Baby fever is killing me, and I keep going back to read over any 141 fics where they have kids ;_;

Thank you if you decide to do this!! <3

When Gaz holds his newborn for the first time, it’s with skin-to-skin contact at the hospital. He sits beside your bed in a chair, his upper half bare. The care team have already dried the newborn off, put a little knit cap on its head. Placed belly down but upright, Kyle supports his child his arms as a nurse drapes a warm blanket over father and child. Only the newborn's head is above the blanket. You watch quietly, eventually drifting off. Kyle refuses to move even as his arms cramp.

When Price holds his newborn for the first time, the man is a wreck on the inside. Outwardly, he stays strong and stoic, knowing that you need support and care after bringing such a precious thing into the world. Inwardly, he’s a storm of emotion. Price, joy, fear, and anxiety. This moment is a happy one, but now that the baby is here, he has a greater responsibility. John hopes that he won’t mess this up—that he will be the best partner and father for the years ahead.

When Soap holds his newborn in his arms for the first time, it’s all pride. The man is beaming, smiling so wide his face hurts. This might be his fourth, but Soap isn’t counting. He’s showing this newborn off to everyone in the hospital, even the doctors and nurses who were in the room for it. “Look at this wee thing,” he says to each new face.

When Ghost holds his newborn in his arms for the first time, he doesn’t expect the tears. The life he’s led, his childhood drenched with parental absences and abuse, created a shadow over his future. Ghost believed fatherhood was out of reach, and not for him. But with this small bundle in his arms, fragile and precious, Ghost knows that’s not the case, that he will never be like his father. Ghost will provide his child with constant love. Something he’s never had.

John looks skeptical. "Forest school? You mean they just... let toddlers loose in the woods?" You have to explain that it's a method that encourages play, exploration, and risk-taking, while they learn about nature through the seasons.

Simon claims that the five of you can teach her better. "She needs to be around other children. Not just grown men who call playgrounds 'soft terrain'," you say.

Johnny pipes up next. "But think of it this way! By five, she'd ken how tae track, build a shelter—"

Kyle cuts him off, already rubbing his temples. "She's going to nursery school. After we do recon."

This was suppose to be a relaxing trip back to the states before you would be having your baby in 9 weeks.

A 1 week trip back to your spawn point before going back to your home with John and pending the next most likely few years there.

Kyle who tries out the milkshake his child made only to realize they made it using expired milk, hopefully they did that unintentionally..

Simon who walks to each door in the neighborhood with his daughter to help her sell girl scout cookies..he's in full attire too.

Gaz would know the basics, naturally, and would take the extra time to make sure his babies always have their hair right. he reminds them how beautiful their hair is and how important it is to take the extra time and care to keep it healthy. if you’re not used to caring for their hair type, he’s very patient in teaching you the basics and hypes you up every time you do their hair on your own.

Price would shyly stumble into a black salon and ask for tips and tutorials on how to care for his children’s hair. he’d make sure he had all the right tools, products, accessories, etc. and make sure he knows how to use them. he does a piss poor job at styling it, and you always end up having to fix it anyway, but at least he tries.

Soap goes all in. he has his babies sat in front of him, and a youtube tutorial in front of them both, and he’s putting in the work. tongue sticking out as he braids and twists and, surprisingly, it turns out better than anyone expected— except him. he was confident from the get go. now it’s your turn, bonnie; boho braids or knotless box braids? i saw a lass earlier with her hair like this—

price: "goddamn it, not again" lowkey getting very frustrated with himself because it wasn't turning out the way he wants it to be and he was ready to quit, to put a headband on and call it a day. but one look from her little face had him rewinding the video, sighing softly as he tried again. he's already run the brush through her hair gently for the umpteenth time, causing her to grumble and wanting to go play instead. but he holds her back carefully, determined to make her braids the prettiest anyone has ever seen. the hair band between his lips, brows furrowed looking to and fro from the video and then back at the hair between his hands

"just a second, honey" it's loose and he doesn't know how to tighten it but he's determined. absolutely nobody is moving an inch until he perfects that braid. his back is curved uncomfortably and he's definitely going to get neck pain from craning down to get the best access to her head but he does finally manage to get it accurate. it only took ages but he's very proud of himself :") takes a sweet little selfie with her in his arms to send to you and makes it his lockscreen. he mightve conquered many enemies but his biggest one till date was tackling his daughter's hair, all completely worth it for how happy she is

simon: "this bit.... goes underneath right? over the top, underneath the side, down back under.... piece of cake, sweetheart" simon is a dedicated man, his tongue peeking out from his lips as he tried his very hardest to memorise what he had learnt from a youtube video. his daughter sat between his thighs, his big fingers working her hair very delicately in order not to pull on any strands. he has the hair grips secured between his lips, eyes narrowed very carefully as he braids her hair trying to get all of the hair. he is a man on a mission and he will carry out the task to the best of his ability. the stares from his little girl didn't help either, was positive he felt sweat beading down his forehead and back. she really was his child with that judgemental look

"bloody hell, that took it out of me" he finally lets out a relieved sigh at his masterpiece, there might be a few strands sticking out and the braid might look a little lopsided but it's unique 🤭 he didn't even have time to grab his phone, to send you a picture only to have his daughter shake her head once, causing the braid to tumble down and his face like 👁👄👁

gaz: "keep your head straight okay, honey?" this mans should def open a hair place, he's already mastered the technique of braiding from his mum especially because his hair type is different and requires a certain amount of care. so he knows exactly how to braid, call it his secret talent ;) lowkey finds it therapeutic and will 100% decorates his girl's hair with different clips and grips, whatever her little heart desires. he loves brushing his fingers through her locks and he always manages to get the parting accurate on the first time. which saves a ton of tantrums on her end. absolutely gets matching braids with his girl, she gets to stick the cute little clips and he loves how happy she gets

"my beautiful girl" best believe he's whipping out the camera to take pictures of her hair and send it to you, marvelling at how gorgeous she looks. he's all smug when she wants to come to him for her hair but it definitely bites him back in the ass when he's half dressed needing to leave the house in five minutes to head to base. only to be tugged by his child by his wrist to have her hair braided in that specific way she loves and she's two seconds away from a meltdown

soap: "christ sake, why would they add so many pieces?" johnny definitely underestimated himself, he didn't mean to blow his own horn but now that he has, he doesn't not accept defeat easily at all. will memorise that youtube video back to front, his daughter seated in his lap both of the criss crossed as he works delicately. his face set intently, eyes slightly narrowed as he braids. he's confused by the movement but gets the hang of it after a while and then it's like second nature, he's so happy with himself.

Obviously, they'd never say the "n-word" so just ignore that part lool. But i thought this was so funny, I cant help but imagine they have some mischievous twins 😭😂

ooo okok.
