Mabel Quinn saw this and didn't insist further, telling her friend that if anything happened at the hospital, to give her a call.
"Alright, got it!" Alice Conley replied with a smile.
On Saturday, Alice went to the hospital for some routine prenatal checkups. She hadn't mentioned it to her parents, fearing that they would insist on accompanying her.
Actually, at this stage, her belly wasn't showing, and she had no issues moving around. Having her parents accompany her would seem excessive.
Alice registered at the gynecology department and waited for her number to be called. In the waiting area, there were already many people, and among them, many women were accompanied by men.
Especially when she noticed a woman who was clearly six or seven months pregnant. When her number was called, she struggled a bit to stand up from her seat, and her husband gently supported her, softly saying, "Take it slow, no rush." The loving care was so evident.
