Pregnancy & Infant Loss

Losing a baby — either during pregnancy or after birth — may be one of the most heartbreaking and painful experiences a parent will ever endure. Yet these experiences are more common than most of us realize. According to the National Institute of Health, about 10-15% of women will experience a miscarriage, about 24,000 U.S. babies are stillborn each year, and over a thousand babies die each year in the U.S. of Sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS

Dr. Roya Pilcher and her husband lost their child after seven months in the NICU. In all this grief, Dr. Pilcher shares why they created, the Ava Potter Pilcher Foundation.
