Stillbirth is the death of a baby of 20 weeks gestation or more. There are 6 babies stillborn each day in Australia, affecting 1 Australian family every 4 hours. Stillbirth is often preventable, accounting for up to 75% of late stillbirths. Evidence-based research indicates that intervention can reduce the risk of late stillbirth by more than 30%. Families and maternity care providers need to be educated on these critical factors.

Families need to know stillbirth prevention strategies. We need to educate maternity care providers and every family on the evidence-based research that can save lives. Our Life Saving Parent and Clinician kits need to get into the hands of Australian families. Our Clinician Kits now reach 60% of Australian families. If families are not attending maternity care, we ask you to share our FREE resources to educate them on stillbirth prevention. Every baby deserves a chance, and every stillbirth matters.
