Jack smiled and pulled out his phone to take a selfie in the changing room mirror. He had just finished his first aqua aerobics class for pregnant women and felt absolutely incredible. There was something about the water and the way it made him feel weightless that made him appreciate his pregnant female body even more than he already had. For the first time all week, the aches and strain seemed to melt away.
As he admired the photo, he found himself wishing the Great Shift had let him become a woman more gradually. He wished he had been able to learn how to be a woman step by step, to experience each milestone along the way, and perhaps even choose to become pregnant when the time felt right. Instead, it had all arrived at once, wrapped up in a single overwhelming package, leaving him to figure everything out as he went.
