiled at me as he spoke, he offered me his hand as I swung my legs over the bed to stand up. Once I was out of bed Joe had me sit in one of those hospital wheelchairs, he grabbed all my stuff and we began to leave the hospital. You know what maybe two weeks bedrest won't be as bad as I thought originally it was going to be...
