Laura, good beginning to this, but you're starting to worry me. The WHAM coming up just doesn't sound very good for the baby. Even if it seems Lois will pull through whatever health disaster is pending, I'm still wondering if their child will make it. I'm crossing my fingers, hoping things work out for all. She could get used to this queen-like treatment. Even though she felt huge and immobile, Clark still made her feel cherished and beautiful, and he bent over backwards, trying to I think you may be missing part of this sentence/paragraph. Also, Martha was exasperating the situation. Were you looking for the word, "exacerbating"? More soon!

Well, the title was intriguing, so I checked this out. All the foreshadowing is making me very nervous, but this is fascinating. I loved watching Clark be so tender and protective of her, and there were some great lines in there. “Like I trust your taste! You'd think I was beautiful even if I wore a paper bag!”
“Yeah, but in my defense, you look good in brown.” lol! I do hope the baby survives... PJ

"You can say that again," she told him.
"I have a...."

“Yeah, but in my defense, you look good in brown.”  Laura, I'll say right up front that I'm not a big fan of pregnancy fics and even a less a fan of pregancy-gone-wrong fics. My own experiences speaking there, I suppose. Be that as it may, I'll try and stick around for this one. Great job of showing typical frustrating mood swings there, although you're clearly foreshadowing something more ominous. Why not post more soon, so we can find out?  Hazel

Hey Laura -
Great set up. I'm really anxious to know what's going on with Lois. Could it be that the baby is ready to make an early appearance???
I'm excited to read the next installment...

Laura, this looks like an interesting set-up. When I read your definition of amygdala, I immediately thought that Clark would be the one to go haywire, but now that there's pregnancy in the air, I'm really not so sure!

Thanks for all of the coments, Roger (I fixed those grammar things -- thanks!), Julie, Pam, Hazel (thank you for reading, but I can almost guarantee you won't like this story), Jose, Lynn, Maria, Tricia, Yvonne, and Saskia. I'm sorry, I meant to post the next part yesterday, and I am sorry my reply was so short, but I am pretty sick . I will try to post later tonight.
