How the Alpha Avengers react to their pups being born
(If you have other scenario requests please let me know)
Steve Rodgers~
He outright refused to go on any missions two weeks before your due date. There was no way he would take the chance to miss the birth of his first pup for anything. Especially when you needed him the most
The moment your water broke, Steve, even though he had been preparing for weeks, was flustered. He was internally panicking as he helped you into the car, grabbed your to-go bag, overnight bag and made sure the car seat and baby carrier was secured before driving to the Avengers compound
When you got to the compound, Bruce and Dr. Cho both immediately took you to the medical wing and helped you get ready as they prepared for your baby
Bruce had helped you with most of the pregnancy and had done each of your ultrasounds. Steve felt a lot more comfortable with having people that he knew for awhile be the ones to handle and help you and your pup
Once you went into labor, Steve let you squeeze both of his hands, (which he swears you almost broke but he never complained about) while you pushed. During the entire delivery process, Steve kept purring and gently nuzzling your forehead with his cheek, doing his utmost to comfort you through the pain
The moment your pup was born, with the first cry from your pup, Steve was already misty eyed. After helping clean you up, wiping the sweat from your face and moving you to a bed to rest, Bruce let Steve cut the cord and swaddled your pup before handing you your newborn
Steve was immediately in love with your pup. The moment he held his son in his arms for the first time, he immediately cooed to the little baby. Steve climbed into the bed with you and handed your son to you to feed
Steve smiled down at you with an arm wrapped around your shoulder as your newborn son suckled. “(Y/n), thank you so much for giving me a pup. You did so well, I promise, I’m going to protect and take care of both of you. I love you, rest well.” Steve swore as he kissed your forehead
While you rested after giving birth, Steve kept an eye on your new pup, keeping him warm and making sure his head was supported. During your entire stay after giving birth, Steve helped you
After Bruce and Cho cleared you medically and made sure you weren’t suffering from PPD, they sent you and Steve home. The entire first few weeks, Steve had you stay in the nest with the pup (who had his own little nest next to your guys’s) while he brought you food and water while you recover, only letting you get up to use the bathroom
Every night, Steve is snuggling with his son and purring/cooing to him so his son recognizes his daddy’s voice. Whenever your son makes a noise in response, Steve’s face just lights up in joy
Bucky Barnes~
The entire pregnancy had Bucky on edge slightly, with the winter soldier constantly trying to keep an eye out for any possible threats, but the last few weeks had Bucky nearly feral with you actively having to end up scolding him for causing you stress with his constant need to recheck everything
You had to call Steve to have him talk to Bucky so Bucky would finally relax. Bucky was really stressed and the soldier just wanted to protect their mate and unborn pup
When your water broke, you immediately called Steve and let him know so that he could be there to help Bucky in case the soldier decided to make an appearance due to stress
Unlike with Steve, Bucky had brought you to Wakanda, the soldier and Bucky both agreed that it would be the best place for you to give birth considering Wakanda’s technological advancement
Steve and Ta’Challa stayed by Bucky’s side but not too close to you. As you were going into labor, they stayed on the sidelines as support for Bucky, that way he felt you were protected by Alphas he trusted and to stop him from potentially attacking the doctors if things started to go south or there were complications with the delivery
Bucky only let you squeeze his flesh hand since he didn’t want you to hurt your hand squeezing his metal one
The birth, with the help from the doctors, was relatively easy. The delivery was quick, having lasted a few hours total. And by the time you were done, you were the proud parents of a little baby girl
After getting you cleaned up and making sure your pup was healthy, the doctors handed you your swaddled pup. Bucky had a few tears escape but he and the soldier were both in awe of his mate and pup. You offered for Bucky to hold her but he was hesitant at first, afraid he might hurt her but with gentle coaxing and reassurance, he gently held his little pup
The moment he held her, he fell hopelessly in love. Especially when she gripped his finger in her tiny little hand. When she got hungry, he finally handed her back to you so you could feed her
He watched happily as you tiredly nuzzled your pup while she fed. He ended up snuggling behind you, letting you rest up against him, using him both as a backrest and pillow
When you both were ready to leave and return home, Steve helped by carrying everything to the jet while Bucky helped you into the jet
Once you both returned home, Steve made sure you both had everything you needed and offered to go last minute shopping if needed but it wasn’t necessary. Bucky carried you to your shared nest, and after laying you in it with your pup, began building a little nest for your pup right inside of the nest
Bucky made sure to bring you everything you needed and then some. He was constantly hovering and stressing himself out to the point where you literally had to grab him and pull him to the floor to rest
Once he finally relaxed, he smiled and cooed at his little baby girl, whenever she’d cry, he’d sing Russian lullabies to her to calm her down. He loves watching your pup feed and suckle, (he’s not jealous at all) and he’s always willing to get up and change her no matter the time of day or night
He absolutely loves the both of you and is constantly thanking you for giving him a pup
Thor Odinson~
This giant golden retriever of a god might be 1500 years old but he’s still pretty childish in certain respects. He made sure that everything was set up in the last month of your pregnancy in case you pup was early
Despite Thor’s insistence on you giving birth in Asgard, you were adamant that you would give birth on your home planet (earth) and that Bruce and Cho knew what they were doing
Despite his seeming reluctance, Loki did help with giving Thor real advice on what to and what not to do. If it weren’t for Loki, many things would have been disastrous, such as the construction of the crib and the other baby necessities. Loki had to explain multiple times why specific size differences were necessary such as with clothes and diapers when he and Thor went shopping, much to Loki’s dismay
When your water broke, Thor immediately panicked but you calmed him and reminded him that you both live within the Avengers compound and that Bruce and Cho are literally just a few rooms away
Loki was a godsend during the delivery. He made sure that Thor was aware of the things that happened during labor. (He made sure Thor knew better than to make any comment about you defecating while giving birth since it’s inevitable and wound only embarrass you at such a vulnerable moment)
Thor remained by your side, holding your hands and constantly praising you and cheering you on as you pushed and cried at the pain
The moment your son came into the world, Thor was literally bouncing on the balls of his feet with excitement. After helping clean you up and carrying you to a new bed while Bruce checked on your pup’s health, Thor smiled when he was handed you pup
He immediately smiled at his son, cooing and giggling at his son as you watched Thor smile at your newborn pup. Thor showed your son to Loki, absolutely beaming with pride, while Loki rolled his eyes but sincerely congratulated Thor and you on becoming parents
After Bruce and Cho deemed you ready, you and Thor returned to your little home inside the compound. Thor made sure that you had everything you needed nearby and brought you whatever you needed, making sure to help you with getting around since your son was rather big leaving you extremely exhausted and sore
Thor would constantly retell stories to your son as he feel asleep, with you snuggling up to him as well. Since he didn’t need as much sleep, Thor was content to simply watch his mate and pup sleep soundly, safe under his watchful eye
Whenever your son made even the slightest whimper, Thor was immediately on it, making sure that whatever was causing your pup to start crying was taken care of before he woke you up
It took a few more months to be ready to travel and you were adamant about waiting 6 months until you brought your pup to Asgard, but once you did, Thor immediately brought you both to the healers to get both of you checked, much for his own relief and reassurance that both of you were healthy
After ensuring that his mate and pup were completely healthy, he happily and proudly introduced your pup to his parents and friends. While you were fine with Frigga and Loki, you were hesitant about letting Odin get near your son, nonetheless even hold him. It took some convincing on Thor’s part but finally relented and allowed Odin to hold your son, but you drew the line when Fandral asked to hold your son, you actually growled at him and snatched up your pup as you hissed at Fandral. (Loki was extremely amused)
Loki Laufeyson~
After learning of your pregnancy, he was very happy, worried, scared and excited all at the same time. He spent lots of time researching and reading up on parenting techniques and tips for new parents. He insisted that you stay on Asgard and give birth there instead of earth since he wasn’t convinced Midgard had the better health care. You agreed after he promised that Asgardian medicine would lessen the pain more than an epidural
By the last few weeks, Loki was making sure that everything was prepared and ready for the arrival of your pup. Despite his calm demeanor and appearance, you knew Loki was nervous about your pup being born. He was worried he wouldn’t be a good father considering his relationship with both of his own
When your water broke, Loki immediately called for the healers who quickly arrived and helped get you ready. Once you were ready, they coached you through the birth. After a few hours, your son was born. You and Loki were excited only to be stumped when your second pup started to make their way into the world. After a few more hours, your daughter was born as well
After giving birth to twins, you promptly passed out, much to Loki’s surprise, but after being reassured that you were fine and just tired by the healers after they looked you over, Loki relaxed. When he held both your pups for the first time, he cried, and not just a few tears, he actually cried. He was so happy, he never thought that he would have something so precious
When you woke up, you saw Loki resting with both your pups snuggled up on their father’s bare chest. Loki had read that skin contact was beneficial and helped with bonding so while his pups slept, he let them get as much skin contact as possible
After seeing you were awake, Loki smiled at you and carefully walked over, making sure not to disturb his precious pups’s sleep. When they woke up, they were immediately hungry and he chuckled at seeing them go to town when they fed. He wanted to make an innuendo but didn’t want to risk ruining the precious moment
During the next few weeks, Loki made sure that you got all the rest you needed and made sure to divide his attention equally between the three of you. Of course, Frigga helped out whenever you needed it, since the birth took a lot out of you, as well as you suffering from mild PPD, Frigga made sure that Loki was able to give you all the attention you needed
When you felt terrible and guilty for not being able to immediately get attached to your pups, you cried, which broke Loki’s heart. He constantly reassured you and told you how much he loves you and how natural your feelings were, he even went out of his way to go to Midgard and bring back and expert therapist on PPD to help you
After the PPD went away and things were steady, Loki finally relaxed. He had helped you find a nanny/caretaker to help look after your twin pups, for when the two of you were unable to or were asleep. Loki made sure that the pups’s care wouldn’t cause you any stress that could cause you to relapse on your PPD
Bruce Banner/Hulk~
A bunch of mixed feelings this guy. While Bruce was happy and nervous, Hulk was excited. You were worried about giving birth to a giant green baby, possibly being torn apart in the process, but Bruce reassured you that that was not possible
Bruce was constantly checking on you and the baby, making sure you both were physically healthy and that you were mentally healthy as well. Hulk let you snuggle up to him whenever you were cold or tired
As the due date grew closer, Hulk became even more excited to meet his pup, Bruce had to constantly remind Hulk not to get too excited and risk ‘hulking out’
When your water broke, Bruce was calm whilst Hulk was excited. Bruce had made sure that Cho was on standby in case there were complications, and there were. Hulk, Bruce and you had originally planned for Hulk to come out and you would rest against him while you squeezed his fingers while delivering the pup. But not only was the pup a breach baby, the umbilical cord was wrapped around the pup’s neck. Bruce and Cho both agreed it would be much safer and less traumatic for you to have a C-section, to which you agreed. Whilst you were under, Bruce stayed outside the room, making sure that Hulk stayed calm since he wasn’t confident that Hulk could keep his cool upon seeing Cho cut into you
Hulk was incredibly stressed and Bruce was pacing, doing everything he could to keep Hulk from coming out and forcing his way into the operating room. He had to convince Hulk that running in there would actually do more harm than good
The moment they heard the cry of your pup, Hulk was already fighting to come out but Bruce contained him. It took a few moments, but Cho walked out and quickly passed your newborn pup off to Bruce to perform a checkup while she stitched you up. Bruce and Hulk immediately put there differences aside as Bruce checked your daughter over. After knowing that your daughter was perfectly healthy and fine, Bruce relaxed.
When Cho came out and told Bruce that the surgery went well and that you would recover, both he and Hulk relaxed completely. He walked into your room and sat in a chair next to you
When you woke up, Bruce greeted you and handed you your pup. You nuzzled her and asked if Hulk had held her or wanted to. When Hulk came out, he admitted that he was afraid he would scare her or hurt her. You smiled and gently put your pup in Hulks hands, making sure he held her properly, only for his daughter to smiled up at him and coo
Hulk smiled at his daughter, you got out of bed which worried Hulk, only to crawl into his lap and snuggle up to his giant warm frame. Hulk laid back as you and your pup snuggled into his warmth. Bruce wasn’t upset at all, for the first time, he was actually happy to have Hulk, since his massive warm body was able to keep both you and your pup warm
