Yikes. Your Malfoy is so sweet. This entire chapter, in fact, was much nicer than the first. I could kiss McGonagall for her kindness. I wonder about the underage thing, though--in America the law says that if the two people are within 2 years of age of each other, it's legal. Is it different in England, or is this just your own law? Just curious.

What a complete and utter bitch!!! Molly, I mean, of course. Did you mean for her to be so utterly wretched? First all she does is attack poor Ginny, and then she sends that HOWLER. Unbelievable. She's so horrible, I hate hate hate her. Ugh. Malfoy's reaction, on the other hand, was quite amusing. I think I'll go reread it.

I love it. I love how rationally Ginny is taking her pregnancy, and how she is seeing that negatives. I abhore those
'I'm pregnant!
'Splended! We're underage, but let's get married.'
'Jolly good! Harry can be the godfather even though you hate him!'
'Ah well, water under the bridge and all that after I've knocked up his best friends sister!'
stories. You're doing a really good job.
Author's Response: LOL - I LOVE your response! I abhor those fics too - so OC!
"You're doing a really good job." - *blushes* thanks.
Ginny is taking the pregnancy rationally - at the moment. I think once she starts to experience all the other aspect of pregnancy like the hormonal swings, swollen feet, backache etc etc etc then we will see a definate change in her viewpoint and as for the birth, well, put it this way, my mother is a midwife, so my research material is top grade!
I am still debating how to handle the revelation...

I really loved these two chapters. This story has somthing other pregnate Ginny fics don't have... I can't place it but it is simply brilliant! I love the fact that they were friends first and then more and it wasn't some one night stand.
The only thing I didn't like was the Howler, but I think it served its purpose really well and certainly made for an interesting twist in the fic.
All in all I have really loved the start and can't wait to read more.
Author's Response: I'm glad you like this. Chapter 3 is coming on brilliantly. I wasn't sure about the Howler either, I think it is my least favourite part, but it provided a humourous pre-howler Ginny POV, spread the story around the school, shocked the father and resulted in a much-needed dialogue between Ginny and McGonagall. I can't abide those stories that have a pregnant Ginny that appears to receive no sort of counselling from the school whatsoever, it's so unrealistic because any school would make sure a girl knew all her options and the consequences of her actions. Obviously Hogwarts is (as far as we know) the only wizarding school in England so clearly they can't expel her because she needs to be trained, so this dialogue with McGonagall helps to 'set the scene' so to speak.
I really didn't think that making it a one-night-stand would have the same angst impact and potential for multiple Points of view as the friendship-turned-relationship. Although interestingly Love hasn't been mentioned, which I feel is important because at the moment we see lust and desire and friendship. Love doesn't even come into it.

good good good good!!! such mature writing on a difficult subject. this is not the first pregnant-ginny story i've read but it's so far one of the best. not that my opinion matters but i think draco would be more sacred about what other people might think and his social station. he would also try to figure out how to turn this to his advantage. i think he would force ginny into marrying him if only to secure his heir within his family. his mother would agree. he would be thinking long term and not just the year he has left in school. ginny, on the other hand, would be very concerned about her familys reaction when they do find out who is the father. arthur and her brothers would be so against any relationship. molly would encourage ginny to get married if only for the sake of propriety. please continue with this story. am looking forward to the updates.

You already know how much I like this story and I can't wait to see more. Poor Ginny and poor Draco. They are both in very difficult positions and torn by forces greater than either of them. Yet they are linked forever by this tiny life they created. The fall out from this revelation will be interesting.

Those were a great 2 chapters. I want to see how the respective families' reactions when all is finally revealed. What will the Weasley's do to Draco when he finally owns upto to his part? What will Narcissa say for having a half Weasley for a grandchild? More so what will Lucius say when the news reaches him? Oh my....
Anyway to my praise of great writing. The humor and drama go hand in hand here!

There are alot of pregnant Ginny fics out there and thank the lords that yours is so good! You've got humour miexed in with the seriousness of the situation and I love it!
I can't wait for the next chapter.
love ser
Author's Response: I have actually posted the first two chapters straight away, and yes, I am working hard on the third chapter!!
Author's Response: appended:
I'm glad you like this. The humour is important, I think, because, as you say, there are a lot of 'Pregnant Ginny' Fics out there and there tends to be a fairly predictable plot progression (which I sort of parodied in one of Ginny's responses *assumes innocent expression*), and given my plot choice, I am going to have follow this to a certain extent, so I am making it as humourous as possible! LOL
