Chapter 27- Welcome To The World

Phil arrived back in the delivery room and Sam was lying on the table. 'Did you get through?' Sam asked.

'Yeah, Abi's getting here as soon as she can and Francesca's on her way in now,' Phil replied.

'Thank you,' Sam replied as she took hold of Phil's hand.

Two hours later, Sam was fully dilated and was able to begin pushing. She was still keeping a tight grip on Phil's hand, who was whispering encouraging words in her ear. 'Right, I can see the head, keep pushing for me Sam,' the midwife said.

Sam was still gripping Phil's hand tightly and took a deep breath to prepare for the final pushes. 'Just one more push Sam,' the midwife said.

Sam took one deep breath and pushed for one last time. She heard the baby cry and smiled. She'd done it. Phil gently kissed her forehead as the nurse wrapped the baby in a blanket. 'You have a beautiful daughter,' the nurse said as she handed the bundle to Sam, while they cut the umbilical cord.

'She's beautiful,' Phil said as he kissed the top of his daughter's head. 'She really does take after you, with the looks.'

'I love you Phil,' Sam replied as she kissed him on the lips.

Once the umbilical cord had been cut, Sam passed their daughter to Phil. She had Sam's eyes but she had Phil's nose and mouth. The midwife took the baby after that and Phil went outside the delivery while the nurses cleaned Sam up.

Phil stepped outside the delivery room. Francesca was sat outside. 'What's happened?' she asked.

'It's a girl, you've got a niece,' Phil replied.

'Oh congratulations Phil,' Francesca said as she went to hug Phil. 'Did you ring Abi as well?

'Yeah, she's getting down here as soon as she can,'

'She'll be pleased,'

'I hope so; she's got a little sister,' Phil said as he pulled out of the hug.

Phil and Francesca eventually left the hospital at about 2 the next morning. Sam was asleep and so they thought they'd better go and get some sleep themselves. They got back to their house at about 2:30 and saw there were lights on in the living room. They went inside and Abi came to the door. 'Well?' she said.

'She's had a girl,' Phil replied.

'Awww, congratulations,'

'Thanks Abi,' Phil said as Abi hugged him.

Francesca went up to bed about half an hour later. Phil decided not to go to bed; he was too excited about the new arrival.

Phil, Abi and Francesca went back up the hospital at about 10 that morning. They found Sam sat up in bed; the baby was in the crib beside the bed when they entered. Phil was carrying a bouquet of flowers and kissed Sam softly on the lips. 'How are you?' he asked.

'Not too bad, just a bit sore,' Sam replied.

Phil went round to Francesca who was stood by the crib looking at her niece. Phil gently lifted his daughter out of the crib and sat on the bed beside Sam. 'We're gonna have to start thinking about a name,' he said.

'I was thinking, what do you think of Louisa?'

'Yeah, that sounds OK to me,'

'Louisa Jane Hunter, is that OK?'

'Course it is babe,' Phil said.

He looked at Sam, who smiled at him. He put his finger under her chin and lifted her head until their lips in a soft kiss.

Phil stood up and passed Louisa over to Abi. She absolutely loved her new sister. Francesca and Abi left about an hour and a half later, Francesca was going into the station to let everyone know. This left Phil and Sam on their own. Suddenly, Louisa began to cry.

'She's probably hungry,'

Phil passed Louisa over to Sam who put her against her breast and as she began to suckle, her crying stopped.

Sam was allowed home a couple of days later. Phil had taken paternity leave and was upstairs sorting out the cot when the doorbell rang. Sam took Louisa to the door to see who it was. It was Gina and Jo. 'I guess this is the new addition,' Jo said as she looked at the tiny bundle in Sam's arms.

'Yep, this is Louisa,' Sam replied.

Gina and Jo entered the house and shut the door behind them. 'We come bearing gifts,' Gina announced.

'Ooh, come on then. Hand them over,'

Gina and Jo followed Sam and Louisa through the living room and sat down on the sofa. 'There you go. There's the present and a card signed by the whole relief,' Gina said.

Sam looked at Jo. 'Go on I'll take her while you open that,' she said as Sam passed Louisa over.

Sam opened the present that Gina had handed her. It was a pink teddy bear. 'We thought that she'd like it,' Gina said.

'It's beautiful Gina, thank you,' Sam replied and she leant across and hugged her.

'Who was at the door babe?' Phil asked as he came down the stairs and entered the living room.

'Hello Phil,' Gina said. 'We just came to see the little one.'

'I gathered that,' Phil replied.

'She's beautiful isn't she?' Jo asked.

'Yea, she is,' Phil replied, turning to Sam. 'I've sorted out the cot.'

'Good,' Sam replied.

'We'll leave you to it,' Jo replied as she passed Louisa back to Sam and she and Gina made their way towards the front door.

Sam followed Jo and Gina to the door, still carrying Louisa in her arms. 'Thanks for the presents you two,' Sam said.

'That's OK Sam, We'll see you soon,' Jo replied as she gently kissed the top of Louisa's head and walked back down the path followed by Gina.

Sam closed the door behind her and smiled. She finally had everything she'd always dreamed of: gorgeous husband and a beautiful baby. She was so happy and she didn't think that anything could destroy her and Phil's marriage. Or could it?...
