It didn't take long for Jewelweed to realize she couldn't produce enough milk for all three babies. She couldn't even produce enough milk for the twins. Conluscious wasn't concerned, though.
"Well, this is common for dryads, right?" he asked. "Because dryads begin feeding from the sun even as infants." Jewelweed sighed as she pulled the top of her dress back up to cover her significant bust.
"Yes," she confirmed, using her secondary memories of growing up as Jewelweed. "But even Seajewel is part satyr, so she will not feed from the sun as easily. And the other two, they cannot feed from the sun at all!"
"Relax," Conluscious said sweetly. Jewelweed took a deep breath. "We will simply hire a wetnurse! Your friends Andi and Willa, they have plenty of milk."
"Yes, they do." Jewelweed looked at her beloved children sleeping in their cribs. She sighed softly. Conluscious kissed her.
"Let us go to bed. You can speak to your friends in the morning." He stroked her hair. "Perhaps we can make love?" Jewelweed chuckled.
"Nothing to produce any children for some time. But I wouldn't mind fooling around a bit together."
The next morning, Jewelweed met the other former frat boys for their weekly brunch, during which they caught each other up on their lives. She explained her situation, and asked Willa (previously Will) and Andi (previously Andy) if they could be hired as wetnurses. Andi shook her head.
"No. My mate is adopting an orphaned relative that needs nursing. He wants me to dedicate my milk supply to our new son once he gets here."
"I can help," Willa said eagerly. "As you know, I was a surrogate for Faunus. After I gave birth to those triplets for him, I refused to be their wetnurse and left. But I have too much milk to handle now. And I need some money."
"Perfect!" Jewelweed said, relieved. When brunch ended, Willa came with Jewelweed to the house, where Jewelweed explained everything to her surprised mate.
"I'm very happy that my children will nurse from a satyress," Conluscious said. Willa was a rare female satyr. She smiled at the compliment. "Let us get you settled in. Then you can meet the children."
Jewelweed went to the kitchen to begin prepping for lunch. She had four weaned stepchildren, and they were all very picky. As she cooked, she felt a bit of worry over the look Conluscious had given Willa. She shook her head. Conluscious would behave. And so would Willa. She was sure of it.
