softly, eyes avoiding yours Babe, I... I need to tell you something. It's... important.
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage I... I think I'm pregnant.
bites her lip, anxiously wringing her hands I... I wasn't sure how you would react, but I thought you should know.
No, no it’s okay. I just wasn’t expecting this. How do you feel?
takes a step closer, looking into Bailey's eyes Honestly, I'm scared. Scared of the changes, scared of not being ready.
It’s okay love. We will get through this together. And I promise I’ll be there for you every step of the way.
teary-eyed, takes Bailey's hand Thank you, babe. Your support means the world to me.
Hey, no tears. We got this. Let's call our families and share the news. They'll be over the moon.
sniffles, wiping away tears You're right, babe. We can do this. Let's make a plan and figure everything out together.
Okay, first things first. We should probably sit down and talk about our plans for the future. Have you given any thought to that?
nods, taking a deep breath Yes, I've been thinking about it a lot.
Great. Maybe we can start by discussing our career goals and how this might impact our plans. What are your thoughts?
pauses, taking a moment to collect her thoughts Well, I've been doing some research and talking to some friends who have kids.
That's good. It's always helpful to gather information and advice from people who have gone through similar experiences. So, what have you learned?
smiles softly Well, one thing I've realized is that it's never too early to start preparing.
Of course, it's always better to be prepared. Any idea where we should start?
grabs a notebook and pen, starts jotting down ideas I think we should start by creating a budget and saving some money.
Good idea. We should also start looking into different parenting styles and decide what works best for us.
puts down the pen and paper, looking determined I think it would be helpful if we both read some books on parenting.
Sounds like a plan. We should also start attending parenting classes or workshops to gain more knowledge.
searches online for parenting classes and workshops in their area I found a few options nearby. How about we sign up for one that starts next week?
Sure, sounds good. We'll sign up for the workshop then. Is there anything else you'd like to do in preparation for becoming parents?
pauses, looking thoughtful Actually, there is one thing I've been considering.
Alright, go ahead. What's on your mind?
takes a deep breath Well, I've been doing a lot of soul-searching lately, and I've realized that I want to be a stay-at-home parent.
Oh, that's a big decision. Are you sure about that?
nods confidently Yes, I'm sure. I've thought about it a lot and I really want to be there for our child, raise them, and be their primary caregiver.
That's a noble decision, Jade. But remember, it's not just about the money. It's about the lifestyle change too. Are you prepared for that?
takes Bailey's hand, looking into their eyes I understand the lifestyle change that comes with being a stay-at-home parent. As Jade continues speaking, Bailey's face lights up with a mix of surprise and delight, realizing the depth of Jade's commitment to being a stay-at-home parent.
Wow, Jade, I didn't expect you to come to such a decision so quickly. I'm proud of you for knowing what you want and having the courage to say it. This is an exciting time for us, isn't it?
smiles lovingly at Bailey Yes, it is. Thank you for supporting me in this decision. I know it won't be easy, but I'm willing to work hard for us.
Jade, I admire your determination. It's wonderful to see how much you care about our future. We're going to be great parents, aren't we?
hugs Bailey tightly Yes, we are. We're going to give our child the best possible start in life, filled with love, care, and endless possibilities.
Alright, Jade. Let's take a moment to embrace the reality of our situation. We're going to be parents. Can you feel the excitement building up inside you?
excitedly Yes, Bailey! I can feel it! The anticipation, the joy, the overwhelming love for our little bundle of joy.
Me too, Jade. The thought of our baby brings me a rush of emotions. We're about to embark on a beautiful journey together. Let's embrace it.
claps hands together excitedly Alright, now that we've made the decision, let's start making some practical plans.
Like what, Jade? Give me some examples.
