Resources to Help Families Cope with Infant Death

Overcoming the loss of your unborn child is an extremely difficult, long-term process, involving a quest for the right answers to millions of questions and an ample search for pain relief. Nothing and nobody could ever prepare two enthusiastic parents for the huge shock of discovering that their much-awaited baby had died before taking his or her first breath. Could they put the past behind them, by counting on effective stillborn grief management techniques to eliminate that terrible feeling of loss?

According to recent statistics, only in the US, one in 160 women lose their babies at 20 weeks of pregnancy or later and have to go through such a dramatic event, which always leaves deep scars and becomes an endless source of anxieties and frustration. Fortunately, there are a few national and international stillborn support groups, like First Candle, the BabyCenter and the International Stillbirth Alliance, which are currently trying to turn this social taboo into a bearable slice of reality, offering priceless stillborn support to those in need.

This is also the mission carried out by the FlutterBy IzzyJane Foundation, started with the purpose of helping grieving families overcome one of the biggest challenges. The FlutterBy IzzyJane Foundation alleviates the pain felt by the devastated parents of stillborn babies, who are looking for a few words of wisdom or for the distinct impression that someone truly understands exactly what they are going through and feels the same way. Hopefully, these FAQs will help.

What happens after I deliver my stillborn baby?

You should always discuss your options with your healthcare providers. A specialist could do further medical tests to determine the cause of stillbirth, but you should know that, in some cases, you still might not be able to discover the actual cause of death. However, a thorough evaluation would help you detect potential genetic problems and other anomalies which you should take into consideration, especially if you want to get pregnant again.

Which are the most frequent causes of stillbirth?

There are numerous causes of stillbirth, and, in most cases, multiple factors which lead to this dramatic ending of a story which was supposed to be unique and truly extraordinary. Some of the most frequent factors responsible for the death of an unborn child are: various birth defects, placenta abruption, insufficient fetal development, umbilical cord accidents, an overall risky pregnancy, an undetected infection or a severe trauma caused by an accident.

Could I actually minimize the risk of stillbirth?

Yes, by counting on the best prenatal care, a well-balanced diet, an exercise routine recommended by your doctor and by taking things easier, in general.

Hopefully, these answers will help grieving parents turn a new page in the book of life. The FlutterBy IzzyJane Foundation encourages their progress, offering the moral and financial support that they need, in order to say goodbye to their little angel. To support this wonderful cause, The FlutterBy IzzyJane Foundation creates and distributes forever bracelets, with the purpose of raising money to help pay for the funeral expenses of stillborn babies.

Forever bracelets are not just for mothers and daughters who are struggling to cope with this awful experience; they are designed for anyone who wants to make a difference in the lives of misfortunate people who will never get to meet their beloved babies.

    I simply had to thank you very much all over again. I do not know what I would have implemented in the absence of the entire hints revealed by you directly on such field. Certainly was a daunting scenario in my position, but being able to view the specialised approach you solved that forced me to weep for delight. Extremely thankful for your support and thus expect you comprehend what a great job you happen to be providing teaching many people all through your website. Probably you haven't got to know any of us.
