- You know exactly what you're gonna ask right?
- Yeah I do.
I do baby. - I'll ask the appointment.
- You know what you're gonna say right?
- Yeah, yeah of course. - Don't freak out.
- I won't, I won't. - Mr. and Mrs. Lane,
nice to see you again.
How are we today?
- Good. - Oh you know us,
same as yesterday.
- You know in all my years of practice,
I don't think I've ever known another couple
that has scheduled as many appointments are you two.
- Yeah. - Yeah I know.
And I'm sorry, we just really wanna make sure
the baby's developing properly 'cause we've been
down this road so many times before.
- Well things are different now.
Prenatal care has come so far in the last five years.
There are very few surprises anymore.
Now, let's check on little Grace.
I'm just pulling up your diagnostics.
And there we are, picture perfect.
- The heartbeat and the--
(soft music)
(chuckling)
- Thank you so much Dr. Simson.
I know that we're not the easiest patients to deal with
but I really, really appreciate you putting up with us.
- Nonsense, I admire your dedication.
Honestly, I wish I saw more of it.
Is there anything else I can do for you two today?
- Yeah.
I'm sure I sound like a broken record at this point
but could we just reconfirm the details for next week?
- Oh yeah of course.
I have you two scheduled for Thursday the 23rd.
We'll begin routine preparations at 10:00.
I've blocked the whole morning off for you.
(chuckling) - This is it.
- I can't wait!
- Well you won't have to much longer.
I will see all three of you next week.
- Hurry. - Thank you Dr. Simson.
- Thank you. - All right and as always,
call me if anything comes up.
- We will, yeah.
- Bye!
- [Mrs. Lane] Thank you.
(machine beeping)
- All right. (machine beeping)
- [Computer] Good morning Mike.
- Mark, my name's Mark!
- [Computer] Do you want me to start calling you Mark?
- That's always what I've wanted.
In fact I've never asked you
to call me anything else. (machine buzzing)
- [Computer] I've just cross referenced
your account details, you did sign up as Mike Lane.
But I'm happy to call you Mark.
- You know what, I don't have time for this.
- [Mrs. Lane] Mark!
- Honey? - We gotta go, right now!
- Oh shit, okay.
Do you have the go-bag?
I'll call a car.
(soft music)
(exhaling softly)
Here we go sweetie.
Are you ready?
- I'm nervous.
Why am I so nervous?
- Don't be nervous okay?
She's gonna love you, okay?
It's gonna be our baby girl.
(soft music)
- It's a little early.
She's scheduled to be extracted in 25 minutes.
But little Grace is front and center.
A perfectly healthy baby girl.
- [Mrs. Lane] She's amazing.
- [Mark] She's so small.
- [Mrs. Lane] Hi baby!
I'm a mom! (giggling)
- [Mark] Come here.
You're a mom baby. (chuckling)
