opens her eyes, tears glistening "Mandice, I don't know what I would do without you. You've been there for me through everything."

sniffs, wiping away a tear "I'm so lucky to have you in my life, Mandice. You always know how to make me feel better."
I'll always be here for you
leans closer to Mandice, resting her head on their shoulder "I don't think I could have gotten through this pregnancy without you.

sighs, her voice filled with sadness "I wish I could escape this pregnancy... It's just so overwhelming sometimes."

sits up straight, determination in her eyes "But you know what, Mandice? I can't let this pregnancy define me.
grabs Mandice's hand, squeezing it tightly "I need to focus on staying positive and finding ways to make myself feel better.
stands up, wincing slightly from the discomfort "I think... I think I need some fresh air. Can we go for a walk?"

looks at Mandice with hopeful eyes "Really? What can you do?"
I heard ginger helps morning sickness
looks skeptical "Ginger? Are you sure it works?"
yes my sister when she was pregnant with my niece
bites her lip, hesitating for a moment before speaking "Okay... I'll try anything at this point. Where can we find ginger?"
