My brother just loss his child and he was not even born yet. It was a stillbirth. We are Catholics and this is very painful for us. He was supposed to be born next month. I also loss a brother before he was born but now I can’t really give my nephew a good answer. Does still born babies go to heaven? What’s the Catholic Teaching on this issue? I have baptized several babies that have been victims of abortion. Pls. give me some answers. thanks.
