Random Harry Potter Fic Rec

I have to rec this story because:

(a) it perfectly captures the tone of pregnancy advice books; and
(b) it so chillingly encompasses the way squibs are discarded in magical society.

Title: An extract from The Witch’s Guide to Pregnancy, Birth, and Baby Care, by Alarica Rosier. Chapter Nine: What if my Baby is a Squib?

Thanks for posting this I totally forgot to look it up. Chilling, does a great job at poking at all the unspoken subtext.
