"Baby's breech," she says, withdrawing. She listens to the heartbeat again.

[Plutexian Mpregger]

"What?" Gio is trying to fight the urge to push.

[pushinghard]

"Breech is where the baby is bottom first in some way," she begins calmly. "In your case baby's feet first. It's okay, it takes a little extra work, and sometime they need a little help transitioning. It's going to be alright," she promises with sincere eyes.

Gio knows that this requires extra strength. When the next contraction comes on, he pushes with all of his might.

[pushinghard]

"Good Gio," she encourages. "You okay?" She mouths to Dr. Takeda.

[Plutexian Mpregger]

"I'm okay." Dr Takeda replies.

Gio pushes with all of his might.

[pushinghard]

"Good job," she encourages, watching him bring his baby down.

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Gio keeps at it.

[pushinghard]

"There you go," she checks the heart rate again.

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Gio is starting to show signs of exhaustion (he needs the mask again).

[pushinghard]

(Yep, I was thinking the same.)

"Let's get that oxygen going again," she says to Dr. Takeda. "Deep breaths Gio, take a little break."

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Dr Takeda turns the machine on and puts the mask on Gio. Gio takes deep breaths.

[pushinghard]

"Good, push again when you're ready."

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Gio nods, and when the next contraction comes on, he pushes. His hair is sticking to his head.

[pushinghard]

"Good, seeing an opening when you're pushing," Anna encourages, knowing he's exhausted.

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Gio gives it his all, though exhaustion is starting to take over.

[pushinghard]

"I see a foot," she encourages. "Don't give up on me Gio."

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Gio pushes with all of his might. He is willing himself to do it, as he wants to meet the baby.

[pushinghard]

"We have little feet," she smiles,preparing the delivery supplies.

[Plutexian Mpregger]

Gio smiles, though he knows that there is still a long way to go before he can meet his baby (and Asami's younger sibling).
