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.

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 Chat Icon

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.Chat Icon 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.

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

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.
