Totally devastated...

I just can't believe it. I have another brother. Not a big one, like the others, but a little one. A screaming, crying, taking-all-the-attention kind of brother. I don't know why I didn't see this coming...I suspected the maternal unit has something growing inside her tummy, but I wasn't thinking it was another human being! I thought that was my special place...a place that I might someday want to return to. I can't believe she used to make another little person...a brother! How sick is that?
I know, I know...all the clues were there. I mean, honestly, when they pressed my head against her swollen belly and said "listen to you baby brother", I had no idea they really meant, like, a baby brother. I thought I was listening to organ sounds or maybe some digestion...not a usurper or dethroner! I need to regroup. Think about my options. Maybe it's not too late to send it back. I mean, he's kinda cute and about the size of my baby Sam but not at all as quiet...and he's often quite stinky. I don't think I'm going to like this.
