Not at all, dear: I think it shall be several days yet before he's back in New London. By all means, come down.

Do you still want me to make that appointment for you? I'm sure Ardenia would be happy to fit you in tomorrow.

I saw from Mariah that you're back at home. Everything all right, I trust? Was it a false labour or more trouble with the pelvic pain?

It wouldn't be unreasonable for you and Gaude to engage a full-time doula or Healer's Assistant to live in until you deliver. After all, you're within three weeks of your date, dear, and I know you wish to take no chances. Just having the domestics and elves is fine for saving you lifting so much as your wand but I'm sure we would all feel better if you had qualified medical expertise on-hand.

Did the Healer at least confirm that the pain tonic is still safe?

Do let me know if you've changed your mind about receiving us Friday. Lucius is taking Draco to Quidditch but if you're not up to visitors, Ygraine and I can reschedule.
