Im sorry about the last chapter!!! I told you id make it up to you and so
now I am!! As soon as I posted the last chapter I thought I had to make it
right.! So here goes.
Cole had seen the look on the doctors face as he held his newly born son. The tiny figure was an eerie shade of blue. Cole had immediately known what was wrong. When phoebe first fell pregnant they had been told of complications that they might experience. One possibility was that the baby could die during or Before birth. He looked down at Phoebe just as she collapsed. The heart rate monitor dropped suddenly and nurses ran to her side. As soon as they started to relieve her of the restricted blankets the heart rate rose again. The midwife who had been holding the Dead baby was now standing, trying to control the afterbirth. Suddenly she called to the doctor.
"Sir! I need you over here!" the tone that she was speaking in was chilling and icy. The doctor came over at the urgency of the nurses voice.
"its another one." Cole's eyes showed intense confusion.
"What do you mean?" to this the doctor only replied:
"Did you know your wife was having twins??" Cole was even more baffled. Giving him no more time to answer, the doctor said.
"mustn't have shown up on the ultra-sound. O.k now we have to get it out. Its breech."
"Doctor, we cant! She's unconscious"
"then we need to get some people down from OR."
"Will do doctor." The nurse ran out of the room. The doctor tried to calm Cole's nerves.
"O.k. There is another baby in there and we have to get it out. Were getting people from the OR to perform an emergency c-section."
"What about Phoebe?"
"She has slipped into what we call an 'overwhelmed coma' when the muscles relax from pushing out the baby sometimes the brain thinks 'well ive done my part im gonna shut down for a while and re-cooperate' so it does and women usually come out of them in under 24 hours" the doctor then produced a long needle.
"Whats that for?" Cole asked, still blown away by this new intervention. Another baby!!
"Local anesthetic. Although she most likely wont wake up for a while to come, but we cant risk her waking up on the table."
Cole felt all the blood wash to his head, but he couldn't keep his eyes off Phoebe during the procedure. He never took his eyes off her, and held her hand during the whole thing.
Meanwhile Piper, Leo and Paige were waiting anxiously. Piper was taking comfort in her husbands shoulder and Paige was pacing nervously. They had been informed on Phoebes situation when the nurse came to talk to them after she had gotten the OR doctors.
"I still can't believe it," said Paige suddenly. "Twins! God why wasn't this picked up on Phoebes ultra-sound."
"Paige, not all ultrasounds are 100% right. I mean mine told us that we were having a little girl! And look what we got"
"I know Piper. im just so worried."
"We know Paige. we all are.' Said Leo trying to comfort both women.
"She's gonna be fine."
Cole had been almost sick with worry for Phoebe and the Baby. As he held her limp and lifeless hand in his, his mind flashed through all of the significant things in their life together. A wave of sadness crept up on him for their deceased son. To think that he would never see the beauty of the world and his Parents. The doctors had been working for less than 20 minutes when the surgeon announced the arrival of the newborn child.
The doctor held the little slimy bundle in her arms. It wasn't moving it wasn't breathing 'Ohhh god please not this one too' Cole thought to himself. But the surgeon gave the baby a little slap on the rear and the little bundle squirmed. It let out a loud squeak. Cole's heart must have stopped beating for at least a minute once the doctor said.
"Congratulations Mr. Turner, you have a daughter." The nurse then handed him the little miracle. He was getting blood and gunk all over his clothes, but he didn't care! Here in his arms was the most beautiful and wonderful baby in the world and it was his! He and the woman he loved had created her. He couldn't believe it.
The nurse then showed him how to wrap the baby and then he went out of the room to show off his newfound happiness.
Piper, Paige and Leo had heard the little squeal and knew that the newest member of the family had arrived. They didn't have to wait long and before they knew it out of the room came a doting daddy carrying the tiniest baby that pPper had ever seen.
"She's as beautiful as her mommy." Was the answer to the question that had been on there minds. A small tear dropped from Cole's eye as he said this but the huge smile that had been ever-present since he was first given his daughter to hold.
The three ran over and looked at the new arrival. She was indeed as beautiful as Phoebe.

Is that any better???
