When TFMR is for YOUR health. Marie-Laure shares how she lost her baby Juliette to early onset preeclampsia.

Our TFMR Stories

When TFMR is for YOUR health, also called Termination for Maternal Health or Termination for the Pregnant Person’s Health, it can bring an extra layer of survivor’s guilt. Marie-Laure shares how she lost her baby Juliette to early onset preeclampsia with severe features and IUGR (intrauterine growth restriction). Her symptoms became more pronounced around 22 to 24 weeks pregnant. She shares the roller coaster of her illness and diagnosis and end of the pregnancy with Juliette.

TFMR for maternal health can feel less represented in the ending a wanted pregnancy space - let’s talk about it!
