~~~~~~~~~~~Story: It has been about a year since your pet Brody/Max/Maggie arrived and the DW finds herself pregnant. Was she suprised? How far was she when she found out? Were they trying for a baby? How does she tell the DH? How does he react? Does Brody/Max/Maggie sense that something is up? How do they tell the family? How does the family react? How far along was the DW when she told the family? Have they started talking names? Do they each have a gender preference? An extra question: What are the occupations of your DH & DW(Just a quick note... There will be one more round before the baby is born, baby will be born in round four. Please let me know if they want to find out the gender. I will post the next round as soon as you all finish this one)

Greg and Jaden have been very busy with their careers. Greg became an assistant athletic trainer for a local college, and his workload increased tremendously. Jaden loves her work at the pediatric clinic. Both of them have been lavishing Max is love, but were still hoping to have a baby soon. Well, a few months ago Jaden started feeling ill in the mornings. At first, she suspected that she had a touch of the flu--after all, she did work around sick children all day. After almost two weeks of feeling sick, one of her coworkers convinced her to take a pregnancy test. Jaden did and was elated to learn that she was pregnant! She scheduled a doctor's appointment for the same afternoon and confirmed her test results. Jaden told Greg about the baby that night at dinner, and Greg was surprised at first, but then was excited. Right away he started renovating the small bedroom into a nursery (formerly it was used for storage). Greg and Jaden managed to keep the pregnancy a secret until the nursery was painted. At a family party, Jaden asked her mother if she could use the baby crib that she had. Her mother knew right away what Jaden was implying. The whole family is excited about the arrival of Greg and Jaden's first child! Now that she is six months along, Greg and Jaden have started thinking about names--and genders. They've both agreed that they'd really like a son first--Greg because he could carry on the family name, and Jaden because she grew up around sisters and wants to raise a boy. As for names, both Greg and Jaden have similar name preferences. The don't like the overwhelmingly popular names and are fond of uncommon biblical names and classic English names that aren't used often anymore. Greg and Jaden don't want to find out the gender of their baby--they want their first to be a surprise.
Greg is an assistant athletic trainer at a local college.
Jaden is a registered nurse who works at a pediatric clinic. She is thinking about becoming a full-time mother once the baby is born, but hasn't decided yet.

I hadn't been feeling well for a while and the thought had occured to me to take a pregnancy test. Well it came up positive and I was shocked to learn that my suspicions were right and I was indeed pregnant. When Jeff walked in the door later that day I blurted out "I'm pregnant!!!!" Jeff looked at me for a while "Are you sure?" He asked, but didn't wait for a reply. He swooped me into a hug and I began to sob. "Why are you crying?" He asked me, "You want a baby don't you?" I nodded "I just... Don't know why I'm crying..." Then Maggie strolled into the room, I bent over to pick her up and she hissed at me "What (sniffle sniffle) is the matter with her?" I whined. Jeff laughed, "I think someone isn't too happy about getting a new brother or sister!" I smiled. Jeff always knew how to make me laugh. "Don't worry Maggz (sniffle sniffle) according to the calendar I'm only 5 weeks along, It will be a while before your little brother or sister will come" About 5 weeks later.... I was very nervous about telling my family about this pregnancy. It would be the first grandchild on my side of the family. On Jeff's side, it was a different story. His sister Hannah had two kids; A 5 year old named Alessandro and a 2 year old named Gabriela. As we were on our way to see my parents my nervous began spilling all over the side of the road. "It's going to be okay" Jeff said trying to comfort me. When I was finally ready to get back in the car it was getting dark. About half an hour later we arrived at my parents house over an hour late. "Where have you been?" My mother asked worriedly. "We were on the road." I answered. "For that long?" She asked and Jeff cut in "We had to make some pitstops, so where is everyone?" He asked. My brother Timothy and sister Elizabeth should have been their already along with Tim's girlfriend Laura and Ellie's boyfriend Tyler. "Didn't they tell you they weren't going to make it? Anyways what does it matter, you don't like Laura anyways..." I sighed knowing the part about Laura was true.

DW: Avery Jude "Avy" [Roswell] (27)DDog: Maggie ("Maggot") (Female) (could the NN be kept, since Raff still calls her Maggot, while Evy always says Maggie?)Avy started getting sick and Raff urged her to go to a doctor, because she had been sick for two weeks straight already. At the doctor she did a pregnancy test and that how they found out they were going to have a baby. Raff was pretty upset, since he didn't want to be a father yet, but Avy was excited about it. Although she was upset that Raff wasn't excited at all. For a couple of weeks after they found out, it's been incredibly awkward around the house. Even Maggie was upset, howling the whole time. The awkwardness ended in a big fight where Raff declared that he did NOT want to be a dad, and she declared that there was NO WAY she'd have an abortion. One thing they did agree on was that they wanted to stay together though. The next day Raff told Avy that if she really wanted to have this baby that he would accept her choice and be a good father for the baby. Avy realized that Raff really felt upset about having another baby and really appreciated that he chose to stay and be a father. Avy wanted to tell both their parents together and invite them over for dinner, when she realized that she hadn't even met Raff's parents yet, and he never talked about them either. She asked him about it and he said that it wouldn't be necessary to tell them, since his mother was dead and he hadn't seen his father in years. She asked why he hadn't seen him, but he refused to tell her what had happened. They did invite Avy's parents over and told them. They were very excited, since this would be their first grandchild. They still don't particularly approve of Raff (they think working nights at a bar is not a proper job and don't see him as a very stable guy), but now that they're having a baby, they are slowly starting to get used to the fact that Raff is really here to stay. When her parents had left, Raff and Avy started talking about names. Raff really wants a boy to be called Fabian and a girl to be named after his mother. Avy thinks that that is okay. She likes the idea of naming a boy after Raff and she doesn't feel like she can argue with him naming a girl after his deceased mother. She would like to honour her parents though, if possible.They want to find out the sex of the baby, Raff is hoping for a boy and Avy is hoping for a girl.

DW: Dakota Murray "Kody" [O'Riley] (25)DCat: Brody (Male)Ever since the night Oliver and Kody made up, things have been looking better. Brody has his own room upstairs, mostly because Oliver and Kody were thinking about getting a puppy soon. That and Kody's goddaughter and cousin, her goddaughter's mother, are both allergic to cats. They have yet to get a dog, though. They both have been busy with work, Oliver with his carpentry that leaves him exhausted but satisfied, and Kody with her would as a pediatric nurse while she completes her residency to because a full time pediatrician. She had been stressed out as of late, which was why she wasn't one hundred ercent worried when she skipped. But when she skipped another time, she went to her doctor and took a pregnancy test. Five days later, it was official, Kody was pregnant! She was so happy, but she was sure Oliver wouldn't be. When he asked how the doctor's visit went she said fine. He didn't know why she had gone to the doctor's. Truth be told she was very afraid of telling him. She finally broke, about a week after she found out, blurting it out through an eerily silent dinner. Kody never did well with silence. Oliver had just looked at her for a moment, before a large grin broke out on his face, causing his dark brown eyes to crinkle in delight. In truth, she was sure he wasn't trying, but she knew for a fact that she wanted a child. She planned that she wanted to be married by 23, which she was, and have her first child by 24. She was already behind by one year. Not that her plan was really going to work, because he plan involved five children, not two, but she'll push that aside. Or, at least try to. Brody was being extra clingy to Kody too. Maybe he knew that soon enough he wouldn't be the center of attention. Oliver and Kody decide to throw a small, family get-together in order to tell the good news. Everyone seems thrilled at the fact that another little buddle of joy is going to be added to their already large family. By mouth the word spreads throughout their both equally large families. As Kody was only three months along, she decided not to talk names yet, figuring Oliver really didn't care much. She already knew he liked the name Luke, which she could work with. She personally loved the name Lucas. She personally wants a boy first, but Oliver, surprisingly, wants a girl. They decided to keep the gender a mystery until the baby was born.
