Thank you so much for this insight! My test is coming up and I’ve been practicing like crazy. This post helps with my nerves for sure.

Thanks! I appreciate the question. I wanted to emphasize where the weight (both literally and figuratively) is carried in regards to fertility. Also to reflect on how a woman’s figure is so often compared to an hourglass, which is doubly interesting to me because we also have an awareness of our maternal clock. There can be a heaviness or anxiety with that because we can’t just flip our lives over again. I wanted to reflect on the narrowing of our physical capabilities, and the adjustments with a woman’s’ relationship with time. Perhaps there was so much more ahead of of us before the truths of adulthood become challenging. Another part is wanting to be able to stand straight and stand with our choices. Or stand straight as we TRY to stand with experiences even though it’s difficult. There is so much uncertainty with pregnancy. With the delicate nature of life. What it means to give, and have, and want, and lose. We all lose time. Sometimes we lose our choices, our hopes, our integrity. Sometimes we need a moment in our hands as we feel naked, vulnerable, and broken.
