Drabble Challenge #66 [Alternate]

Prompt: imagine

related to Maternity


She had always imagined she’d have a normal, forty-week pregnancy. She thought that one day, near her due date, her water would break and she’d feel the beginnings of contractions. She planned to go to the hospital once labor was fully established, have her baby, then bring her home in two days.

Unfortunately, that was only what she’d imagined.

In reality, she was under 34 weeks pregnant, and at her regular check-up, when the problem was detected. Her health was in danger, and the only way to cure her was to deliver her pre-term child.

She had never imagined THAT!
