“You know dear, it’s awfully distracting with you walking around without a shirt” Cressida only half seriously admonished. 

Stan winked at her before sauntering away to get dressed. 

Cressida, newly focused, logs on to her favorite cooking forum to get some tips for a particularly tricky recipe. 

Cressida woke bright and early the next day. 

“I need these potatoes for my new recipes” She explained to Stan while she planted. 

Afterwards she made a Simstagram worthy meal that didn’t really help with her back pain. 

After a long night of *ahem* consummating the marriage the newlyweds are having a late breakfast. 

“What do you plan to do today Mrs Halcyon?” Stan asks flirtatiously. 

Cressida misses the hint completely and eagerly goes into an explanation of the complicated gourmet dishes she’s going to be making today.. 

Cressida has adapted quickly to life with a baby in the house. She wakes up early and gets moving with some yoga. 

While she’s busy Stan makes a phone call to an old friend to ask for advice on Owen. He knows Cressida will support him no matter what but he doesn’t know how to handle telling her that he can’t raise a child forced on him in such a brutally clinical way. 

As Cressida continues to get the most out of her day off Stan continues to struggle with the words. As Cressida is starting dinner and he is grabbing milk out of the fridge it just comes out. Cressida is shocked and sad for the child but knows that this is the only way Stan can begin to recover. 

Stan’s pregnancy progressed more or less normally, well as normally as an alien induced male pregnancy can go. Cressida is completely supportive and caring for the dad-to-be, and even a little excited. Sadly, before he can propose to Cressida, Stan goes into labor.
