and stomach. I really don’t give a shit if he is gay or not. I will not let those sexy eyes look at my dry legs. Not much I can do about trimming up my bikini area. Note to self … store a razor in my purse for now on.
    Minutes go by before Ella, along with Dr. Dreamy, walk in with the machine. Ella is quietly giggling, because I am sure she can smell my sweet pea lotion all over me. Dr. Dreamy pulls out the stirrups and guides my feet into them. Oh my God my feet. Note to self … get a damn pedicure! He pulls the sheet up and over my knees so I won’t be able to see him. He tells me to relax and he pushes my knees apart further. I throw my arm over my head as this is the most humiliating moment of my life.
    He inserts his fingers in me. I feel I have been electrocuted in my vagina. I jolt off the table. He holds my hips down. “Elizabeth, sorry did I hurt you?”
    “Uhh … No, sorry … I’m good.” Ugh! I hear him pull the gloves off and tell me that my cervix looks great. He puts a condom on the trans-vaginal wand, and lubes it up with some gel. He turns the monitor so I can somewhat see. I notice he is very quiet and is having a hard time looking at me. I decide I am going to look at Ella’s face since I can tell more by her reaction then the black and white on the screen. He’s moving around and apologizes for the pressure. He keeps it still and pushes a bunch of buttons on the key board.
    I look to Ella and I see tears in her eyes. Oh shit, this isn’t good. I’m miscarrying. “Ella, what’s wrong?” As my voice constricts the words out. She looks to Dr. Alexander.
    He turns the monitor; he says “I can tell you, it isn’t bad. You are having growing pains at a rapid speed, because, Elizabeth, you are having triplets!” Ella plops down on me and cries and laughs at the same time. I am speechless and shocked. Dr. Alexander points to the three black holes on the screen and says that those are my babies. “Three babies, I am going to have three babies at one time?” I squeal. Oh Shit!!
    He puts his hands behind my neck and I feel like he shocked me, that lighting has stricken my veins. I get hot all of a sudden as he helps me up into a sitting position. “Well congratulations Elizabeth. This is some birthday, 3 babies for turning 30! “
    All I can do is smile and quietly say, “Yes, yes it is.”
    Dr. Alexander leans against the counter and is writing in my file. “Dr. Alexander, how come Dr. Wilson didn’t tell me this news last week? He saw the heartbeat. Meaning one, not three. Why?” I barely catch my breath as the words run out of my mouth.
    “Mrs. Thomas …”
    “Please call me Elizabeth.”
    “Alright, Elizabeth. Since I don’t have your records as of yet from Dr. Wilson, I can only assume that either the babies were hiding behind one another or he didn’t want to alarm you saying there were three. As soon as I have his notes, I can inform you why he didn’t tell you. I assure you he did this with best intentions whatever the reason.” He says with such grace and confidence. While placing his hands on his lean hips, he excuses Ella from the room.
    “I’m going to leave you to get dressed. Once you are done, I would like to talk to you in my office about your pregnancy and I have information to give you.
    Once I am dressed I open the door to see Ella leaning against the wall. “You OK?”
    “I’m good, just so much to take in at once.” I quietly say to her as I swing my purse on my shoulder.
    “Dr. Alexander’s Office is this way.” She says as she grabs my arm. “You know, Beth, that this is the Dr. Alexander that took care of you that week in the hospital, he’s the one that told me you were pregnant.”
    Nothing comes out of my mouth, I just nod at her. Once we are at his office the door is open and I see him at his desk. I give Ella a hug and tell her I will say good-bye before I leave.

 
     
    I couldn’t get out of that room fast enough. I’m sitting here trying
