Summary

This is a 6-week pilot study to see how research participants feel about an internet support site after a stillbirth or infant death. Losing a baby through stillbirth or early infant death is typically devastating for families. However, investigators do not know if internet on-line support for parents helps manage grief more easily. In addition to using the BabyCenter.com website, participants will be asked to complete online surveys at the beginning and the end of the study, as well partake in an interview. Data from this pilot study will help develop a much larger randomized control study of on-line support outcomes after perinatal loss.
