Trying to comfort a sick baby
The sweetest Little
Over the course of the next two hours Hannah and Liana were trying everything that they could possibly think of to calm you down,they'd alternated in holding you,had swayed back and forth with you,had swaddled you in a comfortable blanket,had offered you pacifiers and a bottle,had sang to you,talked to you softly,anything that they could think of they'd already tried and none of it had worked.
You were still bawling your eyes out,right now wriggling in Hannah's arms as the blonde was the one that was currently holding you and trying to shush you but to no luck.
"Estella baby....please stop crying,you're okay,Mommy's here and Mama is around too,please just calm down",Hannah tiredly said and sighed when you just started to cry even louder.
If you'd be in at least a toddler headspace right now you would at least be able to say what was wrong but you were way too little to talk right now which your Mommies weren't used to,causing everyone to be a bit stressed out which you in turn could sense and that was making you even more upset.
"Shh sh sh shh,it's okay baby",Hannah then helplessly cooed and gave your forehead a kiss,only to feel your skin being scolding hot to the touch,now it was all making sense,you were sick!!
"Ohh you're sick,that's what you've been trying to tell Mama and me huh,I'm sorry that we didn't understand baby",Hannah then soothingly mumbled and walked over into her and Liana's bedroom with you in her arms,finding the brunette just sitting on the bed and scrolling on her phone,seemingly unbothered with the fact that you were screaming at the top of your lungs as if you were being murdered.
"Uhm hello why are you just sitting on your phone,help me,I just figured out what's wrong,our baby's sick",Hannah said in an annoyed and accusatory tone of voice whilst giving her wife a sharp look.
"Oh no poor baby,by the way I was googling how to calm down a baby,I wasn't just chilling on my phone",Liana responded,the first half of her sentence directed at you in a babyish tone of voice and the second half directed at Hannah,defending herself.
"So since she's so little right now why don't I go make her a bottle and mix some medicine into it whilst you go and wash her upper body with a wash cloth and get her dressed into something shorter since she must be sweating,oh also when we were at the shopping mall with her I bought some diapers for her after you guys had disappeared to the bathrooms just incase she'd ever regress so far that she needs more protection than pull ups can give her,I've put some of them into the lower drawer of her changing table",the brunette then suggested and informed her wife,earning a surprised raised eyebrow and a grateful smile from Hannah.
"That's really smart Liana,thank you,just come up into the nursery with the bottle when it's done yeah?",the blonde then mumbled,praising her Wife,which Liana hummed in agreement to before both of them started going into different rooms to do what they needed to do.
You were again very fussy on the changing table,crying and wriggling and trying to fight her washing the sweat off of you,getting you changed into a diaper and a short T-shirt but ultimately Hannah was obviously much stronger than you,so you found yourself back in her arms,dressed like that so that you wouldn't be sweating as much anymore,after only a few minutes.
To be honest you were so little right now,and distracted by being sick,that you weren't even really taking notice of the fact that the blonde had fastened a diaper around your hips and not a new pull up.
You'd whined loudly in pain when she'd put the rash cream on you again but other than that you had not really payed much attention to what your Mommy had done.
"Shh honey,it's okay,you're okay....ohh I know you're so sick huh",Hannah cooed as she was holding you in her arms,finally getting you to start crying a little bit more quietly,you were listening to her talk.
"Yes,I know you're feeling sick and icky,Mommy knows but guess what,Mama is gonna be here with a yummy bottle for you any time now,oh yes she is,and then we'll get your tummy all warm and full",Hannah then cooed in a sing-song tone of voice,trying her best to get you to stop crying and your cries did finally start to turn into just sad sniffles by now as she was talking,causing her to get more confident as the conversation went on.
"Are you my brave little baby,are you,oh yes you are,yes you are",the blonde murmured and gave your head a kiss as she patted your butt a few times before tickling your stomach a bit,finally earning a giggle from you,causing her to playfully gasp.
"Was that a giggle,is Mommy being funny huh,is Mommy being funny?",she said again in her most babyish tone of voice whilst tickling your stomach once more,earning another giggle from you just as Liana was walking into the nursery with a bottle in her hands,causing both of your Mommies to immediately smile,they were so happy that your cries were starting to stop now.
"Ohh look there's Mama and she's got some yummy milk for you",Hannah then said and watched Liana sit down in an armchair in the corner of your room with the bottle before the blonde gently handed you over to her,only letting go of you once you were being successfully cradled in the brunette's arms.
"There we go,stay with Mama",Hannah mumbled in a higher pitched voice and watched as Liana held the bottle up to your lips.
"Look Estella,I have some yummy milk for you",Liana then murmured and gently pressed the bottle a bit harder against your lips until you finally opened your mouth enough for her to put it into your mouth so that you could drink.
"Very good Estella,isn't it yummy?",Liana then praised you as you started to drink but as soon as her sentence had ended you started to cough,milk coming back out of your mouth so the brunette immediately took the bottle out of your mouth in a panic,threw it at Hannah,who just managed to catch it in time before it could hit the ground,and put you over her shoulder immediately whilst patting your back as you kept spitting up.
Of course you immediately started to cry again as you were spitting up,you were way too little to understand that it was just a bit of spit up and that you weren't going to die,you were feeling absolutely horrible and were just wanting your Mommies to make it stop.
"Sh sh sh,shh baby it's okay,you're alright",Liana quickly soothed and shushed you,feeling your spit up running down her back and silently regretting the fact that she hadn't put a towel over her shoulder.
Once you finally stopped spitting up Liana gently handed you back to Hannah with the words:
"It's okay baby,go back to Mommy",wanting to get out of her now dirty shirt.
Hannah immediately took you back into her arms,wiped your mouth off with one of her sleeves and began to slowly sway from side to side with you whilst humming a song to get you to calm down and watched her wife sprint out of the nursery.
This worked rather quickly which was why she then took a seat in the armchair that Liana had occupied just a few minutes ago and cradled you in her arms like a newborn baby,trying to get you to drink from the bottle again as there was still most of it left although it was now starting to get a bit cold but sadly you didn't accept the bottle and just tried to turn your head away from it with a whine whenever the blonde was holding it up against your mouth.
"Oh baby come on,drink for Mommy,you must be so hungry",Hannah gently cooed,trying her best to coax you into letting her put the bottle into your mouth but you kept refusing and turnend your head away over and over again,earning a tired sigh from your Mommy.
"Come on Estella,I know that you're so hungry,please listen to Mommy",she begged but still you were keeping your mouth closed and refused to accept the bottle.
Ultimately Hannah then decided to give up on that for now,knowing that she couldn't force you to drink something even though she knew that you were hungry and just tried putting you to sleep in her arms instead,hoping that you'd be in at least a bit of an older headspace by the time that you'd wake up again and carefully put you down into your crib once she'd finally managed to successfully get you to fall asleep.
