Christian and Ana’s Post-Baby Anxiety After a complicated labor with Phoebe, Ana Grey has to deal with her own insecurities while managing Christian’s mounting anxiety. It’s a bumpy emotional roller coaster but they both learn to cope and communicate to become a stronger couple (little lemons thrown in as a reward). NO CHEATING. Feedback welcome. Enjoy! Author’s Note: My take on E.L. James’s baby timeline is a little different but true to her characters. I imagine that it took longer for Christian and Ana to conceive (Phoebe was born seven years into their marriage). I always thought it was too quick and convenient to pop her out right after Teddy. In my version there was also a miscarriage in between, which I don’t really explore (a little too personal of a subject and other people have done a better job with that storyline) but it’s integral to my plot in that it increases Christian’s anxiety.
