Having given birth to three babies (in the beginning of the third tri-mester) that did not survive, I know that this would have been a real comfort to me. They didn't even take the hand prints or foot prints for me to cling to. As I lost two in one year (one at the beginning and one at the end), the hospital asked me to return to speak to the staff of labor and delivery about the tragic experience and how the staff could do small things to assist the parents in dealing with this loss. I am so glad to know that they are putting emphasis on the greiving parents when nothing more can be done for the baby. GOD Bless you. BTW, just brought home our 6th great grand child who was in the NICU and was discharged on Friday weighing 4 lb 8 oz.
