Dream Child
by: Patricia Anne Anderson
It was a bright sunny afternoon when Claudia Chandler was sitting outside watching her girls play. She and her husband Brad had 3 children all girls and she was pregnant with her 4th child. They were both hoping that it would be a boy. But secretly Claudia wanted another girl. Her girls, Natalie 7, Anna 5 and Cynthia 2 were playing tag in the front yard when she suddenly got a pain and her water broke. Natalie being the oldest noticed what was happening and rushed to her mothers side.
"What’s wrong momma?" she asked.
"I think you had better call your father honey."
"Ok Momma."
Claudia got up from the lawn chair and headed for the house. As she did Natalie rushed inside and picked up the phone. She dialed her fathers number and got hold of him.
"Daddy I think you better come home, momma is sick or something."
"Ok sweetie, I will be home in about 15 min."
"Momma, daddy said he would be home in 15 Minutes."
"Ok Natalie, please go into my room and get the suitcase that I packed last week."
Natalie did as she was told and ran to the bedroom. Cynthia and Anna came into the house. Cynthia had to carry Anna because she didn’t move too fast at 2. They saw their mother laying on the couch and went to her. They were wondering what was going on.
"What is wrong with momma Natalie?" asked Cynthia.
"She is getting ready to have a baby." said Natalie.
"Oh is daddy coming home?"
"Yes he is hon, he will be here soon."
The two younger sisters stood there and baby Anna started to cry. As Natalie saw this she picked up her little sister.
"Momma will be just fine sweetie." She told Anna.
Cynthia was only 5 but she knew what to do. She helped her big sister with the baby and also with the suitcase for their mother. Brad and Claudia had involved the three girls in the entire pregnancy. This was so that they would not be jealous of a new baby when she brought it home.
Brad arrived shortly after that and when he came in the house he told Natalie to call their aunt Mary. Natalie called their aunt and told her what was going on and that she had to come over and baby-sit. When she got off the phone she told her dad that her aunt said she would be right over. It was about a half hour later when aunt Mary showed up. By this time Brad had his wife ready to leave. The contractions were about 5 minutes apart and he knew it wouldn’t be long. They left for the hospital leaving the girls in Mary’s care.
Claudia was in labor for almost 6 hours and it was a hard birth. They didn’t realize it but Claudia was having twins. The first twin born was a girl and she named her Patricia Anne after her great aunt. The second was a boy and sh4e named him Patrick Anthony after her father and her grandfather.
You could not tell the two babies apart. They were almost identical except for obvious differences. It was a very rough delivery and Claudia was very tired. Something was amiss and she was very pale. The doctor told Brad that she would have to stay in the hospital for an extended time. He also told him that there were complications with Patricia. She was also very weak. The chances of her surviving were very slim.
"What about Patrick?" he asked.
"Well the male child is doing just fine, he can go home in a couple of days, but I am afraid that the female will have to remain here with her mother."
Thus begins an adventure that would see many changes in the life of Patrick. He went home several days later and while his mother was in the hospital aunt Mary would take care of the children.
The three older children dolled over Patrick and he was something of a mystery to little Anna. She was right there when ever aunt Mary would change him or feed him. Even at two she noticed that there was something different about this baby. Cynthia knew right away the difference and Natalie helped diaper and bathe the new baby. One day while Natalie was helping her aunt she got an idea. She went into Anna’s room and got some of her old baby clothes and brought them to her aunt.
"Aunt Mary, lets dress Patrick like a girl, I want to see what Patricia will look like."
" I don’t think that is a good idea Natalie, besides he is s boy."
"Awwwww come aunt Mary it won’t hurt anything."
Mary relented to her niece and they dressed Patrick in a little pink outfit and put a pink ribbon in his hair. He actually looked cute and Mary had to smile. Natalie was just ecstatic as she held the baby.
"This would be so neat if we could do this all the time."
"Well I don’t think it will cause any harm." said Mary.
The other two girls came in and they stood there with wide eyes it was really different. All that day Patrick was dressed in little girl things. The three girls loved it. Now Claudia was still in the hospital and would stay there for quite some time. Little Patricia would remain with her but at home Mary and the girls, especially Natalie were having fun pretending that their new brother was really a girl.
When it was time for their mother to come home with their sister they were really anxious. Claudia came in carrying Patricia who was now 2 months old and immediately the three girls wanted to gold the baby. It was something that Claudia would not allow them to do for quite some time.
When Claudia put the two babies next to each other the girls were amazed. They looked exactly alike, you could not tell them apart when they were either dressed alike or just wearing diapers. This would be very interesting to say the least.
The two babies grew fast and dispite the fact that little Patricia was a weak child she and Patrick were growing ever closer. They did everything together. They even started to walk at almost the same time. The three older girls loved playing with them and when Natalie was watching them she would dress them alike mostly as two little girls. It was easy to do because Claudia didn’t want to cut Patrick’s long red hair.
As the years progressed little Patrick was confused. He didn’t know if he was a boy or a girl. His mother and father treated him like a boy but his sisters treated him like a girl. When the two children sere 12 something tragic happened. Their parents were killed in a automobile accident. The family was devastated but because the children all loved their aunt Mary they all talked and decided to go live with her. Mary was in her mid 40’s but was not married. She gladly accepted the children and took them in without question.
Mary thought of them as her own anyway. Now Mary knew that the girls would be all right. She only had the two little ones left to take care of because Natalie and Cynthia were already in college. Now Patricia and Patrick were real close and they did everything together. Anna was too busy doing her thing as she was in highschool.
Aunt Mary was a good mother to the children. And she loved them dearly. Something was wrong however because Patrick was always getting into fights and was becoming very unruly. It was Patricia that offered a solution to the problem.
"Aunt Mary, why don’t you treat Patrick like you would me, when were tiny the girls would dress him up like a girl all the time." "Hmmmm, that might work Patricia."
So that afternoon when Patrick got home from his ball game Aunt Mary along with Anna and Patricia’s help put a plan into action. They called Patrick into the front room and sat him down.
"Oh Patrick, tell me what is the problem, why are you always fighting and getting into trouble?"
"I don’t know aunt Mary, it seems because I am so small the bigger boys want to pick on me. They call me sissy because of my long hair, and then there are these."
Patrick opened his shirt and there on his young hairless chest were the beginnings of small pert little breasts. Aunt Mary looked in amazement and Patricia started to snicker.
"Now do you see what I mean, everyone does that."
" I am sorry Patrick," said Patricia.
Aunt Mary went to sit next to Patrick and began to talk to him in a very low voice.
"Sweetie, I have a plan but you will have to agree with it."
"And what is that?" he said with a scowl.
"Well, in view of the fact that you seem to be budding, how would
you like to be a girl?"
"What do you mean aunt Mary?"
"Well, with Patricia and Anna’s help I think we can make you look very pretty."
"I don’t know aunt Mary."
"Well, you don’t remember but when you were babies I used to dress you and Patricia in the same clothes, you are identical ad I think that is where the problem lies. I think you should have been a girl."
Patrick had to admit that he did feel much better when he and his sister were both dressed like girls and he was much more comfortable. He however didn’t know what to say.
"Aunt Mary, do you really think that I should have been a girl?" "Yes I do honey and I think you will feel better, I will set up an appointment with Doctor Lynch tomorrow and we will go talk to her."
"Doctor Lynch was their family physician and she was very honest with the children. Mary had known her for many years and she knew the children very well. It was settled, Patrick would go to see Doctor Lynch the next day. Doctor Lynch was not only an MD but a physiologist as well specializing in child Psychology. She had been there for the children when their parents died.
The next morning bright and early aunt Mary woke Patrick and told him he had to get ready. He got out of bed and went to take a quick shower but to his surprise there was already a bath drawn for him. The bubbles that were in the bath smelled like roses. He didn’t know what top think till his sister Anne came in.
"what is this?" he asked.
"Well aunt Mary told me to run you a bath and to put the bubbles in."
"Oh, ok, and then what?"
"I don’t know Patrick?" she said with a smile.
Patrick told Anne to leave so that he could take his bath. After all he was a boy and she was a girl. When she left he let the robe fall to the ground and he got into the warm water. It actually felt good and the bubbles made his nose tickle. He thought to himself, so this is why the girls like baths so much.
He was so engrossed that he didn’t notice his aunt coming in. He was just sitting there relaxing when she spoke. It startled him.
"Well, I can see you lie the bath." she said.
"Yes it is rather relaxing." he said.
"Good I am glad you like it."
She reached over and poured something into the water. It made him feel smooth and soft as it shrouded his body. When he got out of the tub all of his body hair had fallen out. He was a smooth as a new born baby. Still he was wondering what the hell was going on. His aunt came back in and he quickly covered up with a towel.
"What was that you put in the water aunt Mary?"
"It was something I picked up to take all that body hair off of you hon, do you like it?"
"I don’t know, I didn’t have much hair as it was and now I have none."
"But doesn’t it feel good."
"Yes it does."
She told him to go to his room and put on what she had laid out for him to wear. There on the bed were a pair of pink panties and a training bra along with a silk blouse and a skirt. He looked at the items and was confused.
Aunt Mary came in and told him to get dressed quickly. He looked at the items of female clothing and then back to her.
"What is this stuff aunt Mary?"
"well you are going to go see the doctor about why you like to dress
like a girl, well this will be more convincing, now get dressed."
"But I don’t know how to put this on." He said holding up the bra.
"Come here I will help you but you will have to learn how to do it yourself in the future."
He was slow in putting on the rest of the clothes but the bra did help to accentuate his small breasts or what there were of them. He put on the blouse and the skirt and the ankle socks and Mary Jane shoes. When he was done he went to the living room where his two sisters Anne and Patricia were.
They looked at him and Anne took his hand and led him to her room where she sat him down in front of her vanity table and started to work on his hair. His twin sister was there and she put a small amount of make up on him. When Anne was done with his hair he looked in the mirror. Standing next to him you couldn’t tell him or Patricia apart. He was amazed at the effect. They went back to the living room where aunt Mary was waiting.
When Patricia and Patrick walked in the room, they were dressed in identical outfits. Aunt Mary just had to stare at them. She was amazed at how much they looked alike.
"Come now children we have to go, Anne and Patricia do you want to come along?"
"No I will stay home with Anne." said Patricia.
Mary and Patrick left and headed for the car. As they got in one of her neighbors saw them and greeted them.
"Good morning Mary, good morning Patricia." she said.
"Good morning Mrs. Wilson."
She smiled as they got in the car. And Patrick was histericle and didn’t know what to do at Mrs. Wilson’s greeting.
"She called me Patricia." he said.
"Why yes she did didn’t she."
All the way to the clinic Patrick didn’t say a word. He was too shocked that his neighbor would make that kind of mistake. But then he knew he and Patricia looked exactly alike. When they got to the clinic they were sent to a little room to wait. It was about half hour and the doctor came in. She came in and when she saw Patrick all she could do was smile.
"Good morning Mary." She said with a smile.
"Good morning Beverly."
"And how are you this morning Patrick."
"I don’t know yet doctor?" he said.
"Well I can see that you are dressed like your sister, may I ask why you are dressed like that?"
"My aunt made me get dressed like this."
"And how do you feel dressed like that?"
"It is kind of strange doctor Lynch but it feels good."
"Ok Patrick lets have a look at you, please take off your clothes down to your underwear."
Patrick started to get undressed and doctor Lynch noticed the bra and panties he was wearing. The only problem was the bulge he had in the front of the panties. She also noticed that Patrick’s small pert breasts actually filled up the training bra he was wearing. She instructed him to also take that off so she could examine him better. She went over to him when he sat on the examination table and she started to feel around his breasts. It tickled and he started to laugh.
"That tickles doctor Lynch."
"I am sorry Patrick but it is necessary."
She finished her examination of his breasts and then had hum lay back and she told him to take off his panties. She did some poking and some prodding and then smiled. She left the room for a bit and then came back in with a nurse and a strange looking machine.
"Patrick, this is a fluoroscope, it will allow me to have a look inside you sort of like an X-ray but different."
The nurse moved the fluoroscope over Patrick and then stood back as doctor Lynch moved it back and forth. What she discovered was rather startling to say the least. She took aunt Mary off to the side and talked to her in a real low voice all the while looking at Patrick. The two woman were shaking their heads and smiling. Both of them came back to Patrick laying there on the table. Doctor Lynch began to explain to Patrick what she had found.
"Patrick have you ever wondered why your nipples hurt and why you have started to develop breasts?" "Well no I haven’t, why?"
"Because my dear boy you have a utarus and overies inside you, do you know what that means?"
"No I don’t."
"Well hon it means you are intersexed, you have both male and female sex organs."
"So, now what?"
"Well I could schedule you for an operation and have them removed in which case you would develop like any normal boy, or we could leave them in and you would be a unique case in that you would continue to develop breasts and have a slight build like a female."
"I don’t know what you mean doctor Lynch."
"Well, you won’t grow a beard like most men, your breasts will continue to develop and you will have the appearance of being a female, but you will have a penis and testicles like a male."
"What she means sweetie is that you will be very special, you will be both male and female." Said aunt Mary.
Now Patrick was at a loss at what to do and he looked at the two woman standing there smiling. He wanted to make the right decision as to what to do. He thought for a while and decided that it would make him allot closer to his twin sister and he liked that thought. Besides he didn’t feel much like a boy anyway. He finally spoke up and asked the doctor some questions.
"If I decide to keep them in me will I have to do anything special?"
"No all you will do is develop like any normal girl." she said.
"Well what if I want to be a girl?" he asked
"Then there is a procedure that will turn you into a female, it is an operation that we will be able to perform to give you a vagina."
"What happens if I want to be just a boy?"
"Then we will think about removing the female organs that are in you so that you will develop like any other male."
Patrick thought long and hard about this then he asked yet another question.
"What if I want to be both sexes?"
"Well that could certainly be the case Patrick, but, you see the older you get the harder it will be on you."
"But I want to wait for a while, can I do that?"
"Yes you can Patrick, but you will have to come and see me at least once a week, as you know I am also a psychologist."
"Yes I understand."
With that Patrick was told to get dressed again. The doctor told him a way that he could hide his penis and testicles and his panties would fit much better. With that she pushed his testicles up inside his body and pulled his penis back between his legs. She took some surgical tape and secured it all in place. She left just a small gap so that he could urinate but he would have to sit like a girl to do that. He did smile in spite of himself and when he put the panties back on he couldn’t help but admire the look. There was no more tell tale bulge in front.
"I will make arrangements to get you something that will help you in this Patrick." said the doctor.
"Thank you ever so much Beverly." Said Mary.
"No problem Mary, anything to help."
Patrick and Mary left the doctors office and the nurse gave them both a knowing smile as they left the office. Before leaving Mary stopped at the desk and made an appointment for her new niece. Before she did this she asked Patrick what name he would like to use as a female name.
"Gee wiz aunt Mary I don’t know?"
"Well how about Pamela, it is a pretty name and it was your grandmothers name."
"Ok I like that name aunt Mary."
Mary set up an appointment for Patrick under the name of Pamela and they both left. The trip back home wasn’t too auspicious but Mary was smiling all the way. On the way home Mary decided to stop at the mall and she brought Patrick to a place where she could get his ears pierced. He was reluctant at first but when Mary explained to him that most of the girls get pierced ears he went along. She also explained that allot of young boys also get their ears pierced now days.
The shop was a nice one and Mary let Patrick pick the ones that he wanted. He chose a pair of small diamond studs. After his ears were pierced the girl told him that he had to keep the ear rings in and clean then twice a day for the next 6 weeks. That was no problem seeing as how it was summer vacation.
The rest of the way home aunt Mary talked about nothing but how pretty Patrick looked and that he would easily adjust to being a girl. She also said that she didn’t think he would want to go back to being a boy by the end of the summer but she would let him make that decision. As a 13 year old he would make a perfect girl.
When they got home Patrick got a big surprise, Anna had invited over a couple of her friends and they couldn’t believe that the girl they saw getting out of the car was relay Patrick. When they went in the house both Anna and Patricia met them at the door. Their eyes nearly fell out of their heads when they saw Patrick.
"Welcome home Patrick, said Anna, this is my friend Jason, you remember him don’t you?" "Of course I do, hello Jason."
" I can’t believe it, Patrick is that you?"
"Yes it is Jason but please call me Pamela."
"Ok, hello Pamela, are you going to stay like that?"
"I don’t know Jason, I do feel much better this way."
All Jason could do was smile as Patrick went to sit down. He sat like any girl would sit with his legs crossed. Another of Anna’s friends was Sally and she also couldn’t believe it. She went over to Patrick and sat next to him on the sofa.
"You look so nice Patrick, I mean Pamela."
"Thank you Sally, I feel pretty good too."
"How long have you felt like this?"
"Well it has been a long time, I am not sure I want to be a girl for real yet but this will give me a chance to find out."
"Cool, then you, me, Anna and Patricia can be friends?"
"Of course we will."
Patricia went over to sit next to her twin brother and Sally nearly fell on the floor. They were identical and wearing the same outfits you couldn’t tell them apart. It was strange yet so beautiful now Patricia had the sister she always wanted. Dispite being close to Patrick she knew she would be even closer to Pamela. She had always wanted her twin to be female instead of male so they could do girl things together.
Yes Patrick’s life would certainly change, this did not complicate things but certainly made it interesting. Throughout the summer Patrick would do so many things with his sisters. Every day was spent as a girl and the male part of him was slowly but steadily slipping away.
