She took deep, slow breaths. She was trusting that Tan would be able to find them soon. She listened to the beat of her heart, closing her eyes as she kept control of her breath. This was different than last time. Last time...last time there had been a lot of pain, more than she had ever felt before. Last time there had been an intense feeling of dread as things quickly went wrong. She glanced back, worried suddenly as she remembered all of the blood that had pooled out of her last time. But when she looked, there was nothing there. Not yet at least. Swallowing back the worry, and keeping herself calm, she didn't feel any of the dread she had felt last time. This would be the day...she was both excited and afraid. Was she finally going to be a mother this time? She closed her eyes and prayed for everything to go right this time...

A soft knock at her door alerted her, and she opened her eyes and looked up to find one of the Hallows healers. She didn't know the woman personally, but she had seen her in passing and at the very least had a name. She nodded gently, gaze shifting to the young boy that followed behind Gwyn. She couldn't even say she was hesitant, because honestly at this point, she just wanted to make sure everything went smoothly and safely. "Hello, and yes, that is fine. The more paws to help, the better, I imagine." She offered a smile. She didn't know if the healer had known about her previous loss, and that time Claire hadn't sought the help of a healer. So this time? She was happy to have all the help they could get. "The contractions are not very far apart now. They've started up a little bit ago..." She was nervous. And she hoped Greed would arrive soon.
