Sebastian felt very useless standing by Jayda, doing nothing than holding her hand and encouraging her to push by whispering soothing and encouraging words in her ear.
He wished he could do more, he wished he could go through the labour for her or somehow take away all the pain she was feeling. She was in tears and in great pain and it broke his heart.
Seb had tears in his eyes too but he tried as much as he could to hold them back. Jayda relied on him for support and he had to be strong for her.
"I can see her head, babe, just a few more pushes and she will be with us." Sebastian encouraged, before placing a kiss on her sweaty face.
"You can do it Jayda, you're the strongest woman I know." He added.
Another tear rolled down Jayda's cheek before using all the strength left in her to push really hard.
Lo and behold, the cry of a bouncing baby girl followed suit.
Jayda jammed her head back against the pillow and heaved a sigh of relief.
"You did it, my love, I'm so proud of you." Sebastian placed a kiss on her lips before going over to cut their baby's cord on the Doctor's request.

Jayda was reluctant because she was afraid of hospital food even when she was on a VIP treat and anything could be made for her instantly. She was glad Sebastian came to her rescue.
"Thanks, Doc, I'll contact my Mom to come along with some oatmeal for her, " Seb said, reaching out for his phone.
"Okay then, before I forget, you have a visitor."
"Wow." Jayda smiled, wondering who was so eager to see them when it was barely 8 am. She had a feeling it was no other than her best friend, Lilian.
"Please let them in, " Jayda said excitedly.
"Okay dear, I'll check up on you later, " Davis said before she and the nurse exited the ward.
Sebastian made his way over to Jayda. "Mom will be here soon with Aaron and your oatmeal."
"Thanks. Seeing that our daughter is healthy makes me full; I can't wait for everyone to meet her. But don't worry, I'll eat a little for your peace of mind." She assured. Sebastian kissed her lips.
