- W4313462362 abstract "This chapter analyses how childless women live in the contingency of both risk and hope to cope with the precariousness of their lives in rural Maharashtra, India. Childlessness even after several years of marriage makes women stigmatised and vulnerable in their married lives. Chances of husband's bigamy and divorce increase among childless couples. In such a situation, many childless women often recall and share their experiences of pregnancy loss with others, which is uncertain even for themselves. Some women even imitate pregnancy followed by a miscarriage, while following the instructions of spiritual healers. The possibility of miscarriage remains ambiguous and is the basis for the attitude of waiting for future pregnancy for women and their families. Waiting amid contingency is a time filled with hope and doubt for all of them. This chapter is an attempt to show that contingency not only creates a sense of anxiety and risk but also serves as a basis for creating social relationships in their moral world and a hope for women who continue to wait." @default.
