Tina submitted to a perfunctory exam. She was recovering to Dr. Wilson’s satisfaction. The doctor even helped her get to her feet and shuffle to the adjacent bathroom, where Tina peed for what felt like an eternity.
Dr. Wilson was gone when she came out but the same nurse from earlier was there to help her to her bed. Tina felt like pulling her arm away, but she didn’t.
“Thanks,” she said shortly, looking at the nurse’s name tag, addressing her by her name in an effort to be polite. “Louise.”
“No thanks are necessary, I’m just doing my job. Want some more light in here?”
Tina nodded and tried to find a more comfortable position while the nurse opened the blinds and let the sunlight in.
“I want my baby.” There was a plaintive note in her voice, but this was tortuous. “Please, just give him to me?”
“Of course! But he’s sleeping right now — I just looked in on him. I can still bring him, if you’d like… but there’s someone else who wants to see you. I came in to ask if you wanted to see anyone right now.”
“Bette?” Tina said hopefully. “Send her in!”
Louise smiled at her. “I thought you’d say that.”
She stepped outside with a “one second” finger motion.
Bette appeared in the doorway with Kit and Angie in tow.
Tina grinned at her baby girl and held out her arms. Angie skipped over and tried to climb on the bed. Tina winced as Angie’s sharp little elbow mashed into her thigh as she tried to get situated.
Bette looked surprisingly well-rested, and so content, she was practically shimmering with happiness. Her smile was infectious and Tina smiled back.
“Hey, girl!” Kit looked exhausted. Tina wagered running around after Angelica had been more difficult than Kit had expected. She made a mental note to do something nice for Kit after things settled down.
Kit was holding up something for her to view.
“My bag!” Tina laughed. “You brought it!”
“We brought it for you,” Angelica said self-importantly, cutting Kit off as she was trying to speak.

that was a very well written chapter..loved it..just awesome..anxious for the nxt chapter
So good. Is Angie going to be jealous? And did I miss some foundational B&T issues here or are B&T finally fully in sync now?
I’ve never read 25 pages before, but it was so exciting I couldn’t stop!
Just great!
Very sweet to give T & B some nice new family members!
Wow!! This was long, I mean 25 pages wow, but was so good, I just love it and Tina ohhh god.PPS
I so loved it!!!! I do hope that this was not the end of this wonderful sotry. Omalley, having Tina yelling at Bette was so funny. Thanks PPVS
Baby Ethan has made his presence know to the world and in a safe manner. Finally, we are getting to see someone from Tina’s side of the family come to her. I love Ethan’s name and am happy that the birth went smoothly.
Marvelous chapter!

hehhehehhehehhe…….. that was hilarious.. gr8 chapter.. post SOOOOONN plz.. i hope i’m 1st
That was great! I could totally imagine Tina yelling at Bette when she was having the baby! Can’t wait to see what happens next! PPS:)
Where have you been all my life. That was the truly the best ff I’ve read in a long, long time. You’ve got labor and delivery down perfectly. All that Tina went through and all that grumpiness is EXACTLY how it is. Did you just have a baby> Bette and Tina’s interactions seemed so real and so delightful. And you write so well.A very grateful reader. Thank you.
wow, that was like a trip down memory lane for me…especially tina getting all shitty with bette during the birth and not wanting to push…hilarious!!! and the wanting to get out of the hospital asap; i did what tina did pushed them to let me go…funny bette falling over but sad the camera broke…and i’m watching an old movie, ‘Breakfast in Hollywood’, hilarious stuff. loving the story, pps.
Whew, you scared me with the summary, omalley. I was wary as I clicked on each page, fearing another unexpected tough dramatic test for Tina & Bette. Thank God it was just the long, agonizing birthing process! Tina’s still testy but she and Bette really seem happy and content, for a change. Thank you for this 25-page gem, omalley! Please don’t stay away too long again. :>
This was *brilliant*. I loved the whole thing, from the Planet to the hospital (loved that labor scene) to the end and Aunt Leslie’s sage advice. You got some of everything in here, and I love the humor. Thanks so much for the post, I loved it. Post soon!
I so hope this is not the end. I love how you write B&T. Their dialog is so realistic. I loved Tina’s behavior during the birth–poor Bette couldn’t catch a break :). Thanks for the post, hope to see you soon.
Bringing up the rear…the wait was more than worth it! Had to read in shifts since I kept getting interrupted. I could visualize everything you wrote–the tone, the expressions. All the characters are true to form. And we finally meet a member of Tina’s family and get an explanation about her folks! This was soo good! Don’t let the length lull you into thinking you can take a break from posting! Ethan…sweet!
All the while reading I was smiling and holding back tears, so well written and enjoyable.
“Helena, what are you doing?”
Helena looked up, guiltily. “I was looking for my nail file. It’s the sharpest thing I have.”
Tina stared at her.
“You know… to cut the umbilical cord with.”
Oh, hell no. Tina smiled at Helena. “Helena? If you don’t stop what you’re doing right now, I’ll take my own nail file, and stab you with it.”
Hahahahahahahhaahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahaahahhaahahahah rotflmao
