After that, they turned on the TV and watched a movie. After the movie they took a short nap.*7 months later
It was finally the Backstreet Boys much needed break. Amanda had a pretty big tummy and Nick loved singing to the little baby inside. The next time Nick would go on tour he'd be a daddy. The Backstreet Boys were finally on break. No more performances, no more press conferences, and no more photo shoots. They were all so happy. The only thing they couldn't do was go to the mall without being bombarded by fans.
Amanda and Nick decided to have an animal print nursery. They had to 'play it safe' because they wanted to be surprised with the sex of the baby. They narrowed the names down to one each. Girl: Savannah Rose. Boy: Ryan Nickolas. The growth of their first baby was perfectly on time. Nick always made sure that Amanda was comfortable.
"Amanda, baby?" said Nick, in a questioning voice.
"Yes, honey," said Amanda.
"Come with me," said Nick, leading her to the porch. She held her tummy and waddled alongside Nick.. He told her to sit in the chair and put her feet up. She did as she was told. Nick got behind her and began to massage her shoulders. A big smile appeared across Amanda's face. She loved the feeling of Nick's strong hands on her back. Amanda felt so relaxed watching the rainfall and knowing that Nick was right by her side with no fans to bother them.
"Amanda," said Nick, still massaging her back.
"Yes, honey," replied Amanda. I love you so much. I just wish we had more days like these where no one bothers us or asks either of us for an autograph or a picture," said Nick, taking Amanda's hand and helping her up.
In-between kisses Amanda said, "Me too baby...Me too."
Nick looked Amanda in the eye and put both of his hands on her growing pregnant tummy. He smiled at Amanda and kissed her than bent down and kissed her tummy. The last three months of Amanda's pregnancy went by really fast. It was January 28th, Nick's birthday. Nick had his party a week earlier and Amanda had given him a palm pilot so he could easily have his schedule without worrying about forgetting it or losing the papers.
Amanda came in the kitchen with her long white robe on and said, "Happy birthday, honey!"
Nick went over to her and said, "Thank you baby," as he kissed her. Suddenly Amanda backed away. "Honey, are you Okay?" asked Nick, worried about his wife.
"Umm, Nick...Honey...My water just broke!" said Amanda, still in shock.
"Oh my God!" said an excited Nick. "Come on baby, I'll get your suitcases and help you into the car," said Nick, too excited for words. Nick got Amanda into his black Mercedes-Benz S class Sedan. Amanda kept breathing Lamaze as she got through the contractions.
Nick finally pulled up to the emergency entrance. The doctors immediately got her into a room until she was ready for delivery. For five hours Nick sat with Amanda and held her hand while she had her contractions. All the guys were in the waiting room as well as A.J.'s girlfriend, Jessica, Howie's girlfriend, Brittany, Brian's wife, Leighanne, and Kevin's wife, Kristin as well as Aaron, Nick's brother. They were all so excited. The God Father and God Mother were going to be Brian and Leighanne. Back in Amanda's, room her contractions were about one minute apart and she finally reached ten centimeters dilated.
The doctors rushed in and threw Nick a pair of green scrubs. He and the doctors got her into the delivery room. "Push, baby, push. Come on honey!" yelled Nick, letting Amanda squeeze his hand.
"UGH! Ahhh, oow, it burns, it burns..." whined Amanda.
"I know, baby, I know. You can do it. Come on baby, come on!" encouraged Nick.
"Your baby's head is crowned. Just three more strong pushes, Amanda," said the doctor. Amanda pushed again. "Okay, your baby's head is out. Two more pushes, Amanda," said the doctor.
Nick went over and saw their baby's head. His eyes got teary as he went back up to Amanda. "Come on Amanda, baby, come on," said Nick, holding her hand. Amanda pushed again and was now on her last push.
"UGH! Ooh! Ahhhh!" screamed Amanda as she gave birth to a baby girl.
"Congratulations, you have just given birth to a beautiful baby girl!" announced the doctor. Amanda began hysterically crying as Nick kissed her lips and forehead. Nick cut the cord as the doctor wrapped the baby in a pink blanket and handed her to Amanda.
"Hello, Savannah Rose," said a teary-eyed Amanda. She kissed her baby and handed her to Nick. He rocked his precious daughter in his arms and she held his index finger while he kissed her tiny head. She was seventeen inches and five pounds. She was a little small, but the doctors said that she was perfectly healthy. The doctors told everyone about the baby. They said they could go in to visit them in ten minutes. The doctors moved Amanda to a regular room. The guys and the girls came in to admire Savannah. She had beautiful crystal blue eyes. They only stayed for five minutes so Amanda could rest.
