Okay so I left a totally gone and detailed review that my stupid computer deleted. Here's take two:

I was totally impressed by the plot development that took place in this chapter. Kagome's pregnancy is almost done, she's admitted her love for Sesshomaru, Kenichirou joins the inutachi and defeats Naraku. That's a heck of a lot. Goodness gracious.

I'm so sad, though, because they love each other but aren't willing to change the status quo for fear of what it will bring.

Oh, and that cliffie? Not nice. Not nice at all.*scolds*

Thank you so much for writing!

That was a nice chapter. The battle between Naraku though seemed...short. I guess that's what happens when awesome people work together but... oh well i guess one less thing to worry bout. Sadness with the whole Kagome/Sesshoumaru situation. Nothing like them both hiding their feelings from each other. I wonder if they are becoming so close when they will be able to see through each other and finally be able to admit their feelings. I can see the birth of the baby being that point thats so emotional neither can hold back. I can't wait to see what happens next :)

Yay Naraku is gone! I wonder what Kagme is planning. Update soon.

Thank god that even with all the changes and uncertainity, Kagome still protects her baby. It just hit me when you say that Kagome is 17 and pregnant. Gosh thats a lot to happen to her all at once and at such a young age. But Sesshoumaru is trying to smooth everything out. I wonder if Kagome will realize that and have that endear her to Sesshoumaru. Im kinda excited for the Inuyasha and now Kenichirou bit of storyline. That is sure to provide some entertainment. I can't wait to see what happens next :)

Lol, Sesshoumaru can't handle Kagome crying. Loved the ending!

Hmm. Alright. A lot of time and mood swings went by here. I hope Kenichirou plays his part well.

As for Kagome herself, I think she's starting to grow up nicely. She has now learned more about herself, and her mate. Not to mention embraced her motherly protective instinct in the end there. <3

I feel like I missed Sesshoumaru in this chapter. He was there, but it felt like it was just to make sure we didn't miss him too much as the focus was on Kagome and her adjustments. Could have just been my perception of it though.

I'm excited to keep following this story and seeing where you take it to its completion. <3

Thank you for updating this absolutely fantastic story. I am eagerly following it. I love that Sesshoumaru accepts that he loves Kagome..but can I make a request...that Kagome shortly gets a clue...that she loves him back. I feel so sorry for my favorite inu character...loving and waiting for it to be return. Please update soon, I cannot wait for the next chapter.

hahahahaha@ kagome being a vicious pitbull of a miko!

okay as always i'm totallly amazed by this fic! you always make me amazed at the depth of the characterization. So many make them fall together with such little thought  to how the day to day life would really make them react. and even i find myself in that situatuation. either way, once again you had me nearly in tears for the desperation that kagome feels for her situation, and having Izumi come to finally understand that kagome is a child empress to be, carrying the next heir. that her whole life has been taken from her for their needs, heedless of what she was doing before hand. Part of me really hates that none of them have considered the fact that kagome is the SHIKON MIKO and thus has a greater calling then just being a mate/breeder. but i think thats a small sad part of me that just feels hopeless for kagome's plight. Still i love how while she's not the most skilled or anything when it coems to her baby, that freaks her out, that she's still a pitbull. I like that even though many have been shown their place still they come after her. it's more real then somany other fics, and that is why i keep reading. though i do wonder when she and sess will be together again, he loves her, and she's at least falling for him. oh well can't wait for more! - r0o

Whether or not she thinks she'll be a good mother, at least we (and she!) knows that she'll love it with all her heart. Still loving the story!

Ahahahahahahhahaahaahahhaa! Poor Sesshomaru, like so many men, reduced to desperation when it comes to a woman's tears :D 

Ooooooooh nice Kagome! I have to say, I don't feel sorry for the dude, trying to murder a child - despicable. However, I feel like there will be some consequences....

Update soon!

Seems like Kagome is finally accepting what is going on and is growing up. I wonder how this will also change the relationship between her and Sess.

Woohoo! Yeah! Go Kagome!!!!

Freaking awesome! Kagome kicked ass! Anyway, congratulations on being nominated! You got my vote and we all wish for the best for you! Please update soon!

Ooo.... now it's getting interesting. Kagome is fierce in her protectiveness over her baby. I would be too. I also understand her being afraid about being a mother but Kagome will make a great mother. That was a great chapter! :) 

Great new chapter! I love this fic!

I'm starting to feel bad for Sesshoumaru... Mood swings and tears! Poor poor doggie. Can't he at least win a kiss next chap??

It's nice that Kags send Kenichirou to help, I'd like to see how he'll interact with the "rude half-blood bastard".

And by the way, a Sesshoumaru and Kenichirou threesome dream is NEVER "just" a dream... I think it's ranks 3rd or 4th in my perv fantasies... *laughs* 

YOU GO KAGOME!!! lol. Loved the chapter! I'm especially glad that Kagome is finally thinking of Sesshomaru in a different light. I can't wait to see how everything progresses! Thanks for updating!

Yes! Bad-ass Mom Kagome!

OMG!!! I LOVEZ THIS STORY!!!!! EVERY CHAPTER IS VERY CAPTIVAITING!! I hope you update soon!!!! Are updates done monthly?

Yay, Kagome is having some progress. Loved the dream sequence, I wonder how Sesshoumaru and Kenichiro will react when they find out.

Ah, The things your mind puts you through when you sleep. But on the other hand, at least she's realizing what she thinks and feels about Sesshoumaru.

Very nice. I'm looking forward to the next chapter. <3
