Wasn't it the case that many pregnant women continued to work and did well?

Rosalynn, pursing her lips, chose silence over debate.

Gail, emerging from the kitchen with a bowl of soup, tried to ease the tension.

"Rosa, have a taste of this."

"Thanks, Mom." Rosalynn managed a strained smile.

Sensing the tension, Gail inquired, “What's making the atmosphere here feel so? What did you two chat about?"

"I advised her against working, but she didn't sound like she will wait for the delivery at home," Noemi answered.

Upon hearing Noemi's words, Gail hesitated momentarily, then eased the tension with a gentle smile.

"Noemi, as a woman, you understand how crucial a pregnant woman's mental state is. The younger generation can't just sit around doing nothing. If Rosa stays cooped up at home, she'll end up feeling bored and down. We should let her choose what she wants to do.

Whether it's working or staying at home, her happiness matters most."

Clearly, Gail knew her daughter well.

Rosalynn's face lit up with a smile, showing her agreement.

Gail then turned to Rosalynn, advising her, "You've got to find a balance between work and rest, Rosa. Remember, it's not just you now; you have to think about the baby too."

She seemed to have a talent for keeping everything in perfect harmony.

Rosalynn admired her mother's emotional wisdom and nodded in agreement. "I understand, Mom."

Though Noemi still harbored some reservations, she chose not to voice them to Gail.

Shortly after, Brendan and Kyson returned, both overjoyed upon hearing about Rosalynn's pregnancy.

“Where's Brian? Does he know about the baby?" Kyson inquired curiously.

Rosalynn smiled and said, “He doesn't know yet. I'll tell him when he gets back."

Kyson glanced at the clock and asked with curiosity, “Why isn't he back yet? I'll give him a call."
