Summary
“The Joshua Carter Center has a dedicated branch for fertility and reproductive science, with particular focus on high-risk populations and geriatric pregnancies. In fact — and you may not know this — it’s one of the highest rated fertility treatment centers in the country, with one of the highest success rates. Even in medical circles, it’s known as a bit of a Hail Mary option, and a referral here is, generally, for those patients who have hit the end of the road everywhere else.”
“And you’re…looking to refer someone in particular? Because I —”
“Yes,” she says. “Me.”
OR
Twelve years after she left without telling him, Anna Del Amico returns to Chicago and John Carter's life. Both of them are eager to catch up, but neither of them are prepared to admit that happily ever after hasn't come as easily as they'd once hoped. After hearing about the loss of Joshua, and feeling the desperation of her own failed attempts at having a child, Anna asks Carter to be her sperm donor.
This, he thinks, is a terrible idea...and yet...when has he ever let that stop him?

Summary
"C-Carter?" Peter manages, shell-shocked as his student blinks once, slowly. He twitches harder, like he's trying to purposefully move closer, and Peter can hear a croaked whisper in the silence surrounding them.
"I'm sorry-" he manages, heaving in and weakly choking. His student’s breaths are erratic and shallow. "Took too long,"

Summary
Carter had been standing in the corner of the OR, wringing his gloved hands for no more than ten minutes when he felt it—that telltale shift.
No, no, no, not now, oh god, not now.
It's been so long since he last had a period that he'd ignored all the warning signs. He attributed his roiling stomach to nerves, his headache to the exhaustion of med school, his mood swings to the high-pressure environment of County.
But after shifting his weight one too many times, he felt a warm slickness pooling in his underwear. Undeniable.
