Slow Love 3-Chaos and Disorder

Chapter 19

Prince POV

God, I love watching her sleep along with our babies. I am so happy and elated I can't even begin to think of sleeping because I might miss something. I want to absorb everything because these mark the first things in their lives. Besides, I am so used to being awake most of the time anyways, only sleeping minimally a few hours. I know this will aid me in helping her during this time when most parents lose a lot of sleep. I have to make sure she's getting enough rest so her concussion syndrome doesn't resurface. She's a good vampire like me but she requires more sleep than I do. Before long, it's gonna be feeding time. I will try to let her sleep while Nanny, Martha, and I feed them. I am in total bliss watching over my family. Nothing and I mean nothing could be better than this.

A tap on my shoulder, I look and it's Nanny. I place my finger on my lips, "Shhh." She nods and points to one of the girls. I have Ethan and Violet, she has the girls. This will be difficult to get them away from her to feed without waking her up. Adeline is nuzzled up to her but I think I can get Adele. I have an idea. I slip out of bed quietly, handing Nanny Ethan and I take sleeping Violet. 

When we get out of earshot, "Sir, she's exhausted. I am worried about her. We need to get her to sleep through the rest of the night...tonight." 

Yes, I nod as I look up and there's my love holding Adeline. "What are you two conniving? I know I am worn out but, at the moment, I need to take care of my babies. When we get home tomorrow, I think we should hire another Nanny because I cannot keep up with this pace. Bonnie will help but we need a part-time Nanny to take up some of the slack. Where's Martha?" 

Heavily I exhale, "Baby, I sent her to get a doctor to check you. I want to make sure you don't end up getting sick again." 

Shaking her head as she rolls her beautiful eyes at me, "Darling, I am perfectly fine. A little rough around the edges but I'll be okay. Let's get the babies fed and go back to sleep." 

In comes Martha with a Doctor in tow. "I understand Mrs.Nelson needs to see a doctor. I am Dr. Brown, how can I help?" Nanny has the bottles ready. "Dr. Brown, let's go in the living room while we feed the babies." Martha and Nanny stay behind to feed Ethan and Adele.

While we feed our babies, Dr. Brown takes my wife's hand to check her pulse. "Mrs. Nelson, you seem healthy. Are you having trouble sleeping?" 

She shakes her head no. "Dr. Brown, it's just a couple hours at a time. I think when we get home and we get settled in with the babies, I will manage to get more hours in between feedings." 

I add to my wife's statement. "Dr. Brown, we are trying to get used to having 4 infants. The older set of twins goes 4-5 hours between feedings. Because the newest set of twins were born early, they have us feeding them every 2 hours. Baby Adeline, my wife is feeding, has jaundice. She's much better but the doctor told us to feed her often to keep her well hydrated." 

The doctor raises her eyebrow, "Mrs. Nelson, I checked your medical records before I came. You are at risk of reoccurrence of the concussion syndrome if you don't continue to get enough rest. Ma'am, you have help. Allow them to provide you the assistance to avoid you becoming overly exhausted. When you get home, I think you will be able to establish a routine that will provide you the opportunity to adequately rest. Tonight, above all, you should concentrate on trying to sleep." 

My wife is clearly not happy with me. "Yes, I will heed your concerns. Dr. Brown. Thank you for your concerns and for checking me. We will allow the Nannies to care for them until morning." The doctor leaves and we go back to bed. My love cuddles into me and drifts off to sleep quickly.

Gigi POV

Morning arrives quickly and we are eager to be discharged to go home with our babies. Nanny and Martha have them all fed, dressed, and ready to go. Our bags are packed and we are waiting for Dr. Martin's arrival to discharge them. Right on time, she is here with paperwork in her hand. We are given the instructions on Adeline to assist her in getting over jaundice. While we were sleeping, the nurse administered their hepatitis shot. Dr. Martin informs us their bloodwork showed no signs of any inherent diseases or problems.
