Annie's Adventures

Chapter 1: Giving Birth

"Keep... pushing!" I heard the nurse say, as I was being pulled by my head out into the world.

Lights... sounds... all these strange things seemed to be taking place all at once and I let out a cry. Let's just say, I did not like it and I wanted to be in my snug little cocoon where I had been safe for nine months.

I was wrapped in a blanket. I felt a little more secure but I didn't know what to make of this strange place...

The nurse who had washed and dressed me put me in my mothers arms. I knew she was my mother. I stared at her and she was beautiful.

She was exhausted and she was pale but she was the golden Goddess that I adored already.

She had medium long blond hair and brown eyes. She looked down at me and she smiled. "Hello little one, its nice to meet you."

I nuzzled at her breast and found a nipple. I began to suck and I herd her say to the man: "isn't she beautiful?"

The man smiled at my mother over the top of my head and he gently stroked my neck.

"I think she will be a content baby, what are you going to call her? The nurse asked my happy parents.

"Skye Grace," my father said proudly.

"What a beautiful name, may I ask what made you choose the name?" The nurse asked.

"She's named after both our mothers," my father replied.

I woke up in the morning really early! I started to cry, no one came, so I cried more loudly. Finally a nurse came and picked me up, gave me to my sleeping Mum for some more milk. She talked to me as I drank, "you can see your Mummy when she wakes up properly, she's had a hard time giving birth to you, but don't worry she'll be fine!". Then she put me back in my crib and I fell asleep quickly.
