Аннотация:
She noticed. First once or twice a day. Soon, two or three times a day. It was March 2016. We lived in central Florida. Sadiqa had been pregnant with our child for twenty-three weeks. She did not have any pain. She did not notice any bleeding. But the discharge worried her. It was odd. It kept coming. Three days after it started, Sadiqa told me about it. I could tell she felt uncomfortable sharing. We live in a body-shaming society where even pregnant women are socialized to be embarrassed about their bodies. But as a physician, Sadiqa eased her discomfort by medicalizing its source, by observing and reporting her clinical symptoms as she would a patient’s. She called her obstetrician’s office not long after she opened up to me and told a nurse about the discharge, its increasing volume, and her increasing worry.
