Play Script- Part 2

I went to the reading of the script with the pregnant character and I got through it well, I wasn't asked to imagine how it would feel etc, so that made it easy.  I guess it would have been a different story if that had been a poignant part of the exercise.  I did however feel uncomfortable with the several 'belly hold' stage directions involved.  The script was written by a mother of two, never mind.
