- Babysitting
- "For the wrong baby."
- Shows that she has no emotional attachment to this baby.
- "I am afraid of her. If she wakes.."
- G.C is afraid of her waking up. The relationship between them isn't natural. (No maternal bond between them.)
- "It will not come."
- She cannot breastfeed. Physically and emotionally cannot help her.
- "Her hot midnight rage."
- Creates an atmospheric image as the baby makes G.C as uncomfortable as she makes the baby.
- "Milk-familiar comforting."
- Double reading. Could mean both comfort from milk and comfort from her Mother.
- "To her I will represent absolute abandonment."
- Reference to the child and her real mother. Indicates that she feels that she could never compare to the child's real mother, adding tension and stress to the situation.
- "For the wrong baby."
