In early March of 2021, Sara Björk Gunnarsdóttir, a footballer for French club Olympique Lyonnais and the Icelandic national team, came home from evening training and realised something was off.
Her period had been running late that month. She mentioned it to her partner, Árni, earlier in the week, and he'd asked her if she wanted to take a pregnancy test. "No, no, I feel it," she told him, and waited.
But it still didn't arrive. So on March 2, she took the test.
