Beth slumps back against the bed, all too happy to let Spike take his turn.
First there's this vague feeling of silent frustration, but it's quickly replaced by the reminder that there's someone to take turns with for this kind of thing.
That in itself is something to be hugely thankful for, and for a moment she just sprawls luxuriously out on the bed, reveling in the fact that she's not needed this time. But soon enough she's up again, off the bed and crouched down enough so her face is close to her daughter's, playing with one tiny hand and providing distraction while a new diaper's put on.
