It's both strange and a little bit comforting to be able to check on her baby the way she'd check on any other patience. Its heartbeat, the way it moves, little growth spurts. Nina scoots back more until she can lean into Sweeney, mostly because it feels good not to sit up straight. She smooths her hand over her belly and looks down when she feels a little kick. A smile tugs her mouth.

"There you are," she murmurs to the baby. "Do you want to feel it?" she asks Sweeney.
