The Baby Dies: A Doula’s Perspective features the first 24 hours
after attending an unexpected stillbirth.
As an experienced doula trainer, I am often asked, “What do
you do if the baby dies?” I hear this most often from
newer doulas who are afraid that they will not be helpful
or supportive to the parents. Underlying that question
is often another one that remains unspoken. “How do you feel
when the baby dies, and how do you get through it?” The
story that follows is my answer to that unspoken question.
