~ Zarkon ~

For the past week or so you felt as though something was 'off'. When your period hadn't come when it was supposed to and you felt queasy early in the morning, you decided to find out if you were pregnant or not. You and Zarkon had been intimate when Gatrea spent the night with her Dayak, so it wasn't like pregnancy wasn't a possibility. However, just to be sure, you went to visit Haggar while Zarkon was out having some father-daughter bonding time with Gatrea.

"What do the scans show?" You queried, sitting up on the examination table and pulling your shirt back down after Haggar scanned your lower abdomen.

"You're pregnant, my Empress; three weeks, to be exact. The kit seems to be in perfect health." Haggar answered, a soft smile on her face.

"That sounds about right. I'm glad that they're healthy." You commented, thinking for a moment.

Haggar saved the results on her holopad before putting it on one of the counters. She then proceeded to look through one of the drawers for a medication that would help ease any morning sickness that you experienced.

"This will help ease your morning sickness. Just put two drops in a glass of water when you feel ill." Haggar told you, offering out a bottle of liquid.

"Thank you." You said, thanking her as you took the bottle.

"It's my honor to serve you." Haggar said politely, helping you off of the examination table.

You felt a little dizzy as you were helped off of the table, but nothing too bad. You thanked Haggar again before leaving her office; you were glad that you visited her. With a husband like Zarkon, you knew that you would eventually get pregnant again. You couldn't wait to tell him that the two of you would be expecting another addition to your family. All you had to do now was tell him, and then you both would eventually tell Gatrea that she wasn't going to be an only child anymore.

~ Alfor ~

You and Alfor wanted to have another baby, but every time you both tried, and you took a pregnancy test, they were all negative. You both decided to take a break for a while, but at some point you both couldn't resist being intimate with each other. You both weren't even trying for a baby, but one morning, you woke up sick to your stomach and almost didn't make it to the bathroom in time. Alfor was there to help you, thinking that you were only sick and decided to take care of Lotarius for the day so that you could rest. While Alfor and Lotarius were out doing something in the Kingdom, you took the opportunity to take an at home pregnancy test.

Like with most pregnancy tests, you had to go without drinking for a while before you could actually take it. Things got a little messy when you took it, but you easily cleaned up after putting the plastic cap back on the correct end of the test. Waiting for the five minutes felt like pure torture and you kept glancing down at your phone. Finally, when the timer on your phone rang, you turned it off and picked the pregnancy test up, taking a deep breath before looking at it.

"I can't believe it… I'm pregnant. I'm actually pregnant again." You whispered to yourself, a smile spreading across your face.

After months of trying, you finally, finally got pregnant again. You shed a few tears of pure happiness; you were going to have another baby and you couldn't wait to tell your husband. Alfor wanted another baby just as much as you did, so he was definitely going to be overjoyed when you told him that you were pregnant again. You had to think of a good way to tell him, but you had a fairly good idea of how you were going to do it. All you had to worry about was breaking the news to Lotarius, hoping that he would take it well.

~ Blaytz ~

When you woke up one morning due to suddenly feeling sick to your stomach you rushed to the bathroom, Blaytz following you when he felt you quickly get out of bed. He helped you out in the bathroom and continued doing so for the next four mornings. Blaytz was worried and thought you were sick, but you had a feeling that it was something more than that. So, on the fourth day of being sick, you decided to take an at home pregnancy test. Blaytz was doing his Kingly duties and Iris was taking a nap in her bedroom, giving you the perfect chance to take a pregnancy test.

You felt a little dehydrated since you couldn't drink anything about four hours prior to taking the pregnancy test, but it would be worth it. You had to 'go' in a cup so that it would be easier for you to dip the tip of the pregnancy test in your urine, counting five seconds before removing the test from the cup and putting the plastic cap back on. So, while you waited for the results, you drank from a cup of fresh water. You knew that you would eventually have another baby, especially since you and Blaytz were still very active in the bedroom. When the timer on your phone went off, you stopped it and carefully picked up the pregnancy test; it was positive.

"Well then, it looks like I get to tell daddy about you." You said out loud, lifting your shirt and looking down at your lower abdomen, placing one of your hands over where your womb was.

It had been about two and a half weeks since you and Blaytz 'did it' last, so the fetus was still very tiny. You suddenly felt very excited to tell your husband that you were pregnant again. You dreaded going through childbirth again, but that was several months down the road. You opened the bathroom door and walked out, walking over to the bed and laying on it. You knew exactly how you were going to tell Blaytz that you were pregnant, but you had to figure out a way to tell Iris that she was going to be a big sister.

~ Gyrgan ~

Three and a half weeks after an exceptionally long and steamy night with your husband you started feeling more tired and irritable than normal; not only that, but your period was late. You didn't think much of it until you realized that you completely missed your period. You weren't sure if you were pregnant or not, so you decided that it would be a good idea to take an at home pregnancy test. Gyrgan was with Adu in the living room, so that gave you the opportunity to take the pregnancy test in peace. There was a high chance that you were pregnant, especially after you and Gyrgan 'did it' twice in one night.

Taking the pregnancy test was the easy part, but waiting for the results was a little stressful. It wasn't that you and Gyrgan didn't want to have any more children, but neither of you had mentioned it to each other. Gyrgan wasn't the kind of man who would get angry because of an unintended pregnancy, but you still couldn't help but feel a little nervous. You were a little startled when the timer on your phone suddenly went off, causing you to jump slightly. You quickly turned it off and picked up the pregnancy test, taking a good long look at it.

"Oh, okay, I'm pregnant." You casually said out loud to yourself, knowing that no one else was around to hear you speak.

It was official; you and Gyrgan would soon be welcoming a new member of your little family in about nine months. You smiled, briefly remembering the last time you told your husband that you would be pregnant. You decided to wait until after Adu was in bed to tell Gyrgan the exciting news, knowing that it would be a happy surprise for him. However, telling Adu that he was going to be a big brother was a completely different situation, one that you hoped he would take well.

~ Trigel ~

You and Trigel loved Astrid very much, but at some point you both wanted to have another baby together. Some time after Astrid turned three years old, you both decided that you would be the one to get pregnant again. The two of you met up with a different sperm donor and had the procedure done; it would only be a matter of time before you got pregnant. Roughly two weeks after the procedure you felt more tired than normal and you felt nauseous at night. So, one day Trigel brought a home pregnancy test for you to take.

Astrid was in her bedroom, playing with her toys while Trigel waited in her and your bedroom for you. You felt both nervous and excited, and a tad bit dehydrated, as you took the pregnancy test. Going three hours without drinking anything was hard, but at least you were able to drink afterwards. You only had to wait three minutes for the results, but those three minutes felt more like three hours. Finally, when the three minutes were up, you stopped the timer on your phone and picked up the pregnancy test, smiling when you saw that it was positive.

"Yes!" You quietly cheered, happy that the pregnancy took on the first try.

Now knowing that you were pregnant again, you suddenly felt a little emotional. You had another little person growing inside of you; a precious life that would come into the world in about nine months. Telling Trigel would be easy, but you were worried about how Astrid would react to the news of getting to be a big sister. You and Trigel would break the news to her when the time came, but for now, you were focused on just telling your wife. You finished drinking the fresh water in the cup that was on the counter, getting rehydrated before you opened the bathroom door.
