Time flew and crawled at the same time. Inbetween trying to make sure that John wasn't overexerting himself and getting William to and from school, fed, homework done, story read and into bed, they somehow found time to move into a new house.

William loved it. His room was gigantic compared to John's old room upstairs at 221B. The walls had been painted blue with white fluffy clouds drifting towards the ceiling.

The babies would eventually have the two rooms on either side of him once they were a bit older, but they were going to start in the master bedroom, just like William had.

John was huge now, and he couldn't move all that well. His bladder was tiny and his back and feet ached a lot. Sherlock helped how he could, but mostly he helplessly listened while John became more and more frustrated at what he could no longer do.

But he was just over a week away from 8 months, and that in and of itself was a little miracle.

John was looking at his laptop when Sherlock came into bed. "William's asleep, the house is locked down for the night. Do you need a foot rub, John?" It wasn't every night, but sometimes it helped John sleep.

John had been having some slightly worse back pains than usual, which could mean something or it might mean nothing. With this pregnancy, there were so many unknowns.
