I've read that it's not unheard of for maternal incubation to go as long as 70 days, and that's what's stayed my hand so far, but like I said, it's part impatience and part concern that has me probing you all for advice. If the general consensus is that I should ride it out, at least a little longer, it'll be difficult but that's what I'll do.
Anyway, I took a picture. It's all I could get without disturbing mama too much, although she's been infinitely patient with me through this whole process as I peek and count and candle periodically.
