Carrying death instead of life is beyond understanding and a huge psychological challenge for a pregnant mother. The aim of this study was to investigate the mothers' experiences of the time from the diagnosis of the death of their unborn baby until induction of labour. ⋯ The mother's experiences during the time after the information of their baby's death in utero until the induction of labour can be understood as a sense of being in no-man's-land, waiting without knowing for what or for how long.
