Those of us who've had a stillbirth...
or really anyone who is interested, this is a very important matter.
I don't know about you, but I never got a birth certificate for my son who was born still. I got a death certificate, but a birth certificate, or even the choice to get one, would have been appreciated. Apparently a lot of women feel this way. They gotten a bill together and it was "killed" in legislation.
Please have a look here, and if you're interested please help. You can sign a petition.
Thanks for looking.

Re: Those of us who've had a stillbirth...
I signed as well. I received a birth and death certificate for one of my twins. The other twin was stillborn and I was only able to get a death certificate. It feels horrible not having his birth acknowledged

Re: Those of us who've had a stillbirth...
I had NO idea they did this to families of still born children - it's HORRIBLE. It seems completely ridiculous too...I mean, if they issue death certificates, it seems like a no-brainer that they would need a birth certificate as acknowledgement of the child's birth in the first place.
I signed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

signed. That's awful. You can't die if you've never been born. You need both.

Re: Those of us who've had a stillbirth...
HUGS to all of you!!! I signed the petition. I don't think most people even know that a family does not get a birth certificate for their still born child.
