OP, just read through the whole of the thread having not seen it before.

Can I just give you (and your family) all of my condolences, these last 7 years cannot of been easy at all.

Unfortunately this won't apply for you, however it may be of use to others, if bereaved parents lose a baby before 24 weeks of pregnancy in England, they can now receive a certificate in recognition of their loss if the baby was 'lost' after September 2018.

And as others have said, there's no need to be embarrassed, it takes bravery to do this.
Thank you. It’s not changed much. Just subtle differences. The problem at the time wasn’t 24 weeks as that could also be a miscarriage. Before 24 weeks, back then, it was automatically a ‘non birth’ as not alive. Spent 4 months or so arguing the point. Hence the funeral is a lot later than was expected. Only way to find out for sure was an autopsy. If they were breathing on their own or not. But ultimately. No way were they going to have that and all it entails.

In fairness Petrus, your woe still exists. Having it whilst still holding compassion for the OP doesn't make you selfish.
