Research Abstract

In order to identify effective approaches to care for fathers who have lost children to stillbirth, the present study describes the narratives of such fathers with respect to their experiences up until the arrival of their next child. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 3 fathers, and were analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods. Fathers whose wives became pregnant with another child after the stillbirth never forgot the lost child, and were concerned for their wives and new child. Putting on a strong front to the people around them, the fathers suppressed their pain and tried not to confront their own anxiety. Although they felt regret about the lost child as they brought up their next child, fathers forged a relationship with the lost child in an attempt to find meaning in the child's death.
