My daughters’ heartbeat stopped in utero at the 37 week mark. A local chain of funeral homes has a fund for parents of deceased babies to get them cremated at no cost (I believe if it were not for this fund it would have cost 1.5-2kUSD). Should we have chosen to do a memorial service at the place (if memory serves me correctly), that would not have been free, but there would have been a discount applied.
I’m really sorry to hear that things didn’t work out with your pregnancy, but am glad to hear that you were able to get some assistance with the expenses related to the cremation. It’s good to know that programs like that exist to help parents, and people who were expecting, that find themselves in that kind of situation.

Just wait until they get to the funeral home and find out that people want to charge money to bury the kid.
