I would like to thank everyone who has signed and shared to far. Still a long way to go in order to get this into Parliament  but I have full faith that we can do this. 

  • An estimated 1 in 5 pregnancies ends in miscarriage (1 in 6 if we only count women who realised/reported the miscarriage)
  • Around 11 in 1,000 pregnancies are ectopic
  • About 1 in 100 women in the UK experience recurrent miscarriages (3 or more in a row)
  • In 2020, 1 in every 225 pregnancies ended in stillbirth 
  • 2,638 babies were stillborn in 2020 in the UK 
  • The stillbirth rate in England and Wales is 3.8 stillbirths per 1,000 total births
  • Approximately 7 babies were stillborn every day

 

Better facilities need to be made available for the parents who are have experienced miscarriage and still birth and together we can make this happen!
