Last August, Maeva and Claude said yes to each other for life. But that same day, the woman gave birth to their child.
Happiness never comes alone! Maeva Albaret and Jean-Claude Jeanson, both 32 years old, have been together for 15 years. 9 months pregnant, Maeva gets married to her partner in August. But after the wedding ceremony comes the surprise…”I felt the first contractions around 2:30 p.m. in front of the town hall. I admit to you that I was starting to struggle, to keep smiling and stay upright so as not to alert the family. When we left the town hall at 3:00 p.m., the contractions were getting closer. Our baby will have given us time to wrap up and welcome the guests at the reception, time to have an aperitif and take some photos. At 4:30 p.m. I couldn't take it anymore, and the family finally understood. The grandparents and parents seeing this sent me to take a shower in order to check that it was not a false alarm.
But still so much pain, and closer and closer together. Pushed by the family, her husband takes the car keys and heads to CHOR at full speed for a pick-up before 6:00 p.m.
And there, her child arrives. “A quarter of an hour later, the baby is here. Doubly happy about this day, intense in emotions. The smiles return. We feel blessed with love.” The wedding party was “put on pause” when they left for CHOR. The family remained waiting for news.
Once the good news was announced by video call, the party left. “They were proud of us and very happy at the same time. They will have celebrated for us. That's exactly what we wanted them to do.”
“We knew very well that we were taking a very big risk. We had promised ourselves without regrets. And, the people around us (family, friends, and professionals) all did to ensure that this day went so well for us And we thank them for that.“
Double good news for these happy parents!
