“Are you going to be sick? Let me help you.”
“You have never been more beautiful to me than when you are heavy with my child.”
“Take my arm, you waddle like a sea lion on land.”
“Are you not excited? You are not saying much…”
“Oh no, no, no, I should not be bleeding.”
“It is far too early for the baby to come!”
“The pain started an hour ago and it happened so quickly. There was blood and then it was over.”
“Why is there blood on your dress?”
“I came as fast as I could. The babe…?”

“Quick, help me lie down. I think I can feel the head coming.”
“Please don’t leave me alone here with strangers! I am afraid.”
