1 Vanessa’s POV
Trying to keep a secret from my husband is difficult, we tell each other everything, so avoiding telling him my contractions have started is damn near impossible. After a whispered cell phone conversation with my doctor, we agreed it’s too soon to come in based on the timing of my contractions. But I know when I tell Teddy they’ve started he’ll insist on going to the hospital anyway. The last thing I want to do is get turned away or labor unnecessarily in the hospital when I could be in the comfort of our cozy apartment.
Rubbing my hand over my stomach, I say to my child, “We’re so excited to meet you.”
