I was super excited once the staples were removed and I was given the clear to get out of bed, and live normally. Well, sort of. I still couldn't carry anything, but Anthony and still could not have sex. Esme had assured me that those restrictions would probably lifted on my six week check-up.
Anthony was doing great as well. He was perfectly healthy and was now three weeks old. He still woke up every few hours during the night, though he did stay awake for about an hour longer. He especially enjoyed being held and rocked.
"How are you, love?" Edward asked as he arrived home from school. He went to class twice a week for a few hours, spending the rest of the time at home with us.
"Happy!" I said lowering the waistband of my pants for him to see my scar.
"They removed the staples!" He noticed leaning down to give me a kiss. "What did the doctor say?"
"Well, I can use stairs now." I pointed out causing us both to laugh. Edward had banned me from stairs and had been carrying me up and down everyday.
"Anything else you can do?" He asked flirtatiously leaning into me his hand on my thigh.
"Not yet," I sighed with a frown giving him a kiss. "Your mom says that I'll be given the go ahead at my six week check-up."
"You asked my mom?" He questioned with wide eyes.
"We're women, we talk about those things." I pointed out as he chuckled.
"It's just weird, you and my mom talking about our sex life." He shuddered causing me to laugh. He really did seem uncomfortable with the situation.
"Edward, Esme is more like a mother and friend to me than your mother. I can't talk to my mom, and Alice and Rose don't know about these things." I explained as he kissed my temple.
"I know it's just gives me the creeps." He admitted as Anthony began to cry from the small bassinet we had attached to the play pen. "I'll get him." Edward offered as I got up first.
"You better wash your hands." I warned as I went to pick up my son. I didn't let anyone, not even Edward, pick him up without first washing their hands.
"I'm not dirty," Edward joked going to the downstairs bathroom to wash his hands.
"Yes, you are." I argued back as he arched an eyebrow.
"I can show you just how dirty I can be." He whispered in my ear when he approached me from behind.
"Edward," I tried to warn, but it sounded more like a moan.
"Yes, love?" He inquired pretending like nothing had happened as he washed his hands.
"You're such a tease." I complained handing him Anthony. "Now you can change his diaper."
"Isn't he hungry?" Edward asked. I knew he was trying to get out of changing him.
"Just ate about half an hour ago." I stated happily as he pouted.
"You mean I missed it." He sighed as I nodded taking out the diaper and and wipes.
"You just want to sit there and look at my chest." I pointed out crossing my arms across my chest. Edward had a tendency to watch me feed Anthony, since I had been pretty good about keeping my body hidden from me. I still hadn't lost all the baby weight, and I no longer had him as an excuse.
"It's a very beautiful scene." He complimented with a sexy wink.
"They're huge Edward." I stated in defeat. I had gone from a 34B to 36C, and I wanted my old breasts back.
"I think they're lovely, my love." He cooed kissing me.
"Right" I replied sarcastically just as my brother and Jasper walked in.
"Hey guys!" Emmett bellowed causing Anthony to cry.
"Emmett," I scolded. "He had just quieted down."
"That kid needs to wake up, all he does is sleep." Emmett complained approaching Edward and his nephew.
"Wash your hands both of you." I ordered as Emmett and Jasper walked towards the bathroom. "And Edward he still has to be changed."
"I think Emmett needs some nephew quality time." He suggested just as Emmett came out.
"Can I hold him now?" He inquired.
"You sure can, and you get to change his diaper." Edward announced handing Anthony over to Emmett.

As I handed my son over to his uncle, Emmett looked lost. I had told him to change his diaper, and he looked like I had told him to solve a nuclear physics problem. He took a deep breath looking down at Anthony who was squirming, because he had to be uncomfortable in a dirty diaper.
"I can do this." Emmett said straightening up. "It's a diaper. How hard can it be?"
"I have got to see this." Jasper said with a laugh, Bella covered her mouth to keep from laughing.
"Alright, big boy." Emmett said placing Anthony on the blanket Bella had laid out on the couch. He surprisingly got his onesie off easily pulling the sticky tape off the diaper.
"Should we warn him?" Jasper asked as I shook my head.
"He knows how to do it." I mumbled as we all stood back to watch.
Emmett removed the diaper reaching for the wipes when a Anthony got a little carried away a stream of pee landing straight on Emmett's chest. "What the hell?" Emmett screamed loudly causing Anthony to cry.
"Emmett, don't scream." Bells said rushing over and pushing her brother out of the way. "You scared him."
"He peed on me." He complained as Bella rolled her eyes. I held onto Jasper as we both laughed hysterically.
"Come on, Emmett. Even I know that little boys pee, because of the cold air." Jasper explained unable to start laughing.
"You could've warn me. You both could have." He glared. "Remember payback is a bitch."
"Language!" Bella seethed with Anthony back in her arms. His face still a little red from crying.
"He doesn't understand." Emmett complained taking off his short and throwing it at Jasper's face.
"But he will one day, and its better to practice now." Bella added eyeing him. "My son will not learn that language."
"Don't get your panties in a twist." Emmett added as Bella shot him a dirty look.
"Go change, Emmett, and stop being a big baby." She ordered as Emmett went upstairs to wash up. Everybody always kept a change of clothes at our house, because they stayed over quite often.

Later that night I walked into the room finding Edward on the bed shirtless with Anthony on his chest. I smiled at the scene before me grabbing a camera I always kept nearby to capture the memory. "Join us, love." Edward said looking over at me and extending his arm.
I carefully climbed on the bed snuggling into his side. "We're going to have to wake him soon to feed." I sighed watching my son sleeping peacefully.
"I don't think that would be necessary, you know he's a little clock. Every two hours on the dot." Edward joked as I nodded. Anthony was not one to miss a feeding. "Not that I blame him."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Well, I would love to take his place. He's the only one you let snuggle into you." He explained as I turned red.
"I just don't want to make things harder. I mean we still have to wait two weeks." I answered not being able to look at him. "Plus I'm still not back to my form."
"Why would I care?" He questioned sitting up and putting Anthony in the small crib we had in our room. It made it easier to feed him during the night.
"Because, I'm still fat." I sighed as he returned to the bed.
"Love, you are beautiful. There's nothing wrong with your body." He replied kissing me. "I still find you completely irresistible."
"You're just saying that." I complained as he looked at me sternly.
"Isabella Marie Cullen, listen to me." He ordered his lips inches from mine. "I love you for who you are inside. Nothing is ever going to change that, and I can't wait until I am able to make love to you again."
"Edward." I whispered kissing him sensually. "I can't wait either."
