from From The Heart: The HeartKids Podcast · host Tegan Le Breton
What is pregnancy like when you have a congenital heart condition? Tegan had a Fontan procedure as a child. She's now 34 years old and a mother of three. Her experience of pregnancy has been different each time, and not always smooth, but each time it's been made possible through the support and careful guidance of her cardiology and health care team.HEARTKIDSFrom The Heart is brought to you by HeartKids, the only national not-for-profit solely focused on supporting and advocating for people affected by congenital and childhood heart disease.
