Chapter 3

"Mrs. Von-Wildenburg?" called the nurse from the door of the hospital.

"That's me" Torin said with a grin despite her nervousness.

"Follow me please." 

Torin followed behind the nurse as she walked her past the sign in desk and into the first room.

"Now what brings you in today?"

Torin hated these parts of doctor visits, actually she hated doctors visits period and after all her trouble previously she would have been happy never to see another one again but today was different. Her impatience wasn't because she had wanted to leave, Not this time.

This time she wanted them to take their time so that there was no mistaking the answer if they did in fact tell her she was pregnant.

"Well I recieved a positive pregnancy test and I wanted to get confirmation."

"and when did you recieve the positive."

"the first one was a week ago yesterday"

"when was your last period?"

"2 months ago, but I am typically irregular I have PCOS"

"I see, Have you been pregnant before?"

at this Torin hung her head.

"Yes, UH three times. That I know of."

"I am sorry to have to ask this because it sounds so insinsitive but-"

Torin knew what was coming.  "It's okay I understand, let me save you the trouble. all 3 known pregnancies ended in Miscarriage. all at various stages. the first was I was only 15 weeks and the second I was nearing the end of the 2nd trimester and the last was in the 3rd trimester. I guess you would call it still born because She had been developed." A few tears dropped out of her eyes as she said this.

"I am sorry for your loss, but thank you for that information it is important for how we handle your visit today."

"oh I remember having to explain the same thing during every appointment talking about it is sad but if it means that I can have a healthy pregnancy and baby then I'll write an entire book about it if it was nescary I have made my peace with it" Torin said with a small smile.

"That's one way to look at it, If you don't mind me saying your positivity is infectious"

Torin laughed. "I don't mind and Thank you that is a joy to hear."

After a few more questions and the typical triage routine, The nurse whose name Torin learned was Samantha, handed her a gown.

"Slip this on and the doctor will be right in, although just between us two she is a little backed up, would you like a magazine or something while you wait?"

"No, I have my phone I think I will be okay" Torin said

"Well the call button is on the wall behind you should you need some assistance."

"thank you" she said as Samantha walked out of the room.

Once she heard the door snap closed she did as she was told slipping on the gown and laying back down on the bed.
