Ana Lepe Vick (@stillmyson.bsky.social) is a #stillbirth prevention advocate in memory of her son, Owen.

Ana reminds us: “Every baby born still, still counts.”

#Stillbirths hit the most vulnerable hardest - it’s a social justice issue.

“My daughter Madison was born still. Stillbirth shattered my world. The silence is isolating."

Henderson Lafond reflects on #stillbirth as a #SocialJustice issue. She calls for urgency, visibility & change to do better; every baby matters.

“My twins died before they could take their first breath. My babies mattered and I’ll never stop saying their names.”

Stillbirth isn’t rare. It happens every day, quietly & invisibly.

Michelle La Fontaine, bereaved parent from Canada

"My baby Amani died. It broke me, but also led me to advocate for better."

Vivian's story is one of heartbreak & hope. No one should lose a baby because care was too late. #Stillbirths are preventable with better care, systems and justice.

Pregnancy should be joyful. But for many in Africa, it’s filled with anxiety, loss, and injustice.

Linda Vanotoo reminds us that #stillbirth is preventable.

The time to act is now.

#EndStillbirths #HealthyBeginnings #HopefulFutures #IamISA

We don’t talk enough about #stillbirth. Not in health policy. Not in global reports.
Not where it matters most.

But families never forget.

I'm speaking up as part of the #IAmISA campaign.

“Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.”

#Stillbirth is a silent crisis—1.9 million babies lost each year.

@aleenawoj.bsky.social reminds us: this is about real babies, real families, and real injustice.

#IamISA #EndStillbirths #HealthyBeginnings #HopefulFutures

I choose to talk about my experience because #stillbirth cannot be tiptoed around or whispered about as “unimaginable.” Babies are #stillborn at alarming rates worldwide. It is a public health crisis. Parents are grieving and traumatized. #IamISA #EndStillbirths #HopefulFutures

“I first learned about stillbirth at the time that I had one”

@dramybowers.bsky.social - a psychologist and bereaved mother - shares how denial and silence surround #stillbirth.

She’s breaking the #stigma.

Our board member Odessa Omanyo is a neonatal clinical instructor. She cared for a mother who lost her baby at 28 weeks - mocked for her grief, told she was “planting coffins instead of crops.”
