Please know that you have my sympathies. I cannot begin to imagine how horrible that must have been.

I was reminded that priests will sometimes baptize immediately after natural death based on the fact that we don’t know for a certainty when the soul leaves the body and baptism is for the soul. However, I do not believe that they are ever done for stillborns.

Thanks Wag,...I have observed that I understand the biblical quote about weeping and gnashing of teeth.. because that is what the ER sounded like as our families mourned that baby ... But I do trust I will see him again ... Christ gives us all that hope..
