Stillbirth

Stillbirth is the loss of a baby after 20 weeks of pregnancy, when the baby has died in the womb before birth. It can happen for various reasons, such as health problems with the mother, issues with the placenta or umbilical cord, or fetal abnormalities. Stillbirth is a tragic event that often leaves parents grieving deeply. While some causes are unknown, medical care and monitoring can help reduce risks. It is important to seek support and counseling if experiencing this loss, as it can be an emotionally difficult experience.
