I am on a role! Enjoy (^_^)
Sophia's POV
I woke up, feeling like a thousand ton weights pasted me to the hospital bed. It felt like someone had stabbed me in my torso and lower back. The first thing on my mind was Janine. I was so drugged, I couldn't talk straight.
" Look, she's waking up." Lilly said to Hank, who was sitting in the doctor's rolling chair, holding Janine.
" Ugh..." I moaned.
" Mom, Janine's diaper needs to be changed and I'm...not an expert of "
"Oh brother! Its like dealing with your dad all over again! Call the nurse so she can show you how to change her diaper. I'll take care of Sophia." I could barely keep my eyes open.
" How ya feelin' hun?"
" Lilly?"
" Just call me mom, okay?" She said sitting next to
" Okay...whats going on? Whats the stats on me?"
" Well the surgery was a success, and the baby is just fine."
" Oh, thank God."
" How do you feel?"
" I feel like someone cut me open and took all my insides." I joked. I could actually enjoy life. Besides the surgery, I felt so happy.
" Thats how ya' supposed to feel...I think." Lilly joked.
Janine's cry interrupted the conversation.
" Darling, let me do it."
Hank picked her up and waited for me to get up. I sat up slowly to try to avoid as much pain as possible. I held my arms out to take her, then I spread my legs to lay her down in between them.
" Lilly, could you pass me the diapers, wipes and baby powder, please?"
" Sure hun. Hey, I will be right back Im going to the cafeteria. Do ya want anything?"
" No thanks Mom." Me and Hank both said at the same time.
" Henry! Henry wake up, we need to leave the new parents alone." Henry Sr. quickly woke up from his light slumber and stood up from the chair to follow Lilly.
" I needed to get some coffee anyway. Take care of my Grand-baby!"
" We will.
Her diapers were so small, considering her small size. I unwrapped her and unbuttoned her one-sies (if thats what you call them) . I took off her dirty diaper and tossed it in the waste basket next to the computer stand. Janine's cry got louder once I exposed her bottom. I took the baby wipe and gently wiped her bottom. She cried more at the cold and wetness of the cloth. I then tossed it into the waste basket. The smell made Hank almost jump out of the chair. He looked like he was going to vomit.
" Babe, stop it! Its not that bad of a smell!"
" That is the most vile thing I have ever smelled! You know that I have heightened senses!"
" Oops, I forgot." I chuckled which hurt a little bit.
" I wonder when Storm and Logan will arrive."
" They will be here soon." I said while a tiny bit of baby powder in the new diaper. Her diapers were so small. I had never changed a diaper, or held an infant, let alone one as small as her. I automatically knew how. I had guessed it was my maternal instincts coming it. Once I put a fresh diaper on her, she began to calm down. I wrapped her back into a burrito (as they'd call it) and cuddled her. I laid a kiss of her soft forehead. I knew from that moment, that motherhood had just begun. Even though I had only experienced it for a short time, I loved spending time with my new family.
