Battle of the womb

Previously

…As the evening drew to a close, the women felt a palpable shift. The isolation had begun to recede, replaced by a fragile but growing sense of unity. They were no longer alone in their bewildering experiences. They were a small band, bound together by a shared, inexplicable ordeal. A silent promise passed between them – to stay connected, to support each other, and to seek answers, whatever form they might take. The echoes of conflict were growing louder, but so too was the quiet hum of shared strength. The battle within was far from over, but for the first time, they felt a glimmer of hope that they might not have to face it alone.
