Pregnancy Hangups, Ch. 01

by Fidget

“So you don’t want children then?”

“No, Amy! I do want children, very badly. I just don’t want to get pregnant. That’s why I wanted to talk to you – I need your advice.”

“Why don’t you want to get pregnant?” Amy asked.

“I don’t know, I just get physically ill whenever I think about all of the changes that go along with pregnancy. It just seems so wrong,” Jill said.

“Well, the most important thing is getting pregnant – after that everything everything happens naturally, whether you’re squicked out about it or not.”

“I know that, Amy! You don’t think I’ve tried? Whenever Don and I try to have sex, if we’re not using some sort of protection, I get physically disgusted whenever he brings his thing anywhere near me!”

“Have you told him what the problem is?”

“Yes, and he’s been great about it. He’s disappointed, but supportive. We’ve even been to a couple of marriage counselors, but I just haven’t been able to kick my phobia. I can’t even go through with artificial insemination, since I have a panic attack whenever I try to make an appointment for one. So, since you’re my best friend, and I value your perspective more than anyone else’s, I wanted to let you know what was going on, and see if you had any advice for me.”

“Wow, Jill, I had no idea. I’m sorry you’re having to go through this. I really do appreciate the vote of confidence, and I’ll do whatever I can to help, of course. But this may be above my pay grade.”

“I know. I just wanted to give it a try. I’m desperate. At this point, I’ll try pretty much anything.”

“Ok. I’ll dig around a bit when I get home, and see if there are any unorthodox ways of getting over phobias that we can try.”

“Thanks Amy, I really appreciate it.” Jill said, and then she hung up.

A few hours later, Amy started looking online for weird approaches that people had taken to dealing with their fears. Drugs seemed a bit dangerous and extreme. Tricking people into doing an activity they were scared of without them knowing was an option, but Amy really didn’t want to deceive her best friend, and she wasn’t sure how Jill would react once she found out she had been lied to. Jill needed to want to get pregnant, but how was Amy going to be able to change her mind?

Late that night she came across a forum for people using hypnosis to cure their phobias. The method that the users there found most effective was a specific video file, with a simple spiral visual and a backing audio track that you could customize. The audio started off with a pretty standard induction formula, and then had a few minutes of blank space to record whatever instructions you wanted. This audio track was then blended with a calming brown noise filter, so that the instructions were just out of reach of the subject’s consciousness hearing. The file was getting rave reviews, and many of the forum’s users claimed to have been completely cured by it.

Amy was far from convinced about the efficacy of hypnosis, but it was the least insane option she’d found all night, so she decided to give it a try. She downloaded the file and got to work.
