Grace seemed to spent a lot of time in the bathroom, since the baby dropped. She felt like she had to pee every 5 minutes. She waddled back to bed and sat down. "Not laying down I just have to be back in there in a bit."

Abe smiled turning over and laughed slightly. "I'm sorry."

Grace waved her hand and shook her head. "No you aren't." She smiled slightly.

"I'm glad you are able to keep a smile on your face throughout this rough pregnancy." Abe smiled rubbing her back.

Grace smiled slightly. "Just try and look at it as a good thing instead of a bad thing." she relaxed a bit.

Abe kissed her neck, and rubbed her back more. "I'm glad hon." He sat up more.

Grace smiled and kissed him more. "I'll be back." She sighed and waddled into the bathroom, She let out a groan from the bathroom

Abe got up and checked on her. He saw her keeping her hands on her stomach and breathing. "Contraction?"

Grace nodded, breathing. She got up when it was done and fixed her nightgown, and flushed and washed her hands. Abe took her hand and walked with her. "Bed or walk?"

"Doesn't matter." Grace smiled and tried walking around for a while in the house. It had been a day and a half since Harlan did a membrane sweep. Grace stopped after a bit, and breathed through another one.

Abe was keeping track of them, and rubbed her back. "Doing good. About 30 minutes apart." He smiled.

Grace nodded and kept walking with him. Grace was trying to keep busy to keep herself from worrying and getting scared. She was downstairs with Abe playing a card game when Glenn and Maggie stopped by to visit. Grace was in shorts and a tank top now.

She was in the middle of one when they came in. She relaxed and smiled. "Hey."

"Contractions?" Glenn asked sitting down and watching Abe shuffle the deck.

"Yep." Grace nodded, and smiled. "What game we playing now?"

"Euchre?" Abe said switching to the right deck of cards.

"Sounds good with me." She smiled, she looked at Glenn and Maggie. "Join us. 4 person game anyway."

They nodded and sat at the table. Grace was on a exercise ball because it was more comfortable than a regular chair.

They played the game, and finished it in a half hour. They switched to Canasta, and then gin rummy after that. During that time Grace had some more contractions, and Abe stopped and wrote them down for her to put in the baby journal. She had kept one going since she found out she was pregnant.

Grace sat back on the couch, and relaxed. Glenn and Maggie hung out for a while and kept them company. "Let us know if you need us here." Maggie hugged Grace.

Grace nodded and smiled. "Thank you. Good thing you live next door. " She smiled. "Might be a good idea to have you guys here when I'm in full labor. Love you Maggie."

Maggie smiled. "We can be just give us a holler on the radio." She leaned down and talked to Grace's stomach. "You be good to your momma. Come quick and easy." She patted it softly and hugged Grace again. "See you soon. Love you too."

Glenn hugged her also. "Really call on us if you need anything. Hell I'll run and get Harlan for you if you need him quickly."

"Thank you Glenn." Grace smiled and hugged him back. "Love you."

"Love you Grace." He smiled slightly, and left.
