Editing Miscarriage (section)

=== Legal registration ===
Miscarriages may be tracked for purposes of health statistics, but they are not usually recorded individually.  For example, under UK law, all [[stillbirths]] should be registered,<ref>{{cite web |title=Register a stillbirth – GOV.UK |url=https://www.gov.uk/register-stillbirth |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170905051919/https://www.gov.uk/register-stillbirth |archive-date=September 5, 2017 |access-date=September 5, 2017 |website=www.gov.uk |df=mdy-all}}</ref> although this does not apply to miscarriages.  According to French statutes, an infant born before the age of viability, determined to be 28 weeks, is not registered as a 'child'. If birth occurs after this, the infant is granted a certificate that allows the parents to have a symbolic record of that child. This certificate can include a registered and given name to allow a funeral and acknowledgement of the event.<ref>Communiqué de presse de [[Rachida Dati]], Garde des Sceaux, ministre de la Justice et de [[Roselyne Bachelot|Roselyne Bachelot-Narquin]], ministre de la Santé, de la Jeunesse, des Sports et de la Vie associative, « Possibilité de demande d'un acte d'enfant sans vie », 22 août 2008, [http://www.sante.gouv.fr/possibilite-de-demande-d-un-acte-d-enfant-sans-vie.html lire en ligne] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120419184246/http://www.sante.gouv.fr/possibilite-de-demande-d-un-acte-d-enfant-sans-vie.html |date=April 19, 2012 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.service-public.fr/|title=Accueil Particuliers {{!}} service-public.fr|website=www.service-public.fr|language=fr|access-date=2017-11-04}}</ref><ref>{{Citation|title=Décret n°74-449 du 15 mai 1974 relatif au livret de famille et à l'information des futurs époux sur le droit de la famille – Article 9|date=15 May 1974|url=https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichTexteArticle.do?idArticle=LEGIARTI000006285245&cidTexte=JORFTEXT000000328986|access-date=2017-11-04}}</ref>
