“If you can’t handle the struggles of pregnancy, just terminate it already!”
And now, I finally realized that he meant every word.
How ridiculous.
But was it too cruel for me to realize this now?

“A coworker had a baby, and we didn’t have much to give her. I figured we could give her what we got for our baby, and we’ll buy more once you’ve delivered.”
I froze for a moment, instinctively touching my belly.
