After navigating the barriers to abortion access, Rachel now faces the emotional weight of the experience—her body, her relationships, and the choices that linger long after the procedure.
As she processes the physical toll of the abortion, a conversation with her mother reveals a hidden family history of reproductive decisions. Meanwhile, her boyfriend’s lack of emotional support forces her to question not only their relationship but the broader societal structures that leave women shouldering the weight of these choices alone.
Darkly funny and brutally honest, Hypothetical Baby isn’t just about abortion—it’s about power, partnership, and what it really means to have a choice.
Hypothetical Baby is by Rachel Cairns.
