“So how is everything going with you, Jeneda?” Wearing a white doctor’s coat and geek-chic glasses, the physician glanced up from her clipboard.

“I’ve been good,” Jeneda replied. “Felt the baby kick a few days ago.”

“Congratulations.” She then shifted her attention to Dane, who had accompanied Jeneda to her prenatal appointment. “Did you get to feel it, too?”

“I did.” His voice held excitement. “It was surreal, made me feel like a real dad.”

“Well she’s four months along now, so I’d say your role is pretty firmly cemented.”

Dane smiled in response to this, then squeezed Jeneda’s hand, which she squeezed back in return.

“So today we’ll check your weight,” said the doctor. “Make sure you’re gaining enough, so it’ll boost your chances of a healthy baby.”

“Oh I’ve been gaining,” Jeneda assured her. “A little too much, if I’m perfectly honest.”

“You look healthy to me.” The physician eyed her thoughtfully, gaze coming to rest on her growing belly.

“I feel huge, like a balloon. Which is weird, because I’ve still got five months to go.”

“Could be excess gas,” she replied. “But from what I can see, you’re carrying it all in the front.”

“I told her she looks fantastic,” Dane said. “Sexy, even. But she insists that she feels like a whale.”

The doctor smiled. “I hear that from most of my patients.”

“So you’re certain that everything’s okay…” Jeneda stated. “Because I haven’t felt another kick, in the past three days.”

“Sometimes that happens,” she replied. “But we’ll take a peek, and check things out.”

Lightly nodding, Jeneda leaned back on the examination table. The doctor slipped her hands into a pair of latex gloves, then uncapped a tube, squirting cool gel across Jeneda’s middle. After smoothing it across her patient’s stretched belly, the physician got on with the prenatal exam. Gliding the applicator over Jeneda’s slippery tummy, she turned her attention to the screen, checking out the image which came into view. It was grainy at first, but eventually cleared, so that they could all see the baby.

“Hmmm…” Gazing very intently, the physician studied the screen.

“Everything okay?” Dane asked.

For a moment the doctor remained quiet, tilting the device in her hand until a clearer image could be seen. Then nodding her head, she spoke back to Dane.

“Well the last time you came in, there was only one embryo showing up. The second one must have been shadowed, positioned directly behind the first.”

Dane and Jeneda immediately looked at one another, exchanging a wide-eyed glance of shock.

“Twins,” the physician stated. “It appears you’re carrying two embryos, Jeneda.”

“You must be kidding.” In a daze, Jeneda simply stared straight at the screen.

“Not at all,” said the doctor. “As you can see for yourself, there are two heads, four arms, and four legs. So you are definitely carrying two.”

“I can’t believe it.” Dane focused incredulously on the screen. “We figured one was a miracle in itself, but two?”

“I know you weren’t expecting it,” the doctor said. “But I’m guessing it’s a welcome addition?”

“Heck yes,” he replied, and a tentative smile began to build as the surprise sunk in. “We’re just amazed, is all.”

“That’s understandable.” She offered a smile. “If you’d like to know the sex…”

“Yes, please…” Jeneda said, and as the physician froze an image for examination, they all studied the screen.

“You’ve lucked out,” the MD said. “You’re having a boy and a girl.”

“Wow.” Dane stared at the screen for a few more moments, then looked at Jeneda, who was smiling up at him. “Well I’m amazed, I really am.”

“Happy too, I hope.”

“Of course.” He squeezed her hand. “Baby, you know how badly I’ve wanted kids with you. So knowing we get two in one go, that’s fuckin’ incredible.”

Eyes soft and vibrant now, Jeneda visibly relaxed, then reached up and snagged his collar, pulling him down for a quick kiss. It must have lasted longer than they expected, because on ending the kiss, they noticed the doctor was watching on with a grin.

“Congratulations, you two.”

“Thank you,” Jeneda said. “This really is the best news we could have got.”

“So this explains why you feel like a balloon, as twins really add lots of pelvic pressure.”

“Please tell me it’ll get better…”

“Over time, yes. They’ll shift around and find new positions.” Having finished the exam, the MD wiped the slippery gel off Jeneda’s tummy. “I’d recommend a belly support band, also take some warm baths and stay off your feet as much as you can.”

“I’ve tried to put her on bed rest certain days,” Dane said. “But she’s real stubborn when it comes to that.”

“Because laying in bed is boring,” Jeneda replied. “I’d rather be up doing stuff, even if it’s just puttering around the house, doing laundry or cooking or light housework.”

“Well I’m sure you’ll come to an agreement,” türkçe bahis the doctor said. “But in the meantime, Jeneda, make sure you eat plenty of protein, calcium, and whole grains. I’d like to see you gain more weight too, so don’t be afraid to put on some more pounds.”

“Oh I think that’ll be easy to do,” she jokingly said, and the doctor smiled in response.

Still staring at the screen, Dane seemed unable to tear his eyes away. This led to the doctor making a suggestion.

“I can make printouts if you, like. That way you can show them off to friends and family.”

“We’d love that,” Dane replied, and shifting his gaze to his wife, gave her a deep look of affection.

“Well, looks like we got our work cut out for us, huh?” Jeneda asked, but the twinkle in her eyes let him know she meant it lightheartedly.

“We do,” he replied. “But I honestly can’t wait for it to all begin.”

“Neither can I,” she responded with a smile, and looking back at the screen, gazed at the two tiny fetuses who rested comfortably in her womb.

* * * *

Jeneda awoke to the feel of a palm against her thigh, caressing her smooth skin as if it were the finest silk in the world. Lips curling upward, she indulged in the tender touch, then gradually lifted her lids until he came into focus.

“Mornin’ handsome.” She lightly yawned, then rolled onto her side.

“Good morning.” His gaze focused softly on her, looking deep into her eyes in a gentle way. “Sleep well, my mama duckie?”

Giving a nod, she affirmed that she did.

“Good.” His lips touched down to give her a kiss, lingering just long enough to have her craving more. “Because I really was hoping for some morning lovin’.”

“You honestly still find me sexy?” Hair mussed, belly huge, and feeling like a beached whale, Jeneda just didn’t get how he could be in the mood at all.

“Incredibly so,” he replied. “You’re carrying life inside you…two lives that we created together.”

“But the last time we did it, it was totally awkward. What with my belly in the way, and all…”

“So we’ll try again,” he simply said. “A little creativity is all we need.”

Her eyes lit up at this, and he moved in closer.

“It’s a huge turn on, actually…” Dane’s palm now moved to her belly, gently stroking the tightly pulled skin. “Knowing I did this, that I put two babies inside you is really amazing.”

“Maybe we can go for a third…” A playful sparkle came into her eyes.

“Oh, really?” Dane lifted a brow.

“Only kidding, of course.”

“Too late.” Now rolling onto her, he gave her a silly look. “Prepared to be conquered, M’lady.”

“Uhh, you already did that six months ago.” Looking down at her huge pregnant belly, she added, “And quite well, might I add.”

Dane lightly chuckled. “Well, maybe I’d like to conquer you again.

“I wouldn’t say no.” Her voice was enticing.

Allowing his palms to slide under her nightie, Dane slowly lowered her panties. Once down her thighs and off around her ankles, Dane tossed them aside and onto the floor. Situating a pillow on the bed right next to her, Dane gently coaxed her onto her side, then onto her belly so she was in position. Now able to enter her from behind, he slowly slid into her warmth, then began to thrust in a deep, tender way.

Treating her delicately as if she were a fine piece of china, Dane allowed his fingers to sift through her hair, moving it back so that her neck was exposed. Gently he began to kiss it, while allowing his fingers to run along the slope of her spine. Indulging in all of the various sensations, Jeneda lightly moaned, arching her back so he sunk in deeper. Body taut, muscles flexing, he controlled his every move, alternating between deep and long to short and shallow strokes.

She loved that he kept her guessing, and whimpering lightly as he continued, Jeneda dropped her head onto the pillow. Now muffled by fabric, her moans came out deeper, more primal and urgent as he pushed in.

“Stop holding back,” she impatiently pleaded. “Give it to me right, like you used to do.”

“Sure it’s okay?” Dane asked. “You’re pretty far along now, don’t want to poke anything that I shouldn’t.”

“It’s fine.” She was kind of breathless. “You can go in fully, just hold onto me tight.”

Grasping onto her tummy, Dane really let loose and quickly sped up, hips delving deeper with each rhythmic push. Although passionate in the way that he thrusted, Dane cradled her belly with a tender touch. Not only wanting to ensure it was fully stable, he also liked the idea of caressing it, showing it that adoration he so deeply felt. Not to mention he found it incredibly sexy, her belly all huge and ripe and full of his children. It made him feel so manly to see her bearing his seeds, and dipping his mouth to the back of her neck, he gently nibbled the skin at her nape.

Delirious and open and vulnerable beneath his body, Jeneda squirmed iddaa siteleri beneath him with every stroke. Surging deeper, harder, Dane watched the cues and responses of his wife, loving so much the throes of passion that were on display. Even fully pregnant and with mussed up hair, she was still the sexiest thing he had ever seen. And to know she’d chosen him, that he was the man who got to kiss, touch, see and feel her like this…it made him feel special, needed, and thankful.

Squeezing, hot, and slippery wet, her inner muscles clamped hard around him, signaling how close she was to the edge. He was right there too, and as she arched high he watched her closely, listening to the sound of her yelling out loud. Her body jolted over and over, head thrown back as she keenly cried.

Bright light flared behind his eyes now, blood rushing in his ears as he joined his woman. Engulfed by an all-consuming heat, Dane groaned long and low in his erotic release. His hot seed spilled into her womb, making him shiver almost deliriously at the blissful feel of it all. Even after he’d given the last few pumps, he took a few moments to fully indulge, then slowly pulled out before resting beside her on the queen sized bed.

Although sweaty and hot they embraced, he cradling her body as they joined hand in hand. Everything was heavy with bone-deep satisfaction, and tugging her closer, rested his chin on her head. A few seconds passed before Jeneda felt a familiar flutter, and giggling lightly, brought Dane’s hand to her lower belly.

“You got them active in there,” she joked.

“But that’s okay, right?” Dane briefly paused. “Because if I went too hard, then I won’t aga-”

“Honey, it’s okay,” Jeneda assured him. “It’s perfectly normal, I looked it up.

Relaxing, he loosened his muscles, snuggling her body which was soft and warm. For awhile they just lay there together, then Dane initiated conversation.

“So there’s a poker game, tonight. My cousin Tomohisa is putting it on. Starts at seven, if that’s okay with you.”

“Of course.”

“You won’t be lonely?”

“I’ll hang out with Luna and Ethan.”

“Oh.” A few seconds passed before he spoke again. “So you won’t be home?”

“No, we’ll go out.”

“Well what are you guys planning?”

“Get an ice cream sundae at Mitchell’s, then go to the Exploratorium and check out their latest exhibit. Afterwards, we’ll go to the Seaglass Restaurant upstairs and have some sushi.”

“Sushi, Jen? Isn’t that supposed to be bad for the babies?”

“Well as long as the shellfish is cooked, I’ll be okay.”

“Alright.” Dane eased up on his concern, but only reluctantly.

“I’ll be fine, love,” said Jeneda.

“Just wanna make sure you’re safe, that’s all.”

“And I appreciate it.” She shifted herself to kiss him, planting her soft lips against his own.

“You taste like honey,” he said. “But then again, you’ve always been naturally sweet.”

The smile on her face spread wide, but the grumble of her belly caught Dane’s attention.

“You’re right, it is breakfast.” He lightly smirked.

“I’d really love some of that barbeque chicken you made last night. Pancakes to go with it, and a hot cocoa with plenty of whipped cream.”

“I’m on it.” Dane swung his legs over the side of the bed, then rose to his feet, sliding into his boxers.

Jeneda watched as he headed for the kitchen, gaze focusing on his cute, tight little butt. Seeming to know just where she was focusing, he turned his head to give her a wink. She grinned, then sat up so her back rested against a pillow. Flipping through a Home and Garden magazine, she thumbed the glossy pages.

* * * *

“So you look ready to pop.” Eyeing her belly, Ethan gave a slight smirk.

“Feels like it, too.” Jeneda nibbled at her carmelized pears.

“So Dane was okay with this?” Luna questioned. “Because he’s been pretty darn protective, lately.”

“He wasn’t thrilled I was going out, but what could he do?”

“So you just left him at home?”

“No, he’s playing poker with a cousin.”

“So that’s why you decided to grace us with your presence.”

“It hasn’t been that long, you guys.”

“But long enough.” Ethan sipped at his Tiramisu Martini. “We miss you, Jen Jen.”

“Well I miss you too,” she said. “I never meant to stay away so long, it’s just the closer I get to giving labor, the more nauseous I get.”

“You poor thing,” Luna stated.

“And then there’s the hemorrhoids,” Jeneda continued. “They’re huge and painful, so I’ll probably have the doctor go in and drain them.”

“Too much information,” Ethan uttered.

“Sorry, just sayin’ it’s been quite an ordeal.”

“So which top-knotch hospital has Kitty got you booked at?” He asked. “UCSF, Stanford, or Davis Medical Center?”

“Oh, I’m not giving birth in a hospital,” she replied. “It’ll be an at-home delivery, didn’t I tell you?”

Both deneme bonusu veren siteler Ethan and Luna’s mouths dropped, followed by a lift of the eyebrows which told Jeneda exactly what they thought.

“Well don’t act so surprised,” she said. “It’s not that uncommon, anymore.”

“But aren’t home births dangerous?” Luna asked. “I heard some of these midwifes are total quacks, or just underskilled.”

“I’ve researched for months,” Jeneda replied. “And I decided to not only have a midwife present, but also a doula.”

“And what exactly does a doula do?” Luna inquired.

“Gives emotional support, provides massages, and give the attention I need in order to relax and have a successful birth.”

“Sounds like a good thing,” Ethan stated. “So then I’m guessing the midwife just focuses on delivery…”

Jeneda nodded. “The midwife I picked has over twenty years of experience. She’s Japanese, which Dane likes, and specializes in their traditional childbirthing ways.”

“And the doula?” Spooning crème brulee into her mouth, Luna awaited a reponse.

“She’s black American,” said Jeneda. “Real down to earth, born and bred in Detroit.”

“So your birthing team consists of a Japanese woman, and a Black American from Detroit.” Ethan softly smiled. “How multicultural.”

“It wasn’t planned, they just happened to be the best ones for the job.”

“So what does Kitty think about this decision?” Luna asked.

“Well I’m guessing she’s super on board,” Ethan chimed in. “High society types like her, just love the natural, all-traditional route.”

Luna smirked at Ethan’s sarcasm, then cast a glance Jeneda’s way. Yet instead of answering the question, Jeneda focused her eyes downward, on the pear dessert.

“Wait, please tell me you told her.” Ethan waited.

Slowly shaking her head, Jeneda confirmed she had not.

“But didn’t you tell us that she’d been interviewing doctors?”

“Jeneda nodded. “She basically put together a dream birthing team.

Luna lightly gasped. “Oh man, she’s gonna be so disappointed.”

“I don’t know how to break it to her. She’s been so excited and hands-on with preparing for the twins…”

“Well she won’t be happy, that much is obvious,” Ethan said. “But it’s your body and your decision, so she’ll just have to get over it.”

Pushing out a breath, Jeneda began to imagine what it would be like to break the news. Knowing Kitty, she’d be devastated. Not just a little, but completely. And then their relationship would be strained. Awkward, even. And that would be bad. As conversation turned more lighthearted, Jeneda listened on with half-interested ears. She was there in the physical, but mentally speaking, she was somewhere else.

*****

“But darling, I don’t understand.” Face tight with disappointment, Kitty gave Jeneda a focused look. “I have it all worked out at UCSF medical center.”

“And I appreciate that, I really do,” she assured Kitty. “But having the twins at home is what I prefer. It just seems more comfortable, more natural, more like my style.”

Lowering her gaze to the three-tier stand of finger sandwiches, Kitty seemed to be struggling to understand what Jeneda had told her. Not wanting to look at her mother-in-law’s downcast expression, Jeneda chose instead to focus her attention on the swanky surroundings.

With ornate chandeliers, delicate furniture, and Chantilly lace tablecloths, the atmosphere gave off a completely feminine feel. A proper English tea room, it even had waitresses in period costume, complete with starched white collars and frilly waist aprons. Waiting on Kitty to respond, Jeneda picked up her tea cup and took a sip. Dainty and made from fine china, it was ornately patterned and undoubtedly antique. After some time Kitty lifted her gaze, then took a ginger sip from her own teacup. After setting it down she began to speak, tone calm and controlled, with features relaxed.

“Well I certainly do respect your decision to give birth at home Jeneda, but you must understand the incomparable conditions at UCSF birth center.” Pausing to eye the desserts on display, she focused on a cream puff. “They’ve got an in-house chef, spacious bathrooms with a Jacuzzi tub, a private terrace, and 24-hour room service. A private butler will to tend to your every need, plus you get a personal doula, who does everything from massages to offering physical and emotional support.”

“It sounds wonderful, it truly does,” Jeneda said. “But I think I’ll stick with the at-home experience. Plus, I’ve already got a doula picked out.”

“She has credentials, I take it?”

“Of course.” Jeneda nodded. “And they all checked out. Plus she’s highly experienced with twin births.”

“Well I suppose it could be okay,” Kitty reluctantly said. “But if you insist on going this at-home route, at least give birth in a proper setting.”

“What do you mean?” Jeneda lightly frowned. “The loft is just as safe, if not more, than a medical center.”

“But it’s so urbane and drafty and overly-industrial. Not a proper place to give birth to the twins, you must admit.”

“Well I hadn’t considered anywhere else,” she replied. “It’s familiar and safe and a place I absolutely adore.”
