Hadley POV

"Wake up honey. You have to get ready for your scan." My mum rubbed my back.

"Ok. What time is it?" I sat up and yawned. My hand instantly going to my flat stomach.

"It's 9:30. We have to leave by ten. Is that alright?"

"Yeah. I'll be down in twenty." I told her. My mum smiled at me then left my room.

When I got up, I went into my bathroom and turned on the water. Once I stripped, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror.

I looked more, and what I saw brought tears to my eyes. There was a small baby bump. It wasn't to noticeable but it was there.

After a while of looking, I finally got into the shower to wash my hair and body. When I was done, I changed into a pair of dark blue jeans with a red wooly jumper.

"Ready to go? We'll be getting McDonald's breakfast on the way." My dad smiled at me.

"Yeah. I ready. Wait though. Mum is this normal?" I asked her, lifting up my jumper to show her my small bump.

I had on a tight vest top so it was kind of noticeable.

She smiled and gave me a soft expression. "Yes honey. Everything is perfectly fine. It's a good size for the amount of weeks you are."

I nodded then we left. Like my dad said, well all got McDonald's breakfast. After we ate, we went to the clinic for my appointment.

"Hadley Taylor?" The nurse called me.

"Who do you want to go with you sweetheart?" My mum asked me.

"Please don't choose me." I heard my dad beg in a whisper.

"Papá por favor ven conmigo." I smiled menacingly at him.
(Dad please come with me)

"Fine." He rolled his eyes and stood up.

"We can have both of you in if you really want." The nurse smiled at us.

My mum smiled then got up. We all followed her into a room where she told me to lay on the bed and my parents on the chairs next to me.

"The midwife will be here in a minute. She'll talk to you all about what you need to know." The nurse told me then left.

After a minute, a man walked in. He smiled at me and my parents before coming to my side.

"You must be Hadley. I'm Jackson and I'll be your midwife throughout your pregnancy." He shook my hand.

"Yeah, nice to meet you. This is my mum and dad, Aaron and Stacey." I replied.

"Perfect. Is this what all scans are going to be like? Or will I be meeting a baby daddy?"

"Uh no. It's only me and my parents. I haven't told him yet, so you can expect us three at all times."

"Yep that's fine. Now let's get started." Jackson smiled.

Jackson took my blood and urine sample. After that, he told me to lay on the bed again and lift up my vest, since I took off my jumper for the blood.
(A/N I have never been pregnant before so I don't know what happens at a first scan.)

"Good size Hadley. Must be a very healthy baby if they are making an appearance now." Jackson told me. "This is going to be cold but it'll pass."

I nodded then lifted up my vest. Jackson then unbuttoned my jeans and pulled them down a little. My heart beat went up until he put the gel on and a wand thingy.

"Don't worry Hadley. The baby is down low so I have to. But do tell someone if you feel uncomfortable with me and we'll get a female midwife to come in." Jackson looked down at me apologetically.

"No, no it's ok. It just took me by surprise. I haven't done much research and I just guessed the baby was higher up." I shook my head.

"Ok. Just make sure to tell me if you do get uncomfortable. I don't want to cause any trouble." He told me then picked up a want thing and started moving it across the gel.

"Alright, would you like to have a look?" He asked me.

I nodded then he turned the screen for me to look. And straight away, I saw it. My baby, the small life I created.

"Would you like to hear the heartbeat?"

I nodded again and a thumping sound came up. Tears fell from my eyes with a smile on my face. I love it already.

"I'll be back with pictures." Jackson smiled, he gave me a wipe then left the room.

I wiped the gel off my belly then sat on the bed with my feet dangling down. My mum was like me and my dad had a huge smile on his face.

After a few minutes, Jackson came back with the pictures. I said thank you and goodbye then we all left.

"What do you wanna do now kiddo? Baby shopping? Get you maternity clothes since you're already showing?" My dad asked me.

"Can we get maternity clothes. I want to wait until I know the gender before buying clothes for him or her." I rubbed my small bump.

"Of course. Then we'll go out for lunch after that." My mum said. Me and my dad agreed then went to the shopping centre to get me clothes.

This is why I love my mum and dad. They are so understanding and loving. And that is how I'll treat my baby, with love and support the no matter what they do.
