Chapter Twenty-two - Thursday July 8th 1999
Following day
Harry Potter, first time father, set aside the empty bottle he was feeding his newborn daughter and carried her to the warm nest that was their family bed. The large bed readily enveloped them along with her other daddy, Draco Malfoy.
"Good morning little one" he whispered and kissed his daughter's soft head. The boys had taken turns getting up with her in the night.
"I think this bed is big enough for another…" Harry said coyly checking Draco's reaction. Before they went to bed last night, Draco was still pretty mad that he had knocked him up again. The blonde just sighed heavily and kissed Rosie again.
"We'll see" he whispered. Today the family had an early check up appointment with the nurse, they would ask her to confirm what Aloysuis Selwyn had suggested but in his heart, Draco knew he was pregnant again. Harry was growing to like the idea of having another child.
"Maybe…" Draco couldn't help but smile when he thought about it, this only made Harry's grin wider "but it's even more work, I think we should get some help"he said practically.
"Like an au pair?" Harry asked, Draco nodded. "Yeah sure, that's a great idea" he said enthusiastically, the blonde looked relieved. "Oh we better get ready!" Harry said as he glanced at the clock on the wall. Time had flown while they snuggled with their daughter.
Before they knew it, they had showered, had breakfast and tidied their bedroom for the appointment and they had welcomed the home-visit nurse into their lives. She was very professional with a warm smile on her freckled face, her hazel eyes shone with compassion, her pink cheeks framed delicately by her copper bangs.
"Uh...yeah I can confirm what your alchemists said Mr Malfoy, you are definitely pregnant again" the medi-nurse paused watching the boys become very pale "take a seat please…" she eyed them carefully.
The pair had an appointment booked with the medi-nurse to do a six week check up on baby Rosie and Draco. The witch that had kindly made a house call, her name badge read 'Medi-nurse/Midwife' and underneath read 'Eileithyia Shephard'.
The muggle-born witch was accepting and kind, humble and dedicated. She had checked over their perfect six week old daughter after which she turned her attention to Draco. He explained the visit to the family alchemist, the powerful magic his mother had performed and last but not least explained what Aloysuis Selwyn had said when we asked why his female parts had not disappeared yet.
She had examined him, with no small amount of medical intrigue, it wasn't every day one saw a female genitalia on male patient. She did the standard tests for pregnancy confirmation and they came back positive. He was most definitely pregnant again.
"Do you know how this occurred?" She gently asked the shell shocked boys. Rosie just snoozed in her bassinet that was setup close to the boys bed, her little hands in loose fists, resting beside her ears. Draco glared at Harry who looked back at him in shocked outrage.
"Don't look at me like it's my fault...alone?!" Harry whispered tersely at the blonde. Draco rolled his eyes and explained their steamy shower reunion.
"So you actually used the vagina?" She asked very enthusiastically, trying her hardest to remain professional, when this was a truly fascinating case of male impregnation, while not unheard of in the magical world, still rare and a once in a career occurrence.
"Yeah" Harry said bashfully he wasn't used to talking about such intimate things with anyone.
"Hmm hmm interesting" she hummed. Silence fell in the room as she took notes in her leather-bound book, her quill fluttering delicately "From my calculations.." she suddenly spoke making Rosie startle in her sleep, Draco instinctively rested his hand on her chest and she relaxed at his touch. "sorry…" she whispered "I can see the pregnancy is still progressing at an accelerated rate but it does appear to be slower than Rosie's, so you have time to prepare a little" she concluded hopefully.
"Do you know when the baby will come?" Draco asked nervously, remembering all too well the pain of the last birth, only six weeks ago.
"My best guess is some time in September" she replied with a shrug "sorry this is just so rare" she finished. The boys each took a deep breath. It wasn't much time but it was certainly longer than last time.
"Thank you" Draco said nodding, taking in this information.
"We will keep a close eye, if you have any usual changes contact me" Eileithyia offered as she packed her things and prepared to leave."Rosie is perfect and growing at a normal rate, very healthy wee girl" she reassured them as they followed her through the large house to the front door.
"Thank you again" Harry said gratefully as they waved and said goodbye. As they closed the front door they heard the tell-tale 'pop' as she disapparated from their doorstep.
"Now what?" Harry asked with a shrug. The couple stood in their entrance wondering what to do next. Draco just looked at him plainly. "Forgive me!" Harry whined wrapping his arms around his lover's waist and pouting his bottom lip. Draco couldn't help but laugh at him.
"Fine…" he grinned and accepted a kiss from Harry. The kiss became passionate and needy but Draco pulled away. "No!" He said firmly.
"But...it's not like you can get more pregnant!?" Harry pointed out. The blonde had heard that before but he nodded and allowed Harry to come closer again. He melted into him, as he began kissing his neck, nibbling at the nook between his neck and shoulder. Draco let out a little moan of pleasure, just as Rosie let out a cry. Harry groaned and released Draco who quickly went to their daughter.
"Daddy's little cock-blocker" he let out a big sigh, this was their life as parents now. Love them more than air but rarely having sex again. He wasn't sure he minded.
