Surprises and Struggles

Tiny

Jimin heard the sound of crying. Was he dreaming? The cry sounded so distant, yet so close. As if it were being played through speakers in a large concert hall, unable to pinpoint the location of the sound.

My baby...

He struggled, but managed to open his eyes. His vision was blurry and the bright hospital lights didn't help.

"I think your mommy is waking up." The cry quieted at the sound of Yoongi's voice.

"My baby...." Jimin nearly whispered as he struggled to sit up. His throat burned.

"Whoa, take it slow. You lost a lot of blood, babe." Yoongi put a hand on his shoulder, his other arm occupied by a bundle of blankets.

"I want to hold her. I want to see my baby. Let me see her..." He pleaded, his voice rough from screaming and yelling during labor and delivery.

"Okay, just take it easy, okay?" Jimin nodded. The older male adjusted the bed so he was sitting upright and had him drink a bit of water. When he appeared to be much more steady, he gently handed the bundle over to Jimin's arms.

Jimin teared up instantly.

She cooed quietly, but laid still. "Hi, baby. Hey, Mina, I'm your mommy. I'm so happy to meet you. Oh my god, Yoongi, she's so pretty." He couldn't stop the tears streaming down his face.

"She's absolutely perfect." Yoongi commented, kissing Jimin's temple.

"She looks so much like you. She has a sort of combination of both our eyes. She has my ears, that seems like all she got from me." Jimin stared at his newborn daughter.

"She's small like you." Jimin didn't even roll his teary eyes at the comment. Yoongi wasn't much taller than himself. "I'm so proud of you. I love you, Jimin." He leaned around a gave his boyfriend a long kiss.

"Thank you." He whispered.

"For what?" Yoongi laughed lightly.

"Making such a beautiful baby with me."

"You are more than welcome." The blond man winked. Soon the visitors were allowed in the room after Jimin was checked. Seokjin was the first one to come rushing in.

"Can I hold her?" He asked excitedly.

"Of course!" Jin carefully took the baby from Jimin.

"Ohh hello, Mina. You look like you're daddy. You really do. Ahh, so pretty!" Jin cooed as he rocked her. She started making soft, little grunts. Jin pouted at the cuteness and looked at Namjoon holding their one-year-old daughter.

"No, Jin, I know that look. I want Nayoung potty trained before we even think about trying for another." His eyes went wide and Jin stepped closer to him until they were touching.

"But look at her! Don't you want another one?"

"Yes, but not at the moment." He brushed her soft cheek with his finger. "Maybe in a few years." He smiled at her. "Nayie, look! That's your baby Mina."

"I would've liked to have waited, but Yoongi's pull-out game is weak." Jimin laughed before groaning in pain.

"Oh that night, it was nonexistent." They laughed amongst themselves.

"Nayie, look its a baby." Seokjin showed his daughter the newborn, she seemed tentative at first. "It's baby Mina. She was in Uncle Jimin's belly." The older baby looked at her mom and then the newborn.

"Baby Mina...?" She pointed at the bundle of pink blankets.

"Yes, this is Baby Mina! You can touch her, but be very gentle." Just to be extra safe, Seokjin took hold of his daughter's hand and showed her how to carefully touch the newborn. "Good girl, Nayie. Very nice!" The newborn started making little cooes and gurgles. "She's saying 'Hi, Nayie! Nice to meet you!'" The one-year-old smiled and leaned against Namjoon's chest, hugging him.

"Awww, baby girl." Namjoon groaned happily, hugging his daughter and rubbing her back. "Isn't she cute, Nayie?" Nayoung kept her head against Namjoon's chest, but stared at Mina. "No need to be shy."

"The other's will be here to see her tomorrow. We have to take Nayie home and get her in a proper bed." He gently handed the baby back to Jimin. He gave to new parents hugs and congratulations before leaving.

"Has she been feed yet?" Jimin asked.

"You weren't out that long so she hasn't. I told them you wanted to breastfeed her and they understood. She'll get hungry soon though." Yoongi explained gently rubbing his thumb over her soft little pink cheek. A couple minutes later she got fidgety and started to cry. A wet nurse came in and instructed him on how to feed her and get her to latch. It was so painful and he actually cried as she suckled.

"You're hormones are still adjusting from pregnancy, the tenderness will go away." She said sympathetically with a gentle smile. It took about ten minutes to feed her. "Pat her a little harder, you want to move those gas bubbles." Jimin did as instructed. He felt bad though, like he was patting her too hard. She was so tiny and fragile...and new. "There you go, well done!" Jimin smiled When the nurse praised him for getting her to burp.

As much as he whined about being pregnant, he is happy to be the mother of such a beautiful baby girl.
