Finding the reasons for stillbirth

In more than half of stillbirths parents are not given a reason for their babies’ death. Doctors simply do not know why it happens. This animation looks at how Tommy’s researchers are finding out the causes of stillbirth and how this leads to treatments and saved lives.

1 in 4 pregnancies end in loss – and most parents never find out why due to a shocking lack of research. It doesn't have to be this way – and Tommy’s research is finding the answers. But research into pregnancy loss is currently seriously underfunded compared to other medical conditions. 

We believe that every parent deserves answers. Let us know if you agree
