Discussing pregnancy loss and unexpected news in pregnancy can be incredibly challenging, not only for those directly involved but for society as a whole. It raises questions about what defines a person and how our laws, scientific advancements, and personal emotions conflict on this matter. Clea Harmer, CEO of the baby loss charity Sands, sheds light on this complex topic, delving into the discrepancies between the law, science, and our own feelings. Furthermore, we explore the intricacies of foetal testing and screening during pregnancy. Which syndromes are tested for and why? This examination of screening practices forces us to confront our societal attitude towards disability and our perception of risk. Dr. Gareth Thomas, a social sciences researcher at Cardiff University specializing in Down's Syndrome Screening and Reproductive Politics, adds his expertise to the conversation. If you have been affected by any of the issues discussed in this episode of Child, there are organizations available that offer advice and support.
