It sounds so sweet, coming from the lips of an angel

“They’re waking her up now,” I hear Aiden say, and I crack one eye open to see he’s on the phone. “Yeah, they’re going to do the balloon and give her Pitocin, and then you can head up here.” After a pause, he replies, “No, we don’t need anything. The hospital bag was already in the car. She’s not allowed to eat or drink anything except ice chips until the baby comes. One sec, Ava, she’s coming out of it.”

I lift my head to see Jamie carefully rolling the Foley balloon until it’s about the size of a cigarette. I look to my right and see Heather rubbing my arm, and everything suddenly clicks into place, where I am, what’s happening, and who it is on the phone.

“We let you sleep for a couple of hours, but we didn’t want to wait any longer to get things moving. Susan told me on the phone you hadn’t gotten any sleep in the last couple of days, and I thought it was important to get you a little rest to have strength to get this sweet baby out,” Jamie tells me.

All I can do is nod in my stupor, and I listen as Aiden tells my mom, “They’re putting it in. Now she’s got a big-ass syringe and is filling it, pushing water into the tube… She’s good. She looks like she’s falling back to sleep.”

With that announcement, I feel Heather rub my arm again, bringing me back. I don’t know why I have to be awake for this, but since it seems so important to them, I concentrate on staying conscious.

“There we go. It worked,” Jamie says with a bright smile. She uses the syringe to suck the water back out of the balloon then sits it on the metal rolling tray beside her. She gives a little tug on the tube to remove the balloon, and when she does, I feel a huge release inside me, and all of a sudden the bed beneath me is very, very warm.

I look up at Aiden confused as he stops explaining what the nurse is doing midsentence. I watch half amused, half concerned as he wobbles on his feet, his face turning ghostly pale. “Is she okay?” he finally whispers to the room.

Jamie gives a short laugh. “Oh, yeah. She’s great. Her water just broke. Won’t be long now.”

After he revives some of his color, he speaks into the phone, “Her water broke. I’ve never seen anything like it. I…I gotta go, Ava. You coming up here soon?” A pause. “Okay, see you in a few.” And he shuts his phone.

Relief fills me knowing my mom will be here in a little while, and I’m sure she’ll be bringing Granny with her. That was my number one wish in my birth plan. I couldn’t care less if Aiden was here, but I wanted my mom and granny to be here. Granny was the
