What is "stillbirth"?
Stillbirth is when a baby dies in the womb after the 20th week of pregnancy, particularly before or during delivery. Causes can include problems with the placenta, umbilical cord issues, or health conditions in the mother. Symptoms may include reduced movement of the baby or no heartbeat detected during checkups. A stillbirth is a deeply emotional event, and support from healthcare professionals and counselors can help the family through these hard times.
