Water in Her Womb

By Abrah Pamprochi

Ama felt completely drained. Everything she thought was important to her was slipping away: her friendship with Nia, her dreams of having children, her future as a mother. Ama didn't recognize her own sister . . .

Ama and her husband lost their young son in their home country of Ghana. After she and Kodzo immigrate to the United States, they're ready to start a family again. But Ama struggles to become pregnant and endures multiple surgeries and unsuccessful attempts to achieve her dreams of motherhood.

Water in Her Womb explores Ama's journey when she turns to assisted reproductive technology and her sister, Nia, offers to be Ama's familial egg donor. The sisters are extremely close, but mere weeks into the process, a huge storm cloud forms over them and, with tension mounting, their relationship hangs in the balance. The conflict with her sister throws Ama's world into a tailspin and lays bare her pain from infertility.

Ama is forced to confront the raw emotions of her fertility struggles. The human side of the treatments is a winding road that affects her relationships with her friends, her husband, and her sister-sometimes with heartbreaking results. Ama has to reconcile both sides-the technological and the deeply personal-and find balance between the two before she can move forward to a happier, healthier place.
