After resting in the hospital, Julia and Brian headed home. At first, it was nice having Julia cook for him and bring him his meals in bed, but he started going a bit stir crazy as he just laid in bed or on the couch watching TV. He really wanted to go out and just do something. Anything. But he dutifully followed the doctor's orders.
After about 5 days, he felt some slight cramping. This was especially worrisome to Brian as he experienced the last 2 times he had his "period." He switched his underwear to the panties and used the maxipad for the inevitable. He didn't tell Julia what was happening for fear that it would only depress her. After 2 more days, he had some light spotting on his pad, but no where near the usual amount of blood. He brushed it off as a rather pleasant side effect of the treatment. In 3 days, He and Julia would go back to Doctor Vandenberg who would no doubt tell them the implantations failed. He just hoped that they would be able to try at least one more time. He spent the next 2 days in a rather down mood, though he tried his best to be in good spirits when Julia was around.
They went to the doctor's office where one of her nurses drew some blood. One could easily feel the tension in the exam room as they waited. "Hurry up" Brian thought to himself. He knew he wasn't pregnant, and just wanted to move on to trying again. He had felt guilty for not telling Julia earlier. Now, here she was, sitting here, hoping for news that wasn't going to come.
The minutes ticked by, and the guilt slowly ate away at Brian. Finally he decided he needed to let her know.
"Julia... There's something I need to tell you. I..."
Just then, the exam room door opened up and Dr. Vandenberg walked in with a big smile on her face.
"Congratulations! You're pregnant!" she said gleefully.
