***Stillbirth and Child Death*** May upset some viewers

my baby died at 26 weeks and they told me that her heart just stop beating...and i could never geta right answer as to y she died ever doctor give me the run around i i here different answer from she autophy reports...

I just came from a funeral today. My BFF's daughter was stillborn on Sept. 15 2009.  She was just about to start her 6th month when the Dr. couldn't find a heartbeat and after 1 week, she was induced and gave birth Grace Marie. A poem read at the funeral mass, called "The Cord" is so beautiful and perfect for parents who are going through this.

I had my baby sleeping on Sept 10th 2007 2 yars ago today. I was 41 weeks pregnant with him

my baby was 10 lb 11 and 63.5 cm long.

An angel wrote in the Book of Life
My baby's date of birth
Then whispered as she closed the book
"Too beautiful for Earth"

i lost my baby 3 months ago. i went full term +1 (the day after due date). i went to the doctor and heard her heart beat then a few hours later she was gone. i am still struggling to come to terms with it. please go to gloucestershireSANDS websites and show support.

my sister lost her baby on Nov she only had 3 months to go

three days ago my wife started hurting nad the ambulance took her to the hospital, she have 39 weeks when she got to the hospital they started asking for papers and insurance cards and a bunch of bullshit instead of taking care of her and the baby right away, when they took her up the baby was still alive and about two minutes later the baby was dead, he poop inside her and breath it in and diedn his heart stopped, this happenned becouse they care about the money first, the baby weigt 7.8pounds

I would need to know more about the history of stillbirth before commenting on whether or not it is a tragedy on a national level. It certainly is for the parents of stillborn children, and I am truly sorry for their loss. I also know that compared to the number of healthy births in the U.S., 30,000 is still quite small. It would be great to reduce that number even more...but if that is not possible, maybe the only explanation for some tragedies is that they simply happen.

I don't think there are any more stillbirths now than in the past, in fact the number was probably much higher before prenatal care became standard practice, but the numbers are still fairly high - 1 in every 100 pregnancies will be lost after the 20th week. That's over 40,00 per year - way too many, by any standard. Cancer used to be a tragedy that "just happened" to people, until people started doing research and came up with treatments.

My baby died on May 02 - sat. Second time. 22 weeks 2 days ... :-(
