"I thought I'd be a wild mess too. I guess these contractions aren't strong enough yet." he said "Well, lets not jinx it." Allen laughed. He grabbed the robe from Verna, but wasn't able to reach around his belly to tie it. After his contraction, he was acting more sluggish that before. Allen stopped when Verna felt around his belly. "Yea, they are. I used to play with them using a flashlight. They would go nuts over that. He opened up a small sliver in the robe so Verna could reach in and get a good feel for his belly. After she removed her hand, she place on on Allen's back to provide a counterpressure. "I'm doing alright, I guess. I really don't know how to gauge it considering it's my first time. But I think I'm okay."
