The Institute of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Trust (IOGT), promoting better health for women and babies
Despite countless breakthroughs in medical science we still do not understand why some pregnancies will end in tragedy. For most of us, having a child of our own is the most fulfilling experience of our lives.
All of us can imagine the desperation and sadness of parents who lose a baby, and the life-shattering impact that a disabled or seriously ill child has on a family.
