The Cheating Millionaire

Chapter 7 giving birth

SEAN'S POV

As summer hung up the phone I was already driving to the hospital.

"Summer it will be okay, I will make sure it will be okay I promise" I say.

She starts crying, "you don't know that your not midwife or doctor! You just own malls and night clubs" she says.

"Summer I know it's early for our daughter to arrive but we have to have faith in the doctors and medical staff like my mum said." I say.

"What If something goes wrong? I can't live without my baby" Summer says crys.

"Summer you can't think that way, I believe your both be fine. Your hold our baby in your arms soon and you will be an amazing mother! I know you will because your the most amazing person I know." Summer says.

"I can't do this, the pregnancy has been hard enough I can't do labour, not yet she has to stay in." Summer says.

"Yes you can. I believe you can and you won't be alone I'm here with you right now, as so long as you let me I will stay with you. You can scream, shout, hit me do whatever you want to help you get through this and my mum will be there as well. Your not alone and you can do this. You managed the pregnancy all alone like a super star your handle labour just as well." I say.

"But she is already small and now she is coming early, it wasn't ment to be like this why does everything go wrong?" Summer says.

"What else went wrong?" I ask worried there's something else wrong with our daughter.

"You went wrong you. I should of been happily married having a family life, now I'm going to be a single mother and even this can't go right! I can't even keep her in until the due date." Summer says and I can hear the anger directed at me at me through her voice.

"Summer, I'm sorry but I'm here now" I say. It's the only thing I can think to say. She is right and scared hell even I'm scared right now I think to myself as we pull into the hospital.

"Okay we are here let me help you out." I say turning the car off.

"No, give me a minute" she says holding her stomach.

I take her free hand into my hands.

"It's okay, I'm not going anywhere take as long as you need." I say.

"You won't leave me before your mum comes will you?" summer suddenly ask.

"No, I will stay as long as your let me stay." I say.

"Okay, that one has passed let's go in" summer says.

I hurry out the car to go help Summer out the car.

"Don't forget the hospital bag" she says.

I get the hospital bag carrying it in one arm while I hold out my other arm to summer for support.

SUMMERS POV

I walk into labour ward holding onto Sean's arm for support. The concractions are every 6ish minutes apart now and more intense.

Once we reach the desk I see a nurse sitting behind it and looks up from the computer.

"I'm Summer Ballard, I called not long ago" I say.

"Ah we have been waiting for you, please. follow me and I will take you to your room. Your lucky Dr Smith is working tonight and is getting the room ready for your arrival" the nurse says.

"Thanks" says Sean as he feels me dig my nails into him getting through enougher contraction.

Once it passes we follow the nurse who must of realised I was having a contraction up to my labour room.

"Hi summer" Dr Smith says as soon as she sees me

"Hi" I say.

"I didnt expect to see you so soon." Dr Smith says.

"I didn't expect to see you this early either. Will she be alright?" I ask starting to cry again.

"She will be fine although she is growing on the smaller side she is developed enough. We should expect a baby between 4-5 pounds. But don't worry I promise it will be okay." Dr Smith says.

"Thankyou" I say wipping my tears away.

"Okay if you could get changed into a gown, I will then be able to see how far along you are in labour" she says passes me the gown.

"Dad it would be best if you help Summer with her shoes." Dr Smith says.

I sit on the edge of the bed and allow Sean to take my shoes off.

"How far apart are the contractions Summer?" Dr Smith says.

"Roughly 6 minutes apart. When they first started I thought it was braxton hicks again and they were roughly 8 minutes apart then." I say.

"When was that?" She asks.

"Around 12:15pm" I say.

"And when did your waters break?" Dr Smith asks.

"Around 4:50pm" Sean says.

Once Sean has taken my shoes off I tell him to turn around so I can get changed.

The Dr helps me put the gown on as enougher contraction strikes.

"God there getting painful" I say once it passes.

"Okay lay on the bed Summer." Dr Smith says.

Sean then comes help me onto the bed.

"Keep your head up this end otherwise your be feeling what I'm feeling on your d**k" I say

"Alright I will" Sean says with wide eyes.

"Okay are you ready for me to check how dilated you are?" The Dr asks

"Just wait a moment enougher one is coming" I say.

"Summer I'm timing your contractions to be 4 minutes apart. I don't think it will be long if your dilating as fast as your contractions are progressing" she says.

"You mean the baby could be here tonight?" Sean's asks.

"I reckon so it's only 6:25pm now" the Dr says

"Okay I'm ready" I say once the contracton passed.

While the Dr is doing her examination I can't help but moan as it's uncomfortable.

"That isn't comfortable" I say as 8 get my bearings in the cramps.

"I know I'm nearly done a few more seconds." Dr Smith says.

I grab Sean's arm trying to focus on anything else.

"Good news summer your already 8 and half cms dilated. Your baby will be here real soon, would you like something for the pain?" Dr Smith asks.

"No I've come this far I will try the rest naturally" I say.

"I told you! you can do it" Sean says.

"Ahh Where's your mum?" I say through gritted teeth as enougher contraction strikes.

"I don't know, I'm sure she will be here soon." Sean says.

Once it passes I ask Sean to pass me my phone

I ring my mum

RING RING RING RIN

"Honey how's it going? We have 3 hours until our plane" my mum says answering the phone

"Mum stay on the phone with me I'm 8 and a half cms dilated" I say wanting my mum.

"Wow little princess is in a hurry to meet you sweetie." My mum says.

"Ahh! mum it hurts" I say through gritted teeth as enougher contraction strikes

I press the loud speaker button and place my phone on the bed

"Summer breath through it like we did in the antinatal classes." My mum says

"Deep breath in annnnd out" my mum says

"It's passing." I say.

"Who's there with you?" My mum asks.

"I am and my mum is on her way" Sean says.

"Mum is Simon on his way?" I ask before she has a chance to answer Sean.

"Yes I rang Simon and he said he would come straight down after he showered. Infact he should be with you in around 2-3 hours." My mum says.

"Thank god" I say.

"Sweetie our taxi just arrived message me when lil princess has arrived. If we are not on the plane I will ring you. Okay?" My mum says.

"Okay mum hang up for me enougher one is coming" I say gripping Sean's arm again.

"Don't forget tp breath honey, we love you" then my mum hungs up.

"Okay after this contraction we will put a trace on you Summer" Dr Smith says

As the contraction passes.

"My second set of waters just went" I say as I feel the bed getting soaking wet taking the blanket of my legs.

"It's okay, I can change that. Here" she says getting enougher gown out of a draw.

"Thanks" I say

"Sean could you please" I say looking at him with pleading eyes knowing I'm so tired right now and scared of enougher contraction coming as I get off the bed. I don't want to fall to the floor.

"Of course I can, here let me help you off the bed first" he says

He helps me off the bed.

"Could you untie the back for me?" I ask holding onto his arms.

"You don't have to ask summer, just tell me what you need as you need it" Sean says moving a hand behind to untie the gown.

At that second enougher contraction strikes. "Ahh" I scream leaning into Sean.

"Come on you can do" Sean says stroking my hair then places a kiss on top of my head.

Once it's passed I quickly change the gown without even caring what way Sean is facing, I'm to tired to care anymore.

Just as I put the gown on Sean reaches his hands behind my back to tie the gown up. I rest my head against his chest since I'm tired.

"I've nearly finished putting clean sheets on the bed" Summer Dr Smith says.

"Okay, I will stay like this a second while I wait" I say closing my eyes.

"Your doing amazing Summer" Sean says.

Then Karen walks in just as enougher contractions strikes. "Ahh" I scream again as I use my hands gripping Sean's shirt to steady myself. Sean gently wraps his arms around my body not to tight but enough to keep me standing.

Karen comes stands next to us rubbing my back as the contraction starts to pass.

"How far dilated are you Karen?" asks as Sean Helps me back onto the bed.

"8 and a half cms dilated when we arrived" I say

"Not long left summer. I will stay here with you don't worry about a thing" she says taking my hand.

"Mum Summer is doing amazing, no pain relief and getting on with it like a warrior" Sean says.

"I'm not going into battle" I laugh although it hurts to laugh from the the contractions. But not as bad as the contractions.

"No your not, but your braver and stronger than any warrior" Sean says.

I don't know why but Sean seems to be keeping me sane which I least expected I suddenly think to myself.

As I look at Sean the next. Contraction strikes and I yank his arm while the crippling contraction takes over, I didn't even realise I had his arm pinned to the bed next to me until the contraction started to ease off.

"Well I'm glad I choose this side" Karen said.

"Sorry that one was strong" I say.

"Sean help me to the bathroom, I need to the loo now and I'm getting tired." I say

The Dr opens the bathroom door while Sean helps me to the bathroom.

As I'm going a loo I feel an a mighty urge to push

"Dr Smith" I shout

She comes running in

"Are you okay Summer?" Dr Smith asks

"I feel like I need to push" I say as a contraction strikes.

"Breath through it don't push yet just breath through it" Dr Smith says.

Then she helps me off the toilet once it's passed.

"Okay let's get you back to the bed so we can see what's going on Summer." Dr Smith says as Sean appears and helps me walk back from the bathroom. I lean my head on his shoulder as we walk back.

Once I'm half on the bed enougher contraction strikes with the urge to push again.

I grab Sean's arm for support.

"Breath through it Summer don't push breath in and out in and out" says Dr Smith.

"You can do this Summer! I know you can" says Sean.

After it's passed I get onto the bed.

"Okay let's quickly have a look" says Dr Smith.

"Your doing brilliant" Karen says.

I grab Sean's and Karen's hand knowing last time she checked I didn't like it.

"No, I feel the pushing urge coming" I say as Dr Smith just starts to check.

"Summer your fully dilated so push when the contraction hits push hard." Dr Smith says.

I feel the contracton hit and I push with all my might and it hurts like hell as I'm grunting through it.

"That's it summer push like that and keep going" Dr Smith says.

"You can do this baby" I hear Sean say

As the contraction passes and I stop pushing.

"You got some grip" Karen says smiling at me. And I feel bad for her crushed hand. Seans not so much.

"Do that again on the next contraction and the baby's head will be out Summer" Dr Smith says.

"Summer your have your baby in your arms very soon" says Karen smiling at me.

I feel enougher contraction strike and I start pushing again "Ahh" I scream gripping Seans and Karen's hands again.

"That's it Summer keep pushing" Dr Smith says. I grip Karen's and Sean's hand tighter as if they can give me energy to push harder while Im screaming. I can feel sweat on my forehead and then exhaustion as the contraction passes. And man that one really hurt I swear I felt movement and I pray there was some progress as I lay my head back against the pillow again.

"Baby's head is out, that's the hard bit done next contraction baby will be born" Dr Smith says.

"Well done baby" Sean says kissing my hand. And I really want to hell at him don't kiss me! But I'm to tired and want to save my enegery left for getting my baby girl born.

I close my eyes trying to gain energy. Someone wipes hair out of my face, I'm not sure who either Karen or Sean.

I then feel enougher contraction strike and I push with everything I've got because I need this over with I'm exhausted. "Ahh" I scream as I put everything I have remaining into pushing as hard as I can and then I feel the pressure gone as my baby girl slips out of my body.

I start crying with relief and joy the second I hear my baby cry.

"Congratulations your baby girl has arrived" says Dr Smith placing her on my chest and then a blanket over her little body.

"She just as perfect as you are" Sean says I look at Sean and can see him crying and I smile at him.

"Congratulations mummy and daddy" says Karen.

I smile at Karen. Then look back at my baby girl.

"She is tiny" I say.

"She is we will weigh her soon but she is perfectly healthy with them lungs" Dr Smith says.

"Who's cutting the cord summer?" Dr Smith adds on.

"Do you want to cut the cord?" I ask Sean looking at him. I figured he really did step up so he could do this small thing.

SEAN'S POV

"Yes please" I say looking at Summer smiling as if I won the lottery or something.

"Okay well you need to cut between these 2 bits here with these scizzors" Dr Smith says.

"Summer, she is so cute, I'm so proud of you sweetie" my mum says looking at Summer as I start cutting the cord "wow its stringer than I expected it to be" I say as I cut it. It looks like flesh that you could slice away easily buy its thick and strong" I say suddenly surpised by this.

"That's true indeed" Dr smiths says

"Okay, I'm going to give you a injection summer to help the plastena come away naturally" Dr Smith says.

"Okay," summer says while staring down at our baby girl who has fallen asleep now.

"Thankyou Summer" I say.

"It was just the cord" she says.

"No thankyou for giving me a daughter and giving me a chance to be here" I say before kissing her forehead.

"I will let you hold skylar soon, I just want a few more minutes first" Summer says.

"Aww that's a lovely name" my mum says.

"It's perfect" I say admiring Summer and Skylar.

"What time is it? what time was she born?" Summer asks

"9:06pm skylar arrived" says Dr Smith.

"Karen could you get my phone and ring my mum please, I may just make it before her flight" summer says.
