Chapter 36

Brie's joy in her new daughter was short lived, because she had another contraction. "Oh, shit!"she said as Nicole took little Jordan from her and her feet rose into the air again courtesy of Tina and Kristen.

"What's wrong?" David demanded.

"Nothing, David. You're having twins", Tiffany said.

Brie screamed again, pushing the other child out with everything she had. "We've got more curls, you two. Keep pushing, Brie, it's almost here."

She took a deep breath and pushed again, trying not to scream any more. Screaming didn't help with the pain, she knew that. This wasn't her first pregnancy.

"The head is out, Brie. One more push and will have shoulders and gender. PUSH!"

She pushed again, using bracing against the strength of David's chest and pushing against the hands of Tina and Kristen. The next thing she heard was the cries of another baby. "It's a boy, Brie, you have another beautiful baby boy." Tiffany wrapped him in warm towel and handed him to her.

"Jacob", David whispered in Brie's ear. "Our Jacob Micah."

Brie was moved from the tub to her and David's bed while that babies were being cleaned up and David cut their cords. The house Doctor came to the room and checked on Brie and the twins, giving them all a clean bill of health. "You'll be able to get back to your work out regiment in no time, Brie."

"I probably won't. Not until the twins are eating solid food and that only, anyway. David will get to enjoy the baby belly for a little while", she said with a grin. After he cut his children's cords, he came back to Brie's bed side and hadn't left. He smiled at her comment.

"You're beautiful no matter what you look like", he told her.

"Doctor, can he get in bed with me? I'd like to have my husband hold me for a bit without the huge stomach I've had the past couple of months."

"There's no harm in it as long as you too don't start fooling around. No sex for six weeks."

"Yes, Doctor. We know", David said.
