A worry

My husband is worried about me. Most women here who go into labor, whatever the number, die a short while later. Or, even more distressing, the child will not live to even get to the age of one. My husband was distressed when he found out that I was pregnant. But I can't get rid of child; not safely, at least.

None of our birth controls are safe, or effective. Most of us end up getting pregnant anyway, no matter what we do. Besides, none of us can predict when we can become pregnant. It's almost beyond our control. I wish we could predict when it happens, but we just don't have the materials. For now, we're stuck here waiting for fate to make the decision for us.
