Selena pov
Turning my head I look at Kian and see him focusing completely on the doctor when he walks over and takes a seat in the chair beside the bed.
"What is wrong?" Kian asks and I can hear how tense he is and I guess worried.
The Doctor takes another look at his papers before looking up at us.
"the iron in her blood is way too low and she immediately needs some blood into her system and better nutrition, or we have to fix a blood bag the next couple of days!" he says and looks at Kian.
"She will not have any other blood than mine! How much does she need?" he asks when the doctor takes another look at his papers and the nurse comes walking into the room and starts to fix the ultrasound.
"I suggest you start giving her yours every day till next week when we have her checkup, make sure she gets the right nutrition and we will take another look then. If it's not better then we have to come up with something else! This is way too early in the pregnancy and for those that it has happened to before it comes later on, I have to talk to my colleagues about it till the next time we meet!" he says and gets up from his chair, I have a hard time taking in his words when I feel Kian squeeze my hand.
"it explains why you have been dizzy and I guess extra tired!" he continues and I have been exhausted but thought it had to do with my long days.
"I only thought I was tired because of the long days and being awake from time to time during the nights, didn't think something where wrong with me!" I say and look at the doctor when I feel Kian closer to my side.
"why haven't you been sleeping properly?" he asks and looking up at him I see he is concerned, sighing I pull his hand closer to me.
"trouble sleeping a whole night when you haven't been by my side, usually sleep four hours a night!" I say and see him about to say something when the nurse pulls my shirt up before the doctor places the cold gel on my stomach and the room goes dark.
"we will talk about this when we are done here!" he says when I see our children on the screen kicking and going about it in my womb, I have felt small bumps but thought it was something else but now when I see them kick on the screen I feel it, like little butterflies in my stomach.
"do you want to know the gender? I might be able to see it?" the doctor asks and to me, I instantly want to know.
"yes, I want to know!" I say when the room falls silent and I turn my head to look at Kian, waiting for him to say how he wants it.
"yes!" he says after a while and he is focused on the screen, it takes a long moment before the doctor speaks up again.
"I believe this pregnancy will be over in less than four months, they are growing fast! If you are looking closely at baby A I believe it's a boy!" he says and I feel how tears prick behind my eyelids, we are expecting a little boy!
Seeing the doctor turn and look at the other baby when he zooms in on it closely for a long time.
"Well by the look of it baby B is a girl, I could be wrong about it!" he says and now there is no stopping my tears, I know it's a baby girl and she is the gifted one, I have no idea how I can know this but I just do! A sob leaves my lips when the nurse turns on the lights before wiping away the gel. I take my hand out of Kian's and wipe away my tears that keep falling.
Feeling him closer and take away my hands he leans down and kisses me on my forehead.
"We are having one of each!" he says and tilts my head before he gives me a hard kiss on my lips, didn't think I would get this emotional by knowing the gender.
