Brian Cinderford Former Gryffindor Care of Magical Creatures Professor "It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are."

“Darling, these things can happen. We have to go, if you’re in that much pain. Something might be wrong and…and…” he trailed off at the end.

“I’m not in that much pain. They’re just worse than the false ones.” She said quietly, realizing what was really happening and taking his hand. “You’re going to be there through the whole thing, right? Because I can’t do this alone.”

[profcinderford]

“Lucinda. We’re going to St. Mungo’s,” Brian said, in the firmest voice he could manage; one of his teacher voices. He looked around before picking her up bridal style. He looked around once more and apparated from where they were standing right into St. Mungo’s front lobby. “I’m right here. I’m not going anywhere.”

[profcinderford]

What do you mean?

Aren’t cribs supposed to look like that?

Lucinda took a seat, shaking her head. “They aren’t anything to worry about.” She said relaxing after a few more seconds. “But they’ve been happening like, every five minutes since we left the house.”

[profcinderford]

“Okay, yeah, you’re in labor,” Brian said as calmly as possible. He looked around them to see if there were any healers nearby. “Yeah, we’re gonna go to St. Mungo’s now. Take my hand, please.”

“What are you talking about? I’m not due for another three weeks. I’m not…I’m not ready.” She said, shaking her head. “This isn’t right.”

“Braxton Hicks contractions, they’re false contractions. I got them a few times at work about about a month ago. They weren’t this bad, though, or this often.”

[profcinderford]

“Why didn’t you tell me you were having those? Here, sit down a minute.”

[lucitalkalot-blog]

“Oh don’t give me that-” She started, before closing her eyes and clenching her jaw in slight pain, breathing out a moment later. “Merlin, these Braxton Hicks contractions have been happening all day.”

[profcinderford]

Brian frowned hard and held onto her arm at the look on her face. “I’m sorry...these what?”

Everyone loves a good gala.

[addiedolohov]

Everyone keeps saying that. I think I’ll have to pass on the next one just to change that.

[profcinderford]

What’s life without a little change, hm?

[lucitalkalot-blog]

“Oh, come on, I need to be here for work. I promise that the second I can, I’ll leave. Though, if you want to go, I can handle myself.”

[profcinderford]

“Still...can leave whenever you want.”

[addiedolohov]

Everyone loves a good gala.

I couldn’t resist.

[profcinderford]

Out of anyone, I certainly expected to see you here, Miss. Dolohov.

[lucitalkalot-blog]

“Thank you, I honestly feel like a hippopotamus right now, though.”

[profcinderford]

“You look wonderful, darling. Can leave whenever you want.”

Some days. Not all of them, mind you.  But a lot of them yes. 

[profcinderford]

Sounds rather exhausting.

My kingdom for a nap! Or a drink. I’m not picky.

Is this what it’s like being a parent?

[profcinderford]

Well...

[snapss]

Understandable, but when they’re babies and newborns, kids don’t always understand animals. And it’s apparently frowned upon to let an animal sleep in the same bed as your newborn. My kids love Caesar, my tiger. Great guard and nanny cat, that one. *chuckles* But it’s a fact that kids love plushies, so your mum was probably right to mention it.

Mm...-sighs softly- Stuffed animals can be loaded with bacteria and stuff like that. Doesn’t sound like a good thing to me.

[profcinderford]

Well...

[snapss]

Well, sometimes they do, but not often. *chuckles* Plush is a good choice. Any sort of plushie really. They enjoy something warm and soft to snuggle when they sleep, and if they’re very fond of a specific toy, they take it with them everywhere. Dei prefers his stuffed tiger, and Lena prefers a bear that her godmother gave her.

“Mm...there are loads of animals at my house already, so I don’t see the need for stuffed ones. But my mum had mentioned it.”

“Comfortably?” She asked, raising an eyebrow in his direction. “You try lying down comfortable while a tiny human being lays on your bladder and kicks you in the ribs. Not to mention makes it impossible for you to get comfortable.”

[profcinderford]

“I’m just teasing you, darling,” Brian told her with a smile. “Only teasing. I know it’s hard for you. I understand completely.”
