Parents' experiences of midwife‐managed care following the loss of a baby in a previous pregnancy

Abstract

The findings have implications for both nurses and midwives in their practice in countries where optimum care of this vulnerable population is not routinely available. The research supports midwife-managed models of care to ensure women and their families are appropriately supported in crisis. The findings provide insight also into the diverse grief response among couples and the difficulties experienced in a pregnancy following the loss of a baby.
