Vanessa's POV

"Come on honey, let's get you settled." I smiled.

She got into a gown and up on the bed, then I got my little monitor out. I began waving it about her belly, trying to find a heartbeat.

"Nothing seems out of the ordinary, she’s just having a snooze from the looks of things. Her heartbeat, oxygen levels, everything.looks great and she's moved down into your pelvis which is great to see." I grinned.

"What does that mean?" she asked me.

"It means she's getting herself ready to come into the world and make that trip down the birth canal." I said, giving her hand and encouraging squeeze.

"Okay, I'm so sorry I'm such a pain. I, well, I never told you guys this, but I had a twin in the womb. She died because my mum thought she was taking a snooze, so I've always been scared I wouldn't know...." she whispered.

Now everything made so much sense.

"Well if anything was abnormal we'd pick it up." I assured her. "Technology for pregnancies and child birth has come a long way."

"I'm just scared I guess, little Emily Jane here is my heart and soul, I don't want to lose her. Doing this on my own is hard enough." she smiled.

"You're not alone sweetie, you have us and in a week or less you'll have your little girl." I soothed.

"A week or less? You think?" she asked, brightly.

I nodded. "When babies drop down into the pelvis it's drawing very close."

"Oh my gosh, thank you so much Vanessa," she smiled.

We got her all dressed and out the door, leaving happier than she has in the past.

"What did you do to her?" Jeny said with a dumb-struck look. "I can never get her to look that happy."

"Long talk, there's reasons behind her issues and most importantly baby Emily has descended into the pelvis. The time is getting very close." I smiled. Just then my phone beeped.
