Yes, in the Catholic church. the remains are placed in a mortuary vessel of some sort- usually there is no viewing, and a ( Mass of the Angels) is given for the repose of the deceased. The corpse must be buried in Consecrated Ground, such as a Church cemetery or burial vaults in churches or convents.

Something similar would be a funeral mass, etc peformed for a still born child, which might be considered a Fetus. The child is baptized, and as that implies, given a Christian name- and must be buried in consecrated grounds at church-approved cemeteries. There is usually a juvenile section in the larger memorial parks. This is usually called the Mass Of the Angels. One could argue thart Angels are spirit beings and have no mass! oh well some light moments for this heavy-duty tragedy.

Why don't stillborn babies get a death cerf or why don't they get a birth cerf WHY?

In Canada the mother of a stillborn child has the right to a Death Certificate. It hardly makes sense if anti abortionists feel a baby is living from the time of conception and then just because it is stillborn it no longer exists as a human being. YOU have every right to ask for a Death Certificate and demand one! There would be no Birth Certificate as the child was stillborn. I am very sorry if this has happened to you. Fight for that Death Certificate!
