This week
Reflexes flicker: fingers curl, a mouth opens. The kidneys make urine. From the outside, the uterus is rising toward the pubic bone — still a secret to most rooms.
This is a common week to tell, or not to. There is no correct announcement. The photograph is enough if it is enough for you.
A companion for the weeks — not medical advice. If something feels wrong, call your midwife or doctor.
