The primary objective of this study was to explore why induction of delivery for most women should not be delayed more than 24 hours from the diagnosis of intrauterine death. A secondary objective was to determine how the time between diagnosis and delivery should be spent<\/jats:italic>. <jats:bold>Methods<\/jats:bold>: <jats:italic>Twelve women were interviewed about their experience before and during the diagnosis of their baby's death and the event of birth. Interviews took place 6 to 18 months after the delivery and were analyzed using a phenomenological methodology<\/jats:italic>. <jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>: <jats:italic>Women experienced premonition, difficulty communicating their worry, cessation of verbal communication with staff, unreality and numbing, desire to get rid of the dead child immediately, going through childbirth, and total silence. Many women believed that they were not respected as a human being during the process of diagnosing the intrauterine death. Themes emerged indicating caregivers should not reduce to zero the time between diagnosis of intrauterine death and induction of delivery. Time may be needed to obtain medical information about the delivery and to prepare the woman for meeting with and saying goodbye to her long\u2010awaited but now silent baby<\/jats:italic>. <jats:bold>Conclusion<\/jats:bold>: <jats:italic>The period between diagnosis of intrauterine death and induction of delivery may give health professionals a major opportunity to improve a woman's ability to cope with the event of stillbirth and prepare her to meet with her loved but now silent baby. Further clinical research can identify supportive mechanisms for parents, and sources of iatrogenic psychological trauma that should be eliminated.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0730-7659.2004.00304.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,27]],"date-time":"2004-08-27T10:31:29Z","timestamp":1093602689000},"page":"189-195","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":80,"title":["The Silent Child\u2014Mothers\u2019 Experiences Before, During, and after Stillbirth"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Otti","family":"Trulsson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ingela","family":"R\u00e5destad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.312.7045.1505"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016349709024364"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","first-page":"3980","article-title":"Reactions on perinatal mortality","volume":"63","author":"Cullberg J.","year":"1966","journal-title":"L\u00e4kartidningen"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","volume-title":"Long\u2010Term Adjustment After an Emotional Crisis\u2014A Follow\u2010Up of Women with a Perinatal Death Infant","author":"Laurell\u2010Borulf Y.","year":"1982"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1523-536X.1996.tb00496.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","volume-title":"Kvalitativa metoder f\u00f6r v\u00e5rdvetare","author":"Dahlberg K.","year":"1997"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(02)09410-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.285.6353.1475"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"435","DOI":"10.2190\/C4EJ-H1WR-75Q5-VTM8","article-title":"Adolescent parent mourning reactions associated with stillbirth or neonatal death","volume":"40","author":"Welch KJ","year":"1999","journal-title":"Omega"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/h0080177"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/107484079700300203"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1523-536X.2001.00124.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_2","first-page":"218","article-title":"Perinatal bereavement support for families and midwives","volume":"109","author":"Foster A.","year":"1996","journal-title":"Midwives"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.1997.tb10639.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_16_2","first-page":"10","article-title":"The grieving mother: Care in the community","volume":"8","author":"Mander R.","year":"1996","journal-title":"Mod Midwife"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/01674829809044220"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_18_2","first-page":"28","article-title":"Improving management of miscarriage and stillbirth through better organisation and greater sensitivity","volume":"5","author":"Tranter S","year":"1994","journal-title":"Mod Midwife"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005721-199501000-00018"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.309.6970.1705"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_21_2","first-page":"295","article-title":"Perinatal bereavement counselling: How it has changed","volume":"50","author":"Thomas J.","year":"1993","journal-title":"Br J Hosp Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1176\/ajp.153.2.226"}],"container-title":["Birth"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.0730-7659.2004.00304.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.0730-7659.2004.00304.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,13]],"date-time":"2023-10-13T18:15:27Z","timestamp":1697220927000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.0730-7659.2004.00304.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,27]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2004,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.0730-7659.2004.00304.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.0730-7659.2004.00304.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0730-7659","1523-536X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0730-7659","type":"print"},{"value":"1523-536X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,27]]}}}
