Conclusion
Women who have experienced stillbirth experience negative mental and physical health outcomes as a result of their stillbirth, many of which may impact subsequent pregnancies. Current inter-conception interventions are non-existent or based upon women who have experienced live births. Women who have experienced stillbirth may be interested in physical activity interventions to help them cope, feel better, and have alone time. Additionally, women may be interested in improving their mental (i.e., depressive symptoms) and physical (i.e., weight) health for subsequent pregnancies. Women report using activity to cope and are most interested in walking, jogging, or yoga interventions, all of which are low cost, non-pharmacological solutions to help improve depressive symptoms. Physical activity interventions may provide opportunities for health care professionals to help women cope with depressive symptoms after their stillbirth. More research in this area is warranted.
