Work Text:
The twins were peacefully and happily napping in their playpen, which had been set up across half of the livingroom and was scattered with toys, books, and plush animals. The two babies laid sprawled on their tummies, snuggled up to one another on top of their favorite blanket, pacis in their mouths, and completely unaware of the commotion going on in the rest of the house.
Just across the livingroom, which was lit with just the bright mid-morning light coming in through the closed curtains, Lyla and June sat, foreheads pressed together as June rubbed slow, wide circles on Lyla’s taut, gravid belly.
The morning had been a little hectic, to say the least. Right when they were getting ready to take the twins to daycare so that June could head off to work and Lyla could rest, Lyla began having her first contractions, accompanied not even an hour later with a bit of her water breaking. Both the wives knew then that there wouldn’t be any daycare, or work, or rest. It was time for their new baby, and they were both excited.
The two moms, working in between Lyla’s contractions, got the twins fed, into their comfiest clothes, and settled down on the livingroom floor to play with them and enjoy their time as a family. While the TV played soft cartoons and happy music, Lyla rode out her contractions while watching her babies play with their mom, and she couldn’t have been happier things were turning out this way.
Her labor progressed quickly, and after a while, she moved herself to the couch, taking with her one of the big teddy bears they’d gotten as a baby shower gift and one of the soft blankets. Her contractions were getting stronger and closer together, and she needed to focus on her body and how she was feeling. She had settled on the couch with the teddy tucked under her arm and the blanket spread across her lap, closing her eyes and humming gently under her breath as the contractions rolled their way through her and she felt the baby wiggling, pressing lower and tighter against her cervix. This was definitely baby day.
When the twins had had their snack and settled down to watch the cartoons on the TV, June snuck away to check on her wife, kissing her forehead before kneeling down in front of her. “You want me to call Sara?” She whispered after a moment, and Lyla had opened her eyes, looking down at her wife and smiling as she shook her head.
“No…just text her for me and let her know things are happening…I just wanna see how things go, okay?”
“Okay…” June smiled, hearing the determination in Lyla’s voice, and leaned in to kiss her lips. They had met with Sara quite a few times over the past couple of weeks, and had talked about not only Lyla’s last labor, but her upcoming one. Lyla had shared that she felt…stronger, and more connected to her body than ever, and she was looking forward to exploring those feelings when she went into labor.
Watching her wife now, happily humming and rocking her way through her contractions while snuggled up on the couch with a giant teddy bear and a soft blanket, she knew that Lyla hadn’t been lying.
–
Like clockwork, the twins eventually snuggled up with each other and laid down in their playpen for their regular nap, and that was when June had managed to make it back over to her wife to check on her progress. Lyla had shifted from sitting up on the couch to reclining with her head resting against the arm. Her shorts were off, discarded at the foot of the couch, and the soft blanket was spread across her legs, one knee propped up. The teddy bear was also resting on her lap, offering a bit of weight against her lower belly and legs. The two wives kissed and snuggled in the quiet for a moment as Lyla finished humming her way through a contraction and June rubbed slow, wide circles on her belly.
Once the contraction was over, June broke the kiss and smiled, lifting her other hand to smooth Lyla’s hair back from her forehead. “How’s it going?”
“Mm…” Lyla smiled and turned her head to face her, opening her eyes. “It’s really starting to ramp up, but I feel good…I think I wanna try getting up for a bit.”
“Mkay.” June smiled and offered her hands to help her wife up, and Lyla happily took them.
As Lyla wiggled up and rose to her feet, she let out a soft groan and gripped hard onto June’s hands, her eyes fluttering closed and her knees bending a bit as she felt gravity’s pull on her baby deep inside. “Oooohhh…” She all but purred, the blanket falling to the floor and revealing her belly, hanging low between her thighs.
June quickly moved closer and wrapped her arms around Lyla’s middle, guiding her to hang onto her shoulders. “You got this, mama. I’m right here.”
“Mmh…thanks Juney…I love you.”
“Love you too babe…you’re amazing.” June murmured, turning her head to kiss at her wife’s temple.
The two stayed snuggling just like that for a quiet moment, and when the next contraction began to make its way through Lyla’s body, she groaned softly and tucked her nose against her wife’s chest, inhaling deeply.
“Mmh. Here we go…”
“You do what you need to, I’m right here. The twins are fine…it’s all you and the munchkin,” June murmured, gently sliding her hands down her wife’s sides and rubbing at the small of her back and her hips. “You got this.”
Reassured by not only June’s words but by the gentle touches, Lyla nodded, then took in a slow, deep breath, bending her knees a bit more and relaxing her weight against her steady wife.
“Mmh…ahhh…there’s so much pressure…” she half-groaned, her voice muffled against June’s shirt. She remembered the feeling from having the twins, but it was a hazy memory, overtaken by the joy of holding them for the first time. She felt restless, and her pelvis and belly were so heavy and full. June gently swayed back and forth with her, her hands planted on Lyla’s hips.
Inhaling deeply through her nose, Lyla resettled her hips and planted her feet more firmly on the floor, rocking her hips slowly backward and then forward. She felt her belly bump a little bit against her wife and she couldn’t help but smile, despite the intensity of the contraction.
June smiled too, and one of her hands slid around to cup the side of Lyla’s heavy swell of belly. “You are so beautiful…” She whispered softly into her ear, and Lyla softly hummed in response, exhaling a hoarse breath into June’s shirt collar.
As the contraction peaked, Lyla lifted her head and nosed at June’s cheek. June turned her head to meet her, and the two fell into a deep kiss, still swaying gently back and forth. Their breathing fell into sync after a few moments, and Lyla carefully tangled one hand into June’s hair as the kiss lingered. She felt so connected, not just with the baby inside of her and the opening of her cervix and pelvis, but to her wife, and how grateful she was to be taking this journey with her for a second time.
When the contraction finally faded, Lyla huffed a soft breath through her nose and the two parted, resting their foreheads against the others. June was the first to open her eyes, rubbing the swell of her wife’s side. “You are doing so amazing, babe. So incredibly amazing.”
“Thanks honey…” Lyla mumbled, keeping her eyes closed and shifting her hips side to side a bit. “It’s pretty intense right now but it doesn’t feel like…more than I can handle, if that makes sense.”
“Yeah, makes sense to me…” June smiled and pulled back to kiss her forehead, her hand still gently massaging her wife’s gravid belly. “You still good standing up? Wanna move around?”
“Uhm…” Lyla shook her hair out of her face and opened her eyes, looking thoughtful. “God. I dunno. I just feel restless right now. Like I dunno what I want…” Pulling back just a little, she grasped onto June’s elbows and bent at the waist a bit, puffing out her cheeks in a big sigh as she felt her belly’s pull on her back and pelvis as it hung between her thighs. “Mmh. I think I might just…sit for a minute.”
“Okay, you got it…we can try the labial massage again, if you want.” June smiled and took her hands, ready to help her move back to the couch.
“Ooh, I almost forgot about that! Yeah, let’s try that on the next one.” With a small smile, Lyla straightened back up and peeked over her shoulder, taking a few waddly steps back until she could sit on the very edge of the couch. Letting go of June’s hands once she was settled, she rested her hands on her knees and spread her legs apart, closing her eyes and trying to will herself to relax.
June sat on the floor almost in between her spread knees, resting one hand on her thigh and smiling up at her. “There ya go. Relaaaax…” She murmured up at her wife, her eyes soft and full of admiration.
Lyla smiled and reached outt to rest a hand on June’s face, opening one eye to peek at her as she stroked her face. “I love you…” she mumbled after a moment, and June giggled, turning her head to kiss at her palm.
“I love you too.”
As the next contraction began to pick up, Lyla closed her eyes again, inhaling and resting her hands on her knees. Right away, June scooted a little closer and rested her hand between her legs, using the pads of her fingers to rub and massage at her labia.
“Ahhh…ohhh, babe….” Lyla moaned, a small smile flickering across her face. June giggled softly, turning her head and placing small kisses on Lyla’s inner thigh.
“Just relax…relax relax. I’m right here. Enjoy it…”
“That feels so good…oh my god…” Lyla inhaled deeply, then blew it out slowly through pursed lips, her head tilting over to rest on her shoulder. The contraction was intense, and she could feel the baby’s head deep inside her pressing against her cervix, but the touch of June’s fingers was almost like a release of tension she didn’t even know she had been holding.
With a soft grunt, she shifted her hands to rest on the small of her back, straightening up and rolling her hips forward as much as she could. As she moved, June followed her cues, snuggling a little closer and focusing her attention on Lyla’s opening. She felt a bit of liquid drip onto her fingers as she rubbed and massaged, and she took a moment to peek at her fingers.
“Clear liquid, babe…you’re doing just fine…”
“Ahhh. Hah. Don’t stop.” Lyla grunted softly, and June giggled as she very quickly returned her hand between her legs.
“I won’t, I’m right here…just checking…”
“Ahh. Ahhhh.” Breathed Lyla, her brow furrowing a bit. She kneaded at her own lower back, trying to focus on relaxing her shoulders and letting her jaw hang open loosely, as Sara had taught her. “Hahhh…”
June carefully let her fingers wander up to her clit, pressing very lightly at first and looking up at her face to gauge her reaction. A shiver ran up Lyla’s spine, and she let out a slightly louder moan, her face turning a bright shade of red.
“Ahh! Oh god, Juney…”
“It’s okay…it’s okay. Does that help with the pressure?”
At her almost frantic nod, June began rubbing slow circles on her clit, and Lyla almost melted into a deep sigh, her hands sliding back down to grip at her knees. “Ahhh. Uhhhhh….hahhhhhh.”
She felt so…safe. So ready. Open, and loved, and secure in what her body and her baby wanted and needed. The restlessness was only an ache for the baby to settle in the right position. The intensity of the contractions were her body easing the baby down, and her sounds only felt like a response to the intensity and a release of the pressure. Through the haze of the contractions and the tiredness of her body, she was ready.
–
After another couple of contractions, worked through by both mothers with clit stimulation and a few deep kisses in between the surges, Lyla felt another very sudden urge come over her entire body. Breaking the kiss she had been holding with her wife, she planted her hands on her knees and pushed herself to her feet, groaning deeply as she let her belly hang between her thighs. Bending her knees, she opened her eyes and looked at June, a very small smile on her face.
“Nnngh. Baby’s coming.”
“Yeah?” June smiled and cupped her face with one hand, looking up at her. “Where do you want me? You gonna push?”
Lyla nodded, inhaling as she felt the impending contraction begin to take hold. “Mmh. I gotta push. I gotta…” Unable to articulate that she still wanted June’s touch, she scrunched her eyes shut, gritting her teeth as she sank lower and gave her first push. “Nnnngh!”
Scooting around her quickly, June scrambled onto the couch and rested her hands on the small of her wife’s back, peeking between her legs. After a moment of looking, she tucked her hand between, giving her labia and opening a soft pressure with her fingers. “You got it, you got it, you got it. Push, mama.” She coached softly, watching in almost awe as her wife pushed.
“...Ghaah!” Lyla grunted in release as she let go of her push, straightening her legs a little bit. As she moved,a bit more fluid dripped out between June’s fingers and onto the floor, and Lyla couldn’t help but giggle a little. “God that feels so weird…Hn-” She grunted softly as she sank into another push, bending her knees and lowering herself down.
“I bet so…” June murmured in almost awe, carefully massaging and rubbing at her wife’s labia as she worked. She could feel the downward pressure of her push, and, just as she had been when the twins were born, she was amazed at the power and absolute beauty Layla was showing.
“Hahh!” Lyla yelled finally, and straightened up a little bit, panting deep breaths with her chest heaving. “God, I’m gonna wake up the twins…”
“It’s okay, they’re fine.” June quickly reassured her, glancing over her shoulder. Their babies were still sound asleep, though their son had stirred just a little bit at Lyla’s yell. “If they wake up, they can play on their own until their sibling gets here.”
“Okay…okay.” Lyla panted, nodding her head and taking a deep inhale, blowing it out with puffed cheeks. She slid her hands up and gripped onto her thighs a bit, taking a few more deep breaths before sinking slowly into another push. “Hnnn-…!”
June leaned down to peek between her legs again, then straightened up and rested her other hand on the small of her back, rubbing in big circles as she massaged at her labia. “That’s it. Puuuuush…” She murmured, watching carefully.
Lyla let go of the push when the contraction ended, and she slowly straightened up to a standing position, almost fitfully rubbing her hands up and down her belly. “Hahh. Ahhh. Hahhhhh…” She groaned softly, closing her eyes and rocking her hips side to side. “God. This baby wants out. This baby wants out, Juney…”
“I know, and we’re gonna meet em soon.” June sat up on her knees and rested her hands on her wife’s hips, rocking with her and leaning in to kiss at the back of her neck. Her skin was radiating heat, and she could sense how restless and uncomfortable she was. “Do you wanna lay down?”
“No! No, god no. I either need to…stay standing or do like…hands and knees or something.” Lyla shook her head firmly and slid her hands down to press and cradle the bottom of her belly, still rocking side to side.
“So let’s try it. C’mere.” Planting one more kiss on the back of Lyla’s neck, June climbed off of the couch and grabbed up the soft blanket Lyla had been using earlier, spreading it on the floor. She also grabbed the giant teddy and flopped him on one side of the blanket. “There. Kneel down here, and use Mr. Teddy to lean on.”
Lyla opened her eyes and watched as June did all this, and a small smile spread across her face. “...You don’t think that’s too close to the twins?”
“Nah, they’re out like lights. I bet being on the floor will help ground you, too.” June smiled and held out her hands, and Lyla took them, carefully using her as balance to kneel down on the blanket. Snuggling the teddy bear close, she bent over and rested her upper body against it, folding her arms under her head, and closed her eyes. “Hnnnn…yeah, that feels good…”
She resettled her hips and parted her knees, enjoying the stretch on her back and the support of the floor gently touching her swollen belly. The softness of the blanket and of the teddy bear was more comforting than she expected, and she felt herself relaxing as she snuggled into position.
June quickly joined her on the blanket, leaning on one hand and rubbing her lower back with her other hand. “There ya go…comfy?”
“Mhm…” Lyla murmured, wiggling one hand out and resting it on June’s thigh. Closing her eyes, she took a few deep breaths, heaving a deep sigh as she snuggled into the soft blanket.
When her next contraction began not too long after, she gave June’s thigh a pat and returned her arm to under her head, moaning softly and rolling her hips forward with an arch of her back. “Ohhhh…hohhh. Juney…”
“Mhm…” June murmured, very quickly sliding her hand between her legs to cup her opening. “Nice and easy, baby.”
“I’m just gonna…let my body push…slow…” Lyla murmured, not feeling the intense urge to bear down like she had the past few contractions. Simply letting the contraction wash over her and concentrating on feeling the baby moving, she took a deep breath in and pursed her lips to let it out as slowly as possible, rocking back on her heels a bit.
June watched in awe as her wife’s body worked, feeling her opening bulge and change under her fingertips. She carefully massaged and rubbed at her labia, then switched her attention to her clit, snuggling close and pressing a kiss to her bare hip.
“Hahh. Ohhhh, June…” Lyla moaned, straightening out her back and rolling her hips a little bit. This was it. She felt so good, surrounded by softness and love with ecstacy rolling through her body. One hand slowly slipped from under her head to her chest, freeing one of her swollen breasts from her shirt and kneading gently at it.
June smiled, watching her wife. Her cheeks burned red with her own arousal, but she dared not think about it. It was just…beautiful, and almost stunning, the amount of power and sensuality coming from Lyla as she surrendered herself to labor.
Focusing on controlling her breathing, Lyla let her body push for her, continuing the nipple stimulation as she felt the baby getting closer. When the contraction finally finished, she sighed and rocked forward into the teddy bear, rolling her hips against June’s hand. “Hnn…don’t stop.” She grumbled into the soft fur, and June laughed, pressing a few kisses into her hip.
“I won’t…god, you’re beautiful.” She mumbled against her skin, and Lyla happily moaned a soft reply, rocking her hips against June’s fingers. June nuzzled her hot skin and rolled quick circles around her clit, listening as Lyla’s breathing sped up a bit, caught in her throat.
“Easy…” She mumbled after a bit, moving her other hand to press and rub at the swell of Lyla’s belly, and Lyla groaned gently in response, moving her hand to rest on top of June’s. After a moment, she inhaled deeply and moved June’s hand to her breast, and June smiled, rolling her thumb around her nipple before resuming stimulation. Lyla moaned in happiness and straightened her back, tucking both hands under her head again and taking a few big, deep breaths.
Her next contraction rolled through her before she even knew it, her mind too fuzzy with her wife’s touches to register when it had begun. All she knew was the pressure had begun again, and she needed to push.
Taking a deep, deep inhale in, she tightened her arms around the teddy bear and pushed, rocking back slowly onto her heels. Feeling her motion, June opened her eyes and lifted her head to watch, then smiled, not letting up on her massages. “That’s it…that’s it, mama. Easy.”
“Fuah! Hahh. Hn-” Lyla grunted on the release of her push, then immediately inhaled and bore down again, her jaw dropping with her effort and the feeling of the baby slipping lower. She pushed steadily until-
“Ahn. Hah. Oh god…Juney…Juney…!” Lyla cried out after a moment, her hips twitching, but June had already moved her hand.
“Yep, yep, something’s coming out…I think it’s a bit of your sac, baby. You’re okay.” June carefully rubbed at her labia, peering close at the little bit of amniotic sac bulging out of her opening.
“Hahh. Ahhh. Can I push? Can I keep pushing?!” Lyla panted loudly, and June nodded, moving the had that had been on her breast to rest on her lower back.
“Yes, honey, baby’s almost here. Push when you need to.”
Lyla didn’t even wait. At the first yes, she inhaled deeply and gave a hard grunt, and the sac burst with a small gush of fluid. She jerked forward, then releaxed, laughing breathlessly. “Ahh! Oh my god…oh wow.”
“You’re doing great, baby. Everything’s fine.”
“Okay…okay.” Lyla nodded and licked her lips, centering herself, then gripped hard onto the teddy and rocked back on her heels as she sank into another push. Her belly pressed against the soft blanket beneath her, she felt the baby surge forward, and cried out as her lips parted and revealed a bit of the baby’s head for the first time.
“Hey, I see ‘em! You’re doing it, honey!” June cried out happily, and Lyla broke into a huge smile, squealing in happiness.
During her last labor she had been so nervous, so worried about what might happen, about how she might look, about how she would sound bringing her babies into the world. Now, this time, surrounded by nothing but softness and love, she was trusting her body and her labor to bring her baby into the world. She felt in control, and more than ready.
For the rest of the contraction, she tried to let herself rest, letting out gentle moaning sounds and letting the surge do the work for her. June watched carefully as the baby’s head slipped forward, then slowly back as the contraction ebbed.
The wives stayed quiet in the small rest between contractions, June carefully massaging Lyla’s labia and leaning to kiss gently at her shoulder.
When the next contraction picked up, Lyla took a deep inhale and rocked slowly back against her heels as she pushed, moaning deep in the back of her throat. June watched, a smile spreading across her face as more of the baby’s head became revealed.
“Hnnnn-...Nnngh. Nnn. Nnngh. Mmmph-” Lyla grunted a few soft pushes, then gasped as she felt the burn and stretch of a full crown. “Ahhh!” She cried out, and June nodded, scooting to sit fully behind her.
“You’re crowning, babe, that’s it! Oh my god.” June smiled, blinking back tears as she cradled either side of their baby’s head. “Just ease em out now, okay, nice and easy.”
Lyla tried to catch her breath, willing her shoulders down and her hips to relax. Taking a big deep breath in, she groaned out a soft push, which melted into a quick yell as the baby’s head moved forward, then suddenly popped fully out with a gush of fluid and a jerk of her hips. “Ahh!”
“Whoa! Okay! It’s okay, I’ve got em. Oh my god, Lyla, they’re in the caul. They’re still wearing the sac…!” June gasped out, cradling the baby’s head in her hands. She started to pull it off, but stopped as she felt Lyla pushing again, and the baby wiggle a bit in her palms. “Easy, Lyla, easy…” she cautioned, and Lyla grunted fiercely in response.
“Nnngh! I want them out!”
“They’re coming, but don’t overdo it, okay? Nice and easy. Do some of those little ones.”
Nodding, Lyla turned and buried her head into the soft fur of the teddy bear, scrunching her eyes shut and grumbling as she pushed. Every fiber of her being wanted this baby out, knew it was almost over and she had almost done it.
“Nngh. Hnn. Mmn. Nnnnnngh!” She groaned loudly, one hand darting down to press between her legs and feel the baby’s shoulders sliding forward for herself.
“Ahhh. Hahhh. Ahhh. Hgn-” Lyla panted, her chest heaving, before taking another deep breath and leaning into a silent push. Her fingers pressed gently on her clitoral hood, both giving herself stimulation and a bit of counterpressure to bring the baby forward.
Slowly, the baby inched forward…and then, with a jerk of her hips, Lyla gave one loud grunt and the rest of the baby’s body turned and slid into her waiting mother’s hands, with a small trickle of fluid and the caul wrapped around her body..
June grinned widely, cradling the new baby in her lap as she carefully pulled the sac off of the baby’s face and rubbed their tiny chest. “Lyla…honey, you did it. They’re here and they’re perfect…oh my god!”
Lyla relaxed as she heard June’s words, then smiled tiredly as the baby began to cry. Sighing deeply, she slumped against the teddy bear, her fingers still pressing lightly against her labia and feeling the cord still connected to her.
“We did it.”
