Episode 8 - Valérie Duchemin - Late termination of pregnancy

Category (s):
Prenato Stories
Postpartum

In this episode of Les Histoires Prenato, Valérie talks about her four pregnancies: a late miscarriage, the birth of Wilfred, the diagnosis of DiGeorge syndrome and the medical termination, at 28 weeks, of her little Albert. She shares the impossible decision, the delivery, meeting her baby, the support she received, and then her next pregnancy with Louis-Paul, somewhere between fear and hope. A sensitive, luminous account that breaks the taboo around late terminations and reminds us that no one should have to go through this alone.
