Stillbirth refers to the loss of a baby during pregnancy after the 20th week, when the fetus has died but is still in the womb. This tragic event can occur for various reasons, including complications with the placenta, genetic disorders, or maternal health issues. It is a deeply emotional experience for families and can lead to significant grief and loss. The causes of stillbirth are often complex and may not always be identifiable. Healthcare providers may conduct tests to determine potential factors, but in many cases, the exact reason remains unknown. Support and counseling are essential for families coping with the aftermath of stillbirth, helping them navigate their feelings and find healing.
