The L Wing – Chapter 187
She has been silent for a few minutes which tends to mean that she is thinking – what a
minute there – she hasn’t hit the freaking roof yet. I look at her – she is still holding me close. I feel good being with her like this and it’s a good sign that she hasn’t got up and started pacing around.
“Bette – did you hear me babe?”
Bette looks at me and smiles
“Yeah -you want the baby at home “
“It would be so much better for all three of us and think about the nightmare of the security arrangements. A whole maternity unit guarded by your goon squad –that’s hardly a great use of resources and its s unfair on the other mothers and babies who could be in the middle of labour and they have to shifted out because of me. I am not having her induced – you know my feelings about that so who the hell knows when I would start – and it could be a long process – I could be there for hours and that’s not fair on anyone. I would love to have her here or even in the White House. It’s more secure – have you thought about that?”
Bette takes my hair and strokes it
“Have you spoken to your Doctors?”
She’s asking me that? She is actually going to consider this?
“Yes – several times – they say that if there are no problems as my pregnancy comes up to full
term there would be no problem. Dr Hope was telling me how the stress levels are reduced for mothers having home births “
Bette nods
“Would you have medical help with us?”
“Yes – we could hire a midwife “
Bette sniffs “More than one “
“What?”
“I would want them on stand by for you – and a specialist team standing by in hospital in case
there were problems. If there was the slightest hint that you or our daughter were at risk there would be no argument Tina – you would be taken to hospital. More than one midwife team on stand-by for the month leading to your due date “

i love being spoiled. get it quite often. t and that baby are in for a ride. thanks.
I’m amazed at Bette’s calm over the home birth suggestion. When did she get over her squeamishness? I’m glad she’s taking it so well, but I really hope she doesn’t lose it when the day comes. I have to agree DC would be the better locale if they should need a hospital, they can turn on the sirens and be there in a few minutes. It will be good to see more of Leigh.
I am very impressed with how things are going in this chapter. I thought that Bette was going to blow her gasket, but she didn’t and that impressed me! That and her finally forgivning Lucy, the pres has come a long way, baby!!
Really love this interaction, they are so mature in their relationship. Sometimes they blow which is clears the air for talks like this…post soon, love this story…
Love these talks they have after fight. Bette is so calm right now about the home birth. Can’t wait to see how things go when Tina’s in labor!!!
nice interaction…loved the way they shared their fears too…way 2 go Bette, what a great mama.
Ally, WOW!!! I love how Bette and Tina really talked about home birth. So Great thanks PPS
Great one AlalyE, loved it. Tina and baby will be so loved and spoiled to pieces. They will not want for a thing. Bette is great right now and I’m surprised she did not opt for a full fledged hospital room, doctors, nurses, the whole ball of wax. PPS.
That was very cute. I hope there aren’t any complications with KP jr. Looking forward to what comes nextpps.
sweet.
Good chapter. They are sweet and cute and funny. Wow Im impressed the way Bette’s react and ok with everthings. Anyway please post soon, thanks!
Wow POTUS accepted the home birth idea quite well. I’m glad she’s willing to give Tina what she needs in order to deal with giving birth. I think it will be better for them to have more privacy, and it should work out better for the security situation. But I don’t understand why they can get a doctor there to look at Tina’s burned hand, but not have a OBGYN/PEDI doctor(s) there in the residence during labor, just in case Tina or the baby start having problems. I wouldn’t be surprised if Bette doesn’t make arrangements for that and also for an ambulance to be there just so they won’t have to wait for one in case they do need it. I mean we are talking about the POTUS here…she should be able to have an entire surgical team standing by if she wanted to! LOL! Thanks for this post Ally. I loved Tina teasing Bette as she was attempting to sleep. I can totally relate to Tina not being able to stop…my sister will carry on a complete conversation in her sleep and say the funniest things, but in the morning she doesn’t remember a thing she said. B&T really needed this down time and it seems to be doing them a world of good. Thanks Ally! More please!
What a lovely chapter! *happy sigh*
a/e–Are you absolutely sure you heard “Dr. Hope” correctly regarding the reduced stress levels of a home birth?? Also, I think “Dr. Hope” might be willing to meet with Bette after hours to discuss Tina’s condition over several martinis???
You gotta love Bette, its all or nothing. Tina and the baby are gonna be so spoiled.
Hitler into kitting…Oh man the mental images won’t go away. LOL
