"Oh...I'm fine."

*Lydia waved it off with a smile. She didn't want Peter to worry like she was worried because it wouldn't be good for him*

"Let's get you walking."

*She moved to him with her hand onto his back*

After walking around for 20 minutes, Peter sat on the couch, tired and moaning as another contraction made his belly become har as a rock. He was all sweaty now, and feeling hot. Rowan realized that and said "Peter, you are very tired and still on the first stages of labor. I think you should take a shower, watch some TV and go to sleep. We will check your dilation again after you take the shower, just to have an idea of the rythim of your body."

Peter looked at Rowan and said "I don't think i'll be able to sleep, Rowan, i'm having contractions every 15 minutes"

"I know, Peter, but you have to get some rest, so you will be able to push the babies when it is time. It's late night, it's half past midnight. If you stay awake all night, you will be much more tired when you are fully dilated, and it will be much harder for you to push the babies when time comes"

Peter sighed, but agreed. Rowan looked at Lydia and asked "Do you think you can help him with the shower? I'm going to prepare his bed, after that i'll come to help you. You can sleep here if you want. Peter's room has a double bed, but you can sleep in my room if you want, and i'll sleep in the couch, on the living room"
