#29 - Mother of Boy with XXY - Chelsea Castonguay

Chelsea Castonguay is a mother with a 3-year-old son who has Klinefelter syndrome. Noah was diagnosed in utero after Chelsea felt like something was off around 13 weeks and requested Noninvasive Prenatal Testing. Chelsea talks about how she was devastated learning her son would have Klinefelter syndrome 47 XXY. After Noah was born she talks about how they were fearful about telling family. At a visit with a specialist, they were told to "never tell their son he had XXY". Confused about what they were told Chelsea talks about how this consultation leads to their decision to overcome fear and open up about Noah's diagnosis. Opening up created a network of support they never had. Chelsea said she doesn't want anyone to feel alone and wants to support others just like those who supported her. Her Instagram: @easterneden
