NOT ONLY DID ROSALIE MAE DICAPRIO TURN THREE WEEKS AND THREE days postpartum, but she also turned twenty-seven years old today. after giving birth, most people would think it's a walk in the park. needless to say, rosalie was not prepared for what her body and mind would go through in the minutes, hours, days, and weeks after her daughter arrived. truth be told, rosalie didn't feel like herself, she just felt gross, exhausted, and felt like she got hit by a truck

after giving birth, three days later she was able to go home. she knew that her body wouldn't snap back like it was before, but she couldn't help but stare at herself in the mirror and see a tired mom with bags under her eyes, no makeup, and clothes with spit on them. she felt like her body was destroyed after having a her daughter. it was really hard for her to even feel beautiful and living in a world where women are expected to always look their best did not help at all. the minute she got home, with jensen's help her body was now in a waist trainer. her doctor told her it was fine, only to stop using it if she was in pain. seeing at how desperate she was to have her stomach go back to the way it was her mother would constantly tell her "rosalie, take a breather. you just gave birth, you just had a baby" she also advice her to not use the waist trainer at night, to let her body rest at night. then in the morning she could put it back on and to not take it off until the night

esme dicaprio, rosalie's mother has actually been coming over to help out the newly parents and to make sure rosalie has been following the forty days quarantine rules. according to esme, the forty day quarantine is the forty days she is supposed to be taking care of herself after having her baby. the best way esme explained it to rosalie was that after giving birth you have forty pores open and every single day, one is closing. at first rosalie thought esme was crazy, but that all changed when esme told her all these crazy stories that happened to her cousin, aunts, or her mom's friends. rosalie, not wanting to risk anything, chose to listen to her mother. all mother know best right? she thought to herself

so for the forty days, rosalie is supposed to cover herself from head to toe. so leaving the hospital, esme made sure to cover rosalie's ears, feet, chest, literally everywhere so no air would enter her pores, because it could cause swelling, facial stroke or facial paralysis. esme also told rosalie to not leave her house unless it was for doctor appointments, if she had to leave she would have to cover herself from head to toe. she also could not get near the fridge nor the stove, seeing as she was breastfeeding, her milk could dry up. at that point, rosalie was arguing with her mom on how that was a myth, but esme argued that it was pure facts

so for the first few days, esme and donna would come over to cook for the newly parents. rosalie was also supposed to watch what she ate. she was also told to not sweep nor mop, it was best for her not to bend heavily, stand up to heavily, to not do any force. most important to let her body rest, seeing as she gave birth to a whole human. so, here she was twenty-four days postpartum, and laying in bed, just waiting for her daughter to wake up at her usual time...seven-thirty in the morning

rosalie nuzzled back under the covers, she twisted over to find jensen still sleeping. he was on his stomach, one arm tucked under his pillow, the other lying limp over her side. a smile curves on her lips as she leans over and places a kiss on his bare shoulder. throughout this whole process, jensen has been the biggest help, which rosalie was absolutely grateful. the blue eyed brunette didn't know this, but jensen had called esme and his mother, asking for advice: wanting to help his girlfriend in any way that he can

once destiny, had woken up, rosalie walked over to carry her in her arms before leaving into the living room, not wanting to wake up jensen. she breastfeed her until she was full. afterwards she burped her, she placed her back in her crib, and luckily she fell asleep. which meant that she could fall asleep again

later on in the day, rosalie woke up around nine in the morning. only to be awoken up by the smell of a freshly cooked breakfast. as she forced herself out of bed and did her usual morning routine. she walked over to destiny's crib, only to find it empty. with a sigh, she walks out of her room and into the living room. a smile curved on her lips as she see's jensen carrying their daughter in his hands, squishing her cheeks with a huge grin on his face. as her eyes land on the kitchen island, she see's a bouquet of roses with a huge star shaped balloon tied around the vase that read 'happy birthday'

"good morning" she finally spoke up as she walks over to the two. she leaned her head on his shoulder as her arm went up to squeeze her daughter's little hand

"morning, sweetheart" jensen smiled "happy birthday" a smile took over her face as she turns her head to look at him. he leaned down to her height to place a enchanting kiss on her lips

"thank you" she beams as they pull away "sorry i slept in" she says, motioning to their daughter

"don't be sorry, i'm happy you did" he assured her. a part of him felt guilty that she had to get up almost every hour to feed their little girl. so when he heard her start to fuss, he immediately took over and carried her out the room, hoping his girlfriend could just get a couple more hours in of sleep

"i've just been so tired lately, and not sleeping doesn't help. so i guess it finally caught up to me" she said as jensen bent down to place the swaddled baby in her arms. a smile tugs on her lips at the sight of her baby, jensen placed a kiss on her temple before walking into the kitchen

"which is why, i cook you breakfast. come on, birthday girl"

a small giggle left meadow's lips as she was leaning against the couch, watching as destiny slept. rosalie's heart couldn't help but grow twice as big. meadow has been a big part of her life for the past two years, and watching her little niece be in love with her own daughter was a gift heaven sent

meadow glanced over at her aunt with a huge smile as she pointed at destiny "yeah, that's your cousin" rosalie grins as she leans over to meadow and pokes her stomach

a giggle leaves the two year olds lips "she's literally been bugging to come over. keeps repeating the word baby" alec speaks as he's seated on the other side of the couch

"dada, baby" meadow gushes in joy as she looks at her father as she continues to point at her first ever cousin

a smile curved on alec's lips as he sends his daughter a nod "so, seeing as you can't leave the house. what do you wanna do to kill time?" he asks his sister

rosalie glanced from alec to her girls, she shook her head "nothing" she leans forward to bring meadow in her arms "i just want to spend time with my girls" she smiles as she places a hand on meadow's cheek and brings her cheek to her lips, placing tiny kisses all over her face

"i luh you, tia" meadow said after her giggle fit

rosalie couldn't wait for her daughter to be just as old as meadow, to hear those words from her daughter would be a dream come true "i love you too, angel baby. forever and ever"
