For pregnant women, France offers 16 weeks of maternity leave with 100% wage coverage. Those 16 weeks are split : 6 weeks before birth and 10 weeks after the date of presumed birth when you declared your pregnancy. You can also have the benefits of 2 weeks before the maternity leave if you have problems. Regarding abortion services, abortion is fully legal for 14 weeks of pregnancy/12 weeks of gestation. There are many clinics that provide abortions, and it's possible to even have your abortion covered by the state. | |||
