    A Cuddle Cot is a portable in-room cooling unit that lets families who have experienced a stillbirth keep their baby at the bedside during their hospital stay giving families extra time to say goodbye. The system consists of a cooling pad placed under the blankets in a newborn bassinet connected to a small cooling unit to help prevent natural deterioration and preserve the body. It is estimated that 1 in 100 pregnancies result in stillbirth and this unit donated to BACH may serve military families experiencing stillbirth as they grieve. U.S. Army photo by Maria Yager.
