Miscarriage (spontaneous abortion) and stillbirths have been regarded as one of the most common reasons for losing a baby during the period of pregnancy. From the societal perspective, losing a baby in pregnancy either through miscarriage or stillbirth has been acknowledged as a taboo and usually associated with stigma and shame. Acknowledging the magnitude of the problem and the impact on the quality of life of the pregnant women, a number of interventions have been recommended comprising of enhancing access to the available care and services, ensuring continuity of care through midwives and exploring the scope of delivery of community care as well. In conclusion, miscarriages and stillbirths are preventable to a significant extent and the need of the hour is to offer socio-culturally relevant, respectful and dignified care of the pregnant women, regardless of the settings to ensure that it no more continues to remain a social stigma.
