Strongest

057 | ...while in labour

TUL'S POV

Every pregnancy is unique and I for one can atest to that. I have seen Beam when he was pregnant with Jaron since Madame Ria always had me with him that time to monitor him. He was having it easy then, unlike now with their little girl.

Yes, it is a little girl but they don't know that. He and Forth decided for it to be a surprise. Of course, I would know. I was the one doing the scans and his check ups.

Beam has been in active labour for quite sometime now and has been bitching at his husband at the same time. I've never seen Forth being patient with other people aside from his husband and sons. If it were others doing it, they might've already received a fist to their faces.

For male pregnancy, it will be uncomfortable during the last month due to the appearance of the aperture between the scrotum and anus where the baby would pass. This said aperture would close on its own a few weeks after the birth.

Everyone is waiting outside for the new addition in the family. Madame Bree and Dr. Bo already had a suite prepared for Beam and the babe. Sir Jed flew in the moment he heard about Beam's contraction intervals nearing. His siblings are also present and so are their adorable boys.

I noticed one of the doctor's son present. I heard he is Beam's patient and Bren's younger brother from his birth mother. They've become close in a short span of time.

And now, I have to help Beam deliver the princess.

After six gruesome hours of labour and three hours of pushing, finally Beam has his daughter in his arms. This wouldn't be like the nurse attempting the babe to latch on the mother's nipple. Nope, cannot be since men do not lactate like women.

Beam was drenched in sweat and Forth was there, in scrubs too, to wipe those sweat away from his husband's face. The couple is overflowing with happiness and you could see how much love they have for their daughter.

I could still remember Beam laid out on the bed with his legs spread on the stirrups and a birthing bar before him to help him push. Forth even had to put a rolled towel in his mouth so he wouldn't bite his lips or tongue for his efforts. There were times when Forth wanted to intervene and just have his husband undergo Caesarian operation but one pleading look from Beam and he lets it go.

After cleaning him and the babe up, my team had him transferred to their suite where the whole family could rest. We just need to do some tests on their little princess before she joins them.

FORTH'S POV

I am so proud of my Beam. To go through that ordeal for quite sometime is really something. It brought my respect and love for him to a higher level. I feel so blessed to have him in my life. And to think he went through this before with Jaron and I wasn't here for them.

Maybe if I didn't run then I would've been holding his hand while he gives birth and with my baby bump being a bother in our way. The idea alone makes me smile but I know it can't be undone and I could only look forward to a life with my precious babies.

Gods, I feel so exhausted. I feel like Beam has broken all bones in both my hands but it would be uncomparable to the pain he went through. And we have a daughter, oh my! Beej and Jay would definitely adore their little sister and protect her like they do with each other.

Once Beam was settled in the room, I ensured everyone was comfortable. I almost forgot about Lem. That boy stole Beam and Bren's heart the moment they met him. I hate to admit that I restricted Beam from doing too much work but I relented when he discussed his case with me.

He is so young and I could see so much potential in him. I hope he gets well very soon because he has a lot of people worrying for him. I know Mae Bree already cares for him and even Por Bo, even if they deny it. Even my parents are taken by him.

I called for a nurse to keep an eye on Lem so Bren could hover on his Phi. Blake has been very supportive since they became official. I think it was sometime after our Japan trip.

I looked to where my sons are at. I found them sleeping in the couch with Bea, their aunt. I could already see this bunch of troublesome kids causing heart attacks to us and their grandparents in the future. Of course, it's something to be expected with mine and Beam's children. That's how notorious we are.

Before I forget, I need to make a few phone calls before the gang kills me. They've been dying to know the gender since Beam and I refused to find out. Their plans of throwing a baby shower was even thwarted since he became busy with Lem.

Oh the joy, I heard Kit and Yo are also pregnant. I was teasing Lam the other day about giving Lucien a sibling. He said they have tried but he had a miscarriage when their son was five. I hope he'll be able to carry again. It's hard to be an only child and I'm just so lucky to have Beam and my kids.

I moved my sons and sister-in-law one at time to have them sleep beside each other on a bed instead of the couch. I give them a kiss each on their foreheads before I go back beside Beam and have a little chat with our parents.

After a while, our princess was brought in and placed on the cot beside her Papa's bed. I watch Mom and Mae Bree coo at her while Dad and Por Bo simply watch them. Life is good despite the hardships.
