When all else fails

Chapter 22

I wake in the morning more rested then I have been in a very long time. I call out to see if anyone is awake yet. Mommy is the one to come in to get me up. "How did you sleep princess?"

"That was the best night's sleep I have had in forever mommy"

"I am glad to hear that. You were asleep before you were done nursing. Speaking of. What did you think?"

"It tasted a lot better than I could have imagined. I would like to do that more often."

"We can definitely do that baby. I guess I am going to have to start pumping regularly for when you are home with daddy." She says as she reaches in and picks me up out of the crib. "Oh boy you sure are one wet and messy little aren't you." She gently teases as she bops my nose.

"Sorry mommy"

"Oh, stop that. I love this time I get with you. And now I will get even more." She says as she smoothers me with kisses. "We need to get you ready for the Dr today." I pout thinking about the Dr appointment as she lays me down on the changing table. "What's wrong baby?"

"Just worried mommy."

"I need more then that sweetheart" mommy says as she starts to strip me from my sleeper.

"What if they can't help me? What if everything goes against us?" I whine.

"What if they can. What if they say it is a simple thing and can do it tomorrow." Mommy answers back. As she changes my diaper.

"Your right. I guess we can't stress until we get there. Will I need another shot?"

"Yes, princess you will need another. But this should be your last for a year." As she finishes getting me dressed for the day "now let's go get some breakfast in that belly of yours." As she picks me up and we head out to the kitchen where daddy already has some oatmeal on the table for me. "Hun, we need to stop at little this little that on the way home, Shawnna here needs more diapers."

"Sounds good. Maybe if some little girl is good, we can get her a surprise also."

"Really, I can get a surprise?" I say excitedly

"Yes, mi bambino, but you have to behave."

"I can do that" I say with a grin as mommy places me in my highchair and daddy places the tray with my breakfast. I unenthusiastically eat my breakfast and drink the bottle of formula given to me. Oatmeal has never been a favorite of mine. After breakfast is done Mommy cleans me up and we head out to the car.

After a quick ride we arrive at the Dr office. Mommy comes to the back and pulls me out of the car. As we go in mommy takes me to the waiting area as Daddy checks in. When he is done, he comes and sits by us "Baby you need to know that to us you are Shawnna but legally and especially here at the Dr you are still Sean."

"I understand Daddy" I say. As I sit and watch the other littles there playing.

A few minutes after daddy joins us. The nurse steps out "Sean Townsend?" Mommy stands up cradling me in her arms. Daddy stands and fellows us. We get to a small exam room. "Can you place him on the scale for me. Take his clothes off and leave in just in his diaper." Mommy quickly strips me down to my diaper she stays at the foot of the scale I am on. "Thank you Rose, now I see here he is unregressed. Is he still?" The nurse asked looking at Mommy.

"Yes, that is still the case and we have no intention on changing that. And we would appreciate if you address Sean, as a little girl." Mommy says.

"Oh, I am sorry Let me make a note in her chart. Are we thinking of getting her changed?"

"Yes, that is the plan."
