My Husband Went Out With His Friends When I Was Heavily Pregnant. He Cried When I Told Him This

The story starts below

My husband kissed my forehead before heading out with his buddies, joking, “Don’t go into labor tonight!”

I gave a weak smile, but deep down, I had a strange feeling. Sure enough, in the early hours, a wave of pain hit that made me gasp.

I was all alone, my phone calls ignored. The next day, he showed up laughing—until he saw my face. I told him something I’d been holding in all night.

The look on his face changed instantly the moment I said the words I couldn’t take back.

Trying Not To Panic

As soon as the door closed, I sank onto the couch. My hand rubbed over my swollen belly, trying to calm both the baby and me.

The house was eerily quiet, and I felt the minutes tick by. My mind raced, but I kept telling myself, "Just breathe."

With each small kick, I couldn't shake the unsettling feeling gnawing at me. I wished he'd know how much I needed him here.

Time To Go To Hospital

Minutes turned into hours, and the discomfort shifted into sharp pain. I doubled over, realizing this wasn't just a false alarm.

With my breath quickening, I knew the hospital was my only option. My heart pounded as I stood up, clutching the arm of the couch.

A whirlwind of thoughts zoomed through my mind, but I focused on one thing: getting help. Somehow, I had to do this, even if it meant going alone.

Neighbor To The Rescue

With trembling hands, I grabbed my phone and called Lisa, the only neighbor I truly trusted. It didn't take long before she answered. "

Lisa, I need help," I blurted out, trying to keep my voice steady. "I'll be right there," she promised, her voice firm yet calming.

Relief washed over me like a lifeline. Within minutes, Lisa arrived, guiding me with reassuring words as she helped me to her car.

The Rush To Hospital

Lisa drove like she was on a mission, glancing over to make sure I was holding it together. At the hospital entrance, she paused just long enough to get me inside, where the lights were too bright and noise too loud.

"Stay with me," Lisa said, clutching my hand. The nurses took over, guiding me swiftly. I could feel the contractions become more intense, and suddenly, it all felt very real.
