Prematurity

To watch all of Marie Fortier videos about pregnancy and parenthood up to 1 year after childbirth, sign up for $35.00 per month or $69.99 per three months.

In this video, I am accompanied by Dr. Véronique G. Dorval, a neonatologist and director of the Neonatal Clinic at CHU Sainte-Justine to discuss prematurity.

Dr. Dorval experiences the arrival of premature babies every day during her work.

You know that I care deeply for the life and health of babies, and I hope this video will help you understand this reality. Learning about prematurity doesn’t mean you will give birth prematurely. We want to help parents prepare for every eventuality.
