Life As We Know It

Prologue Pt. 3

Kitty POV

TW: This chapter contains explicit scenes of teen pregnancy.

“Well, Katarina from the looks of it you seem to be about 17 weeks along and everything seems to look good. I would like to see you back in two weeks.” Dr. Goodwin says as she writes in my file.

“Why so soon?” I ask worried as I put hand on my stomach protectively.

“It’s nothing wrong with the baby we just like to take precautions with expecting mothers who have been through trauma during the pregnancy or during the conception of the baby.”

“Oh, okay. Well, when can I hear the heartbeat?” I asked as I got my things ready so I could leave.

“You should be able to hear it at the next visit of you want.” Dr. Goodwin says.

“Okay, see you in a couple of weeks Dr. Goodwin.” I say walking out of the exam room.

“Bye, Tammy. See you next time.” I say to the receptionist as I walk over to Mrs. Kathy.

The next two weeks go by fairly fast and soon me, Olivia, and Mrs. Kathy are back on our way to Dr. Goodwin’s office for my next check-up.

“Hi, Tammy.” I say walking into the office. “How are you doing today?”

“I’m doing pretty good, and you?” She asks.

“Today’s been good, no morning sickness so far so that’s good.” I reply.

“Well there is your baby’s heartbeat.” Dr. Goodwin says as a fast-paced womph-womph sounds throughout the room.

“That’s my baby?” I ask tearing up while looking at the screen of the ultrasound.

“Yep. Oh wait, there are your babies!” She exclaims.

“Wait, babies… as in more than one?” I yell.

“Yep, your having twins! Do you want to know what you’re having.” She asks

“Can I?” I beam.

“It looks like you are having …. twin girls!!” She declares.

“Yay, I have always wanted a daughter!” I tell her.

~~ 5 months later ~~

“Oh my god.” I gasp as a sharp pain grips me as I’m sitting on the couch.

“What’s wrong, Kitty!” Livvy and Mrs. Kathy asks as they rush over to me.

“I think my water just broke.” I state feeling a wet sensation on my legs.

“Let’s get you to the hospital. Olivia, get her go bag and the baby bag, please.” Mrs. Kathy says.

“OK, Mom I’ll meet you guys at the car.” Liv yells as she runs to get the bags.

~~ 17 long, painful hours later ~~

“AHHHHHHHHHH!!” I scream as another contraction hits. “Why does this hurt so f*****g bad!”

“Its ok, baby. We are right here. You got this honey.” Mrs. Kathy tells me.

“Hi, Kat. Let’s check to see how far you have progressed. Looks like you are ready to start pushing.” Dr. Goodwin tells me. “I want you to start pushing when the next contraction hits, okay.”

“I CAN’T!!” I say crying.

“Yes, you can. Now PUSH!” She says.

~~ 2 hours later ~~

“You have two beautiful, healthy little girls. What are you going to name them.” Dr. Goodwin asks me as she hands me my babies.

“Well, the oldest I think I’m going to name Savannah Eliza Jackson. And her sister’s name is Abigail Paige Jackson.” I say with pride, beaming down at my two beautiful daughters.
