Arrangements after a miscarriage or stillbirth

The type of arrangements available will differ based on weight and gestational age.

• If your baby is under 350 grams or less than 20 weeks gestation, you have two options. You may choose to bury or cremate his or her remains through a funeral home. Or, you may choose for the hospital to handle the disposition of the remains at no charge.
• If your baby is over 350 grams and/or greater than 20 week gestation, you will need to bury or cremate his or her remains through a funeral home as required by Texas State Law.
• Social workers and chaplains are available to assist you with arrangements.
