Baby Love

Tres, SteveR and The Professor are a complex family. They have refused to fit into the usual couples mould, instead prefering a less conventional, open relationship - a complicated menage a trois. I was surprised when Tres and SteveR married because it didn't seem to be their style and when Tres announced shortly afterwards that she was pregnant, I was even more confused. Maybe the prospect of parenthood shook the trio's confidence in their bohemian lifestyle and Tres needed the added security. I know it has caused resentment between the men.

Then came Love, a beautiful baby boy.

We all know that the birth of a baby can put relationships under pressure. Tres is worn out and depressed and the men haven't been much better. Looks like the happy event has put them off balance somewhat. The men have found it harder than they thought to leave little Love's paternity unknown. Tres is refusing to allow a DNA test. She thinks they will eventually settle into dual fatherhood without one.

She may be right. We will see.

Tres and her baby Love.
