Intervals after stillbirths, after death under 2 years of age, and before and after illegitimacy were recorded separately and excluded from general tables.
They are secondarily influenced by the physiologically forced postponement of childbearing by some stillbirth-prone women.
Perinatal mortality, restricted to number of stillbirths and first week neonatal deaths, obscures t he real extent of loss associated with twin gestations.
Such a situation, which might well persist for much or all of the gestation period, could result in a higher number of stillbirths.
Disorganized attachment behavior among infants born subsequent to stillbirth.
Infant mortality rates from gastro-enteritis and broncho-pneumonia were high and also the stillbirth rate from all causes.
The analysis to examine risk factors for stillbirths also excluded twins.
For example, severe reduction in food intake in pregnant ewes reduced the birth weight of lambs by about one-third and greatly increased the stillbirth rate.
