Fun little bit of story, and I like the back and forth between folklore and modern medicine with her comeback about the amniocentesis. The mom’s last comment wound up a bit jumbled and awkward though.
i think instead of saying “i waited until after my son was born” at the end you could have simply said, ‘i left the store bonnetless’. and the mom’s last line was awkward, but overall, this is a tale about a folkloric bit of superstition and it is told in dialogue, something I have trouble with sometimes. So kudos :)
