Pansy clutched Draco's hand. "So you're saying both of us are at fault?" she asked Healer Pilliwickle.
"I did not say anyone was at fault, Pansy. I said that there appear signs that both of you have unique fertility issues. I will need to do more tests and I would like to bring in someone who specializes in fertility. Possibly someone who specializes in bloodline analysis," the old witch said.
"The two of you have several things going for you that most couples who experience pregnancy problems lack. You are both young. You are wealthy enough to afford specialists. You are not so closely related that we have to assume that both of you will need to be cured for a pregnancy to go full-term, solving the problem for one of you might be enough," Healer Pilliwickle pointed out. "Finally, the pair of you have little problem conceiving. That is often the hardest part to manage. Our goal is to work out what needs to be done so that your babies will survive."
Pansy looked at Draco. She didn't think he'd want anyone studying his blood. She wasn't sure she wanted that herself. But they desperately needed to produce an heir and Pansy wanted other children. At least Healer Pilliwickle wasn't telling them there was no hope at all.
