The Future of Amazonian Fertility Pt. 8 (Patreon)
Content
Sometime later, it could have been a few minutes or hours that had passed or even days or weeks into the future; Caroline wasn't entirely sure, but she was slowly regaining her senses. Once she felt completely alert, she resumed her exploration of Matilda's womb, searching for anything that she could use as a passage to escape. After aimlessly reaching into the abyss for what felt like an eternity, she finally felt something that encompassed her on all sides; it was the uterine wall. Upon realizing that there was no way to escape, Caroline unleashed her anguish, forcing her heavy and sluggish legs to kick outwards through the fluid until she made contact with something solid; the placenta. After landing a few kicks Caroline could feel a strange pressure all over her body; it felt like the walls of her organic prison were being pressed against her body, like she was being rubbed all over from the outside.
As Caroline tried to process what was happening to her, the cord attached to her started to pulsate, pumping her stomach full of nutrients. The agitated woman tried to pull at the cord, tried to stop the flow of fluid entering her stomach, but she quickly found herself becoming more relaxed with each passing second. Her arms and legs grew heavy and she could barely keep her eyes open as her rage vanished. Try as she might, she couldn't even remember what had gotten her so upset as an involuntary yawn overcame her, causing her to take a deep breath of the fluid.
Within seconds of her rebellion Caroline lost consciousness and was entering yet another deep hibernation. All around her changes were taking place: the placenta was gradually thickening, growing larger by only a few centimeters, but still becoming bigger with each passing day to ensure that she would receive the sustenance needed to survive her next two trimesters.
---Six Months Later---
While Caroline slept in Matilda's womb, work continued to progress in the research facility. The Amazon scientists were busy perfecting Matilda's prenatal supplements while the nurses and other doctors present monitored their effects on the Amazon volunteers. Even though Dr. Devereux was pregnant, she stood right alongside every volunteer through doctor visits and ultrasound readings. She may have joined their ranks, but she didn't see herself as a volunteer and refused to take any time off until her fellow scientists came to her on a cold morning eight months to the day she unbirthed Caroline and told her that it was time to take her maternity leave.
Despite being eight months pregnant, Matilda hadn't even realized that she was approaching the glorious day she would be reunited with her baby. So, with a heavy heart, she stepped down from officially overseeing her research and joined the volunteers. However, unlike every other pregnant Amazon in the facility, she retained certain rights and benefits that the other women did not have. For instance, she still had vacation days and wanted to visit her mother who still lived in Honshu before she gave birth.
Before Matilda could be cleared to board an airplane, the Pannonian government demanded that she recieve an ultrasound to ensure that her baby was developing and could handle a flight. The pregnant doctor had scoffed at the notion of needing an ultrasound. After all, the little kicks Caroline gave her every few weeks told her that the girl was doing just fine, but after talking to Ajnácska, and a few of her other favorite colleagues, she realized it would be exciting to see how the once proud and stubborn Dr. Caroline Miller was doing inside of her womb. So, Matilda scheduled her own ultrasound with Ajnácska for the next morning and retired to her room, cupping her pregnant belly.
Around seven in the morning, Matilda sat in the medical quarters of the subterranean area of the facility. She had her shirt lifted, exposing her bulging belly as Ajnácska rubbed a thick solution over her round stomach. She waited patiently for her friend and fellow physician to finish applying the solution to her massive baby bump. In truth, Matilda couldn't help but admit that it felt nice to be given a light massage. It wasn't long after Caroline was unbirthed that she lost the ability to reach the bottom of her belly; she had literally been nine months pregnant the moment she exited the operating room that fateful day so many months ago. Speaking of Caroline, it seemed that the rubbing had awakened her briefly.
"She's kicking." Ajnácska observed with a smile.
"Yeah, my little Caroline has been trying to get out since the day she went in." Matilda smirked, causing both women to laugh like fools.
"If you don't mind me asking, why are you keeping her name?" The older woman asked, genuinely curious.
"I think it's a very cute name. It fits her perfectly." Dr. Devereux paused before continuing, wondering if she should tell her friend her plan. Finally, she worked up the nerve to speak her mind. "But she's going to be taking my last name. That's why I'm flying out to have my daughter born overseas. It will all be made official by a birth certificate issued in Honshu."
"But if my government finds out-" Matilda raised a finger, silencing Ajnácska.
"Ajnácska, you are one of my most trusted colleagues and friends. The Pannonian government has gotten exactly what I promised them; a cure for their population's decline. I promise you that nothing will happen to me, or by extension, yourself."
"But Matilda, they want Caroline to be born in Pannonia! You know that if she retains her intelligence that they want her to be a citizen!" The older woman exclaimed.
"That's why I want you to set my due date for approximately three weeks from now, which is a week after I'm supposed to return from giving my lectures on my latest breakthroughs in Honsho." Dr. Devereux explained with a grin.
Ajnácska looked over at the pregnant doctor with a knowing smile. "I see, that way if a certain little lady gets uppity and you have a 'premature' birth, the pencil pushers can't object."
"Exactly." The expecting mother replied with an air of smug superiority. "They're getting exactly what they want but my baby is my property."
"I understand wholeheartedly. If there is anything else you want me to do before you leave, just say the word and I'll gladly do it."
"I appreciate the offer, but that should cover all the loose ends. Now, since we've gotten that important issue out of the way, how about we have some fun and take a peek at Caroline?" Matilda gazed down at her round, glistening stomach,
"I thought you'd never ask." Ajnácska replied, grabbing the probe from its holster and bringing it up against Matilda's massively bulging belly.
Matilda couldn't help but giggle as Ajnácska ran the wand shaped device across her orb shaped stomach. Even Caroline was stirring due to the various vibrations which the wand produced. It used echolocation and each wave of sound sent into the womb was bounced back the moment it hit Caroline. Needless to say, the Little Geneticist was confused by this inconceivable invasion of her tiny tranquil space in Dr. Devereux's womb and started kicking against the walls of her organic enclosure. Even with all the activity in the womb, an image of Caroline was starting to form on the monitor which was on the wall. Despite the short burst of pain which came from her womb, Matilda Devereux looked positively amazed to see the picture of her future daughter forming before her very eyes.
As Matilda's body fed Caroline a steady stream of hormones to help the unborn woman go back to sleep, Matilda couldn't believe how adorable she looked curling back up into the fetal position like that in her stomach. A lone tear fell from her eye as she gazed at the image. Even though she was a scientist first and foremost, and knew that she was simply looking at an image of a Little who had basically been transplanted into her womb via unbirthing, her Amazonian hormones were getting the better of her mind. What was strictly supposed to be a scientific experiment was now becoming so much more beautiful and complicated to the expecting mother.
“Oh my God." Dr. Devereux uttered just a whisper. "I can't believe how beautiful she is."
"Congratulations, mommy!" Ajnácska announced, patting her friend's pregnant stomach with her gloved hand.
Matilda brought a hand to her eyes, wiping away the tears that were threatening to spill from her eyes. It took a moment or two, but the doctor was finally able to regain her composure and looked over at Ajnácska, who was smiling at her.
"I don't know what to say." The pregnant doctor said.
"There's nothing quite like truly seeing your child for the first time." Ajnácska stated, saying nothing more as she sat there on her small stool, waiting for her friend and colleague to speak.
"I thought this whole thing was a waste of time and resources, but I completely understand why the volunteers kept asking for ultrasounds every week." Matilda replied, chuckling to herself.
"They obviously couldn't go a week without seeing their future children; It's such a heartwarming moment that seems to cement the fact that these women are really about to become mothers." Ajnácska explained.
Dr. Devereux nodded, watching the image on the screen as Caroline subconsciously brought her little fist towards her face and pushed her thumb into her mouth.
The older woman smiled at her pregnant friend while remembering each and every exam she had given during the past year. Each reaction was sweet and wholesome. None of the Amazons knew about the fact that they had basically biologically stole away a person's life the moment they were impregnated with the Little men and women who had naively volunteered for the study. Few probably would've cared and some, even when confronted with the sight of a pair of breasts on their future daughters, simply chose to ignore such an odd sight on what should've been a fetus. Despite knowing the truth, Ajnácska couldn't help but feel her heart swell every time she saw the reaction on the face of an expecting mother; this time was no different.
"Soon you'll be with mommy." Matilda Devereux muttered to herself as she caressed her bulging belly.
Ajnácska placed the probe back into its holster and picked up a clipboard. She glanced over the information while Matilda cupped her pregnant belly and started to wrap things up by reading the information out loud.
"You'll be happy to know the blood test shows that your baby has been getting all of her nutrients." Ajnácska said, getting back into her professional mindset.
"What about the prenatal supplements? I want to know if there's been any adverse reactions." Matilda spoke up, for the first time in months, a tiny bit of anxiety was evident in her voice.
"From what I've seen on the monitor, and based on what all the tests have shown, I feel quite confident that she's still one hundred percent Caroline both mentally and physically." The older woman assured her friend.
"I can tell from the ultrasound that there hasn't been any changes in her physical make up, unlike some of the volunteers who were implanted with the younger Littles." Matilda observed in a clinical tone.
"Those women are truly blessed. They're going to have a baby that is there own flesh and blood." Ajnácska added, sounding quite envious of those particular women.
Matilda scowled. "Caroline will share my blood!"
"I didn't mean to insult you." Ajnácska replied, taken aback by her friend's outburst.
The heavily pregnant woman sighed. "I shouldn't have snapped at you. I'm just feeling a bit jealous, I guess."
"You're still going to become a mother and she will always be your baby." Ajnácska offered.
"I know, but it's just not the same as some of those women. Their babies were Littles, but will be born Amazons and will go on to have their own children when the time comes while Caroline will never have children of her own."
"That may be, but you know a girl like Caroline is going to need a father with a firm hand. And, she's probably going to get lonely without a brother or sister to play with." Ajnácska winked, trying to clarify her statement without being too obvious.
"You're absolutely right! Caroline will be the start of what is going to be a very large family!" Matilda boasted, feeling energized by this realization.
"That's the spirit!" Ajnácska smiled. "So, how are you feeling about giving birth on the thirtieth?"
"That sounds perfect." Matilda answered as Ajnácska wiped the jelly off of her belly.
"Great, I'll see you in three weeks from now." Ajnácska winked once more while throwing away her gloves.
"I'll be there." Matilda chuckled as she got up from the chair.
The moment she got to her feet Caroline shifted in her womb, almost knocking the pregnant doctor off balance. She slowly regained her balance as the burst of activity coming from within her womb ceased. Matilda gazed downwards at her protruding stomach and started to gently rub her belly.
"Soon, Caroline. I know you're impatient, but very soon you'll be reunited with mommy." Matilda cooed.
"Good luck with your lectures and remember to have fun out there!" The older woman called out to her friend as she walked out of the room.
“I will!" Matilda replied as she walked out the door and proceeded to make her way towards the elevator.
---A Week Later: On The Island of Honshu---
After landing in Honshu, Matilda spent a busy week catching up with her friends from school and eventually made her way down to the tiny hamlet of Kuroi Ishi. She was only able to spend two days at her mother's house, chatting with the woman who had nurtured her curiosity and interest in the old ways of Honshu. Unbirthing Littles wasn't as widely practiced as it was in the olden days before Honshu was opened up to the rest of the world, but women like her mother kept the tradition alive by teaching it in the various universities throughout the land. The fact that she was carrying on her mother's work was one of the reasons why she had returned home; Not only would she be giving birth to what would be her Mother's granddaughter, but she also needed to give a lecture at her alma mater.
That was why she was standing slightly backstage, waiting to be introduced to the students who would one day shape her homeland. Matilda Devereux rarely felt nervous, but as she stood behind the curtain, she felt like her stomach was full of butterflies. It was a sensation she had never experienced before and she could only attribute it to anxiety. Why was she anxious? She couldn't say. This was her first speech and it wouldn't be her last, but something didn't feel right in her gut. It felt like things were moving around, but Caroline wasn't stirring.
'I remember now. My stomach is probably killing me because I stopped taking my prenatal supplements.' The pregnant doctor thought as she caressed her sore stomach.
"It's an honor for me to introduce our highly esteemed speaker today, who has traveled all the way from Pannonia to talk to us about preserving our population through the ancient methods of unbirth and thus ensuring that our nation has a bright future. This is a matter that will personally affect you, or your friends and family, in one way or another. Our speaker has spent her entire career researching new ways to perfect the medical practice of unbirthing Littles and she has decided to speak with us all about her latest discovery; a promising new supplement which will help every woman rejuvenate her reproduction system!"
A resounding amount of applause interrupted the nine foot tall Amazon man who had been hyping up the crowd for Dr. Devereux. It took roughly thirty seconds for the crowd of young men and women to quit cheering as their clapping slowly faded into silence.
"I'm happy to see you're all so excited to hear what the good doctor has to say. So, without further delay, please join me in welcoming our very own award-winning daughter of Honshu, Doctor of Fertility and Unbirth, Dr. Matilda Devereux!"
Once again, the auditorium filled with a thunderous ovation from the audience as a very pregnant Dr. Devereux made her way to the podium waving her raised right hand. She finally completed the short walk and stood behind the podium, smiling while patiently waiting for the crowd to calm down. It seemed that they were truly excited to hear about her latest breakthrough which made Matilda's smile absolutely genuine.
Most lecture halls she had visited lately were in Europa where she would routinely deal with pseudo intellectual brats who stopped her in the halls to debate with her the merits of her doctorate and her goals as a doctor. Many had seemed to have already written her, and the practice of unbirth, off before she ever took the stage. They not only scoffed at her work, but some of those Europan college kids had argued that Littles were equal to an Amazon. Matilda knew that such thinking was foolish and a complete waste of time; it was literally a sign of how far the schools in Europa had fallen from grace. This was different; she was home and her country was experiencing a resurgence in unbirthing Littles thanks to the groundwork her mother, and other women like her, had laid many decades ago to revive the old ways. Now, roughly twenty percent of the women in Honsho unbirthed Littles in an effort to be able to have actual Amazonian offspring. Still, it wasn't enough and her drug would triple that number if she had her way.
"I'm so very excited to be back here in my homeland, at my old alma mater. It's been over two years since I've spoken on this stage and I'm sure some of you who are studying to become doctors might notice that I am pregnant with a Little!"
A few cheers punctuated the otherwise quiet crowd.
"Now, I know what some of you young ladies are thinking out there as you look at me; that looks extremely painful. Well I'm here to reassure you that it wasn't painful at all and that's due entirely to my latest discovery, but before I start talking about my newest groundbreaking prenatal supplements, I want to give some of you out there a brief history lesson." Dr. Devereux smiled.
"The practice of Unbirthing a Little to promote the health of an infertile woman was once an extremely painful practice that sometimes killed the mother and child, but this was before the introduction of modern techniques and painkillers. Before the modern era, the practice of unbirth had a very high mortality rate. One out of four mothers and littles were lost for every three or four women who succeeded in birthing the Little. This was a fact of life in the feudal ages when a family's strength was typically measured by heads and not wealth. It didn't matter if you were from a farming family or born into a noble family; every family needed progeny to tend their lands and estates. They needed children to carry their name into battle or forward into the future. A farmer needed sons to sow and reap the fields just like a nobile family needed daughters to marry other nobility, thus expanding their own influence. This was why the pastime of capturing the Littles who foolishly came into Amazonian towns from their far flung outposts and tribes to unbirth them was so popular in the past."
Matilda paused, letting that picture resonate in the minds of her audience.
"However, as you may have noticed, only two out of ten infertile women practice the traditional ways of curing infertility by using a Little for their intended purpose. What does modern society do with the cure for infertility? We keep them as living dolls and faux children when they are meant to serve a higher purpose; rejuvenating an Amazon's stagnant reproductive system!"
A roar of applause followed Matilda's heart felt delivery. These people knew that Littles weren't just meant to be play things. They knew that surgery had failed the people of Honshu and no amount of mapping the Amazonian Genome would solve the age old problem of infertility. They, just like Dr. Devereux, were completely convinced that nothing short of stuffing a Little up into a barren womb would save the future of their nation.
"The low reproduction rate and stigma surrounding Unbirthing at the beginning of the modern era was unacceptable to women like my mother who went on to champion new techniques which were coupled with modern medicine. This combination of long lost wisdom and new drugs coming from the medical field saw the mortality rate virtually vanish. Every Amazon who practiced Unbirth ultimately went on to have their very own Amazonian sons and daughters after giving birth to a Little. The records from my Mother's time showed that for every successful Little impregnanation and subsequent birth, there would be two or three Amazonian offspring born from the womb of a once infertile Amazon."
"You're probably asking yourself why I stepped up and took on my Mother's work if women like her practically eliminated the mortality rate. What more needed to be done? Well, my motivation came early in my career when I was caring for patients who had undergone the procedure of unbirthing a Little. The newly impregnated women often complained about how unruly their new babies were despite the fact that the womb of an Amazon is remarkably compatible with a Little's anatomy. Scientifically speaking, it should've been able to naturally soothe the Little."
A sharp pain came from her own stomach, causing Matilda to pause before continuing her lecture. It seemed that Caroline was stirring.
"I recall an incident that occurred when I was caring for one of my first patients that has remained with me for years. I was finishing up an ultrasound when the expectant mother on the table spontaneously started wetting herself in shock. I asked if this was a common occurrence and the woman remained quiet, but nodded her head in shame. She went on to tell me that she normally wore diapers due to how often her Little would kick her in the bladder, but she didn't want to embarrass herself by being in a diaper during her ultrasound. This had a profound effect on me and the image of that poor woman has stuck with me for years. It is unacceptable that a Little can even get away with such nonsense and bring shame upon their future mother when they're in vitro. Every time I ran into a setback, I just remembered that moment of shame and told myself that thousands of other women are forced to endure such pain and humiliation. This fueled my resolve to find a way to tame Littles in the womb and, I'm proud to say that such pain and humiliation will be a thing of the past thanks to the prenatal supplements!"
Another tremendous outpouring of applause and cheers followed Dr. Devereux's proclamation
"With the hormones that every woman in this audience has in abundance and one daily dose of my supplement, any infertile woman can carry a Little with zero complications, zero diapers and zero humiliation!"
Matilda basked in the limelight, relishing all the applause from her future colleagues.
"With my research, every woman suffering from infertility can cure herself with little to no pain! We can finally repopulate our stagnated nation and propel our people into a golden age if prosperity for all!"
"We can-" Matilda was immediately silenced by a sharp pain in her bloated belly followed by a splattering sound on the wooden floor.
Matilda felt a hot fluid flowing down her legs before she heard the puddle that had formed around her shoes. It happened so fast, an incredible pressure had been released as a warm wetness had forced it's way past her pussy lips as she tried to continue speaking. She grew silent as the warm water overwhelmed her panties and created a downpour which had splattered on the floor. Matilda gazed down at the pool of freshly sprayed fluid on the wooden floor and noticed that the bottom of her maternity dress was soaked as the remaining warmth flowed down her thick creamy thighs in twin streams, collecting in her socks and shoes after flowing down her legs. It would be a moment that she would never forget, but she knew that she had to take control of the situation before the audience got the wrong idea.
A stunned silence washed over the crowd who looked on in confusion as Matilda stepped out from behind the podium and displayed the front of her saturated maternity dress. Her initial feeling of shock and humiliation was hidden as she addressed the audience. "As you can see my water just broke which means that I won't be able to finish the lecture. I guess my daughter can't wait to be born." Matilda chuckled.
Everything from that point onwards was a blur to Matilda who found herself quickly seated in a wheelchair and pushed backstage by one of the members of the staff. Under normal circumstances, she would've had to call for an ambulance, but luckily for her the staff had already phoned the hospital down the street and requested an ambulance for her. The staff reassured her that everything would be fine, but she could feel an increased pressure coming from her pelvic area which she tried to ignore as she was pushed down the hall and towards the front of the university. It felt like her body was forcing Caroline out. Matilda attributed this unexpected development to the fact that she had stopped taking her prenatal supplements when she first arrived in Honshu. Truth be told, the pregnant doctor had planned on her body pushing Caroline out, but not during her lecture!
While Matilda was being pushed out of the university and loaded into the back of an ambulance, the Little fidgeting around inside of her was completely awake for the first time in almost eight months and she was reeking havoc.
Roughly ten minutes ago, Caroline Miller found herself forcibly awakened from her deep slumber by the walls of the womb seemingly closing in on her. Equal parts startled and annoyed, Caroline kicked at Dr. Devereux's insides, hoping to piss the bitch off before she fell back to sleep, but something truly unexpected happened; the thing she kicked had ruptured causing all of the fluid to suddenly drain out of the womb. It was a shocking and ground shaking development which literally left Caroline stunned. The drowsiness, darkness and the feeling of the amniotic fluid were all she had known since she agreed to go along with Dr. Devereux's crazy experiment, but now things were rapidly changing.
After finally doing some damage to the horrible giant Caroline wanted to savor her small victory, but the shifting walls of the womb denied her even a second to celebrate. She didn't even have to time to think as her body was forced into a confined, constricting passage. An all consuming panic gripped Caroline just like the massive muscles that were guiding her squirming body further away from the womb that she had called "home" for the past nine months. She feared that she would be smothered to death or even crushed by the pressure coming from the pelvic walls which enveloped her body. It seemed like each and every contraction was threatening to squeeze the life out of her whenever they occured.
Another contraction was choking her entire being, making her clench her eyes shut and lean her head back in agony as a pained scream escaped from her throat. Caroline could feel the muscles ushering her body further down the wet tube before they retracted slightly, relinquishing her body from their death grip and pushing her forward. She opened her closed eyes after the latest contraction passed and was immediately blinded by the brightest light she had ever seen.
'What a minute. There's light!' Caroline was absolutely ecstatic as she realized that she was only a few feet away from freedom!
She wriggled her body with every ounce of strength she could muster, trying to move herself closer to the exit. With every inch gained she swore she could hear voices as literally clawed her way out of Matilda's birth canal. She finally pushed her head out from the tunnel comprised of tight muscles and the voices got louder.
"It's a girl!" An unknown voice announced.
Caroline felt her lower body get squeezed one final time before she was literally pushed out of Matilda's birth canal. It felt so alien to her to feel the cold caress of air on her wet arms and legs. She tried to blindly move her limbs in an effort to sit up when an unknown figure scooped her up from the bedding. The newly born woman wanted to open her eyes and see who was handling her, but the light was so bright it practically blinded her as she struggled to communicate. Her throat felt so sore and seemed not to work properly, she could barely make gurgling sounds.
"Apply the clamps!" A manly voice ordered.
Caroline wondered what the hell he meant by that when she felt a rather odd pinching sensation a few inches away from her body. The pain seemed to stop at her stomach until a much more powerful pain overwhelmed her body. She realized that someone was cutting into her when she heard the sound of scissors snipping away at her umbilical cord.
Everything felt so strange, her lungs demanded that she breathe as she felt her whole body's orientation change. The unseen man had lifted her higher iin the air by her ankles leaving Caroline wondering why she was hanging upside down. Suddenly, a swift hand slapped against her wet ass, causing Caroline to utter an incredibly ear piercing shriek. Her screams quickly turned into sobs as the pain radiating from her backside consumed her; it hurt worse than the muscles that almost crushed her!
"Good, the baby can breath on her own just fine." The mystery man said, handing Caroline off to another set of hands.
Her chest heaved as tears trickled down her puffy cheeks, falling onto her small breasts. Caroline was so consumed by pain that she didn't even realize that the nurses were cleaning her body. They worked slowly and were much more gentle than the doctor as they cleaned the wriggling newborn woman with soft towels.
"Have you decided on a name yet for your little girl?" Caroline heard a soft spoken woman ask while she fought against her sobs until they gradually died down.
"Caroline." Came the labored response from a familiar voice.
"Caroline Devereux." The woman confirmed, writing the name down for the birth certificate that would be printed out.
Caroline felt her facial muscles contorting into a scowl as the blurry figure holding her lowered her down onto something soft that crinkled under the weight of her bottom. It was bad enough that Dr. Devereux was acting like she was a real baby, but the feeling of the unfolded diaper cushioning her ass made her cringe. She had never even considered that she would ever make it out of the womb alive and feeling the diaper getting taped across her hips was enough to piss her off.
She tried to communicate, to explain to the woman diapering her that this was all a big misunderstanding, but the words never came. Once she was properly diapered, the nurse raised her slightly off of the table and lowered her back down onto something even thicker than a newborn pamper. The Little geneticist had no way of knowing that she was laid onto the middle of a soft blanket that had been folded into a triangle. Almost immediately after being laid on the blanket she felt the nurse adjust her right arm, positioning it alongside her body at a slightly bent angle. She didn't know what this woman was doing as she felt the blanket being pulled tight across her chest, pinning her right arm under the fabric. The nurse then proceeded to tuck the edge of the blanket underneath her body, leaving her left arm free. In all honesty, it didn't make any sense to Caroline; she was a grown woman that was being wrapped up in a blanket like she was a gift meant for someone's birthday.
"Wazzu?"
"Awww, baby needs her binky." The nurse cooed, pulling out a white pacifier with a cute cartoon on the front of the shield.
Before Caroline could gurgle anymore words, the nurse pushed the bulb of the pacifier into the newly born woman's mouth and held it in place until the Little's rooting reflex took over. The small woman's face turned pink as she started suckling on the soother. A smile spread across the nurse's face before she resumed swaddling the Little.
Caroline was so distracted by the pacifier she was sucking on that she barely noticed the nurse pulling the bottom of the blanket over her feet. She finally came to her senses as the giant woman finished tucking the thick material into the already folded section just below her chin effectively cocooning the Fertility specialist into the blanket like she was just another baby. Caroline wanted to be pissed off, she wanted to scream and fight back, but the warmth and comfort the swaddling blanket provided her made her feel safe and secure. It was almost like being back in the womb.
"Can I see my baby now?" A slightly winded voice asked from across the room.
"Of course." The nurse replied. "It's probably best that you start breastfeeding her immediately."
Caroline felt sick to her stomach as her entire body was scooped up by the woman who had swaddled her. The perfume radiating from her scrubs told Caroline as much, but it was also her eyes that helped confirm her earlier suspicions; she was in a delivery room surrounded by Amazons in blue scrubs. As her eyes focused on her surroundings, she suddenly realized that it was finally over! She had been born and had finished her part of the deal; she had completed her part in Dr. Devereux's crazy experiment!
"I don't feel like breastfeeding her right now." Caroline heard Dr. Devereux reply as her body was lowered onto the recovering giant.
A smile spread across Caroline's face as she absentmindedly sucked on the pacifier. Dr. Devereux wasn't going to breastfeed her; She was going to hold up her end of the deal! Not only had Caroline helped make history, but she wasn't going to be treated like every Little who had been adopted. This thought alone filled Caroline with happiness as she drifted off to sleep on her new mother's chest.
Matilda Devereux instantly wrapped her hands around her baby, not wanting to let her go. She looked on at the doctors and nurses surrounding her with a look of unbridled pride plastered on her face. It was the look of a woman who had everything she had ever wanted.
To Be Continued...
