The New Arrivals

This is part two of Mr Dot Arrives at K. C. Bunnyborough

 

The next day at school Mrs Know tells the class that she is pregnant and when her baby rabbit is born Mr Know will be the relieving teacher for a month and then she will resume her teaching duties.

 

That night after tea Mrs Know tells Mr Know that she feels tired and is going to bed early.  Mr Know scratches his ears in wonder as he too is tired and his thoughts have been on the news they received yesterday about the expectant baby rabbit which is due in a few weeks’ time.

 

During the night Clematis tosses and turns in bed and Mr Know is getting worried.  He hasn’t been an expectant father before and just doesn’t know what to expect.  Clematis lets out a dull groan and says I think the baby is coming. 
Mr Know jumps out of bed and says he will take her to K. C. Bunnyborough Medical Centre. He asks if she will be able to get on the bike to be taken. She groans again and says no. Mr Know says he will go and borrow Grandfather Cottontail’s car to take her.

 

Mr Know hops to Grandfather Cottontail’s caravan and asks him if he can borrow his car to take Clematis to K. C. Bunnyborough Medical Centre. Grandfather Cottontail looks at the state he is in and says he will drive them to K. C. Bunnyborough Medical Centre. Grandmother Cottontail offers to come also to be a support to Clematis but Grandfather Cottontail tells her to say home and that she will be a help when Clematis comes home.

 

When Mr Know and Grandfather Cottontail arrive at Mr Knows home they carry Clematis to the car and put her on the back seat of the car to take her to K. C. Bunnyborough Medical Centre. 

Nurse Emily is waiting for them when they arrive because word has reached her that they are coming. She is concerned at Clematis's state because it is too early for the baby to be born yet!

They carry her inside and Nurse Emily tells Mr Know and Grandfather Cottontail to wait in the ward, (there are no rabbits in the ward at the moment), while she examines Clematis in the consulting room.Mr Know loves Clematis very much  and is anxious  as he  paces up and down the ward waiting for Nurse Emily to come out of the consultant room.

 

Fifty-five minutes later Grandfather Cottontail is trying to get him to sit down when Nurse Emily comes in and tells Mr Know he is now the father to twins, a baby male and female. 

The baby rabbits are premature and have to have oxygen so they will be in an incubator to help them breathe and  free from germs and keep them warm because they haven’t got any fur.

Mr Know goes over and gives Mrs Know a big cuddle and kiss now that he is allowed in the room after the birth of their twins. 

 

 They are in awe of their dear little rabbit twins that have just been born. 

 

Nurse Emily has invited Mr Know to stay the night to be supportive to Mrs Know and they can be close to their twins. 

Grandfather Cottontail congratulates Mr and Mrs Know on the birth of their twins and says farewell  before he leaves to drive home to his caravan.
