Dead Babies getting birth certificates

This is what strikes me weird about this as well. I know people have their own ways of grieving and dealing with things, but it seems a bit far to get the government involved.

Okay that's BS, I spent a good 20 minutes finding those links yesterday and now they're gone.
I'm reposting this one because I think it's relevant and a testimony to how crazy parents of stillborns can be:

This link contains pictures of stillborns, before and after photoshop. If you cannot handle looking at a dead baby or you're at work, do not click on it.

This may be NSFW, if only for the crappy music in the background.

This woman had 14 miscarriages and now she has a website dedicated to her dead fetuses (is it even a fetus at 7 weeks? because it seems like they all made it to 7 weeks and then died).

I agree. Nobody made anyone look. You were very clear about they contained, and it was closely related to a central issue in the thread.

I'm choosing not to look at this webpage, but I think anybody on here who prays should say a prayer for this woman.

And it's not even good Photoshopping, either.

So why would someone feel comfortable telling a greiving mom that her baby wasn't even a real person? I know my baby was real to me the minute I found out I was pregnant. And this lady's baby was only 3 weeks shy of delivery. She carried that baby almost to the end. I can only imagine how real that baby was to her.

My sis in law...lost her child about this time last year and it was very truamatic....they had a funeral and everything...I didnt go because it was just to unnerving..to imagine a child that never made it in the world and having to bury it so i can only imagine how her and her husband have been dealing with this....
