Yes, this is often done in the case of Maternity funerals, where both the mother and child die.- this was also done with the tragedy of Sharon Tate, part of the Manson Murders. The child"s body is ( iof course) dressed and is positioned on the mother"s Breast. (They bend her elbow) a Mother and child wake is a uniquely sad and touching experience and is very rare. It does happen, that is how it is done.

If both are deceased. The usual practice for this sad situation is to ( Bury them together- in the same casket) The Child is embalmed and dressed and is wrapped up in the dead mother"s arms. ( they bend her elbow). There is, obviously a large stream of flowers around the dead mother and child. Religious jewelry is on the Mother, such as crosses, rosaries, etc. It is a very rare and tragic event.

Is a woman who is 9 months pregnant buried with the baby in her stomach?

a similar case exists with Sharon Tate. after the cleanup from the horrific muder- the arrangements were made. Sharon"s child ( which had been ripped out- and was already dead) was embalmed and restored as was Sharon., The child"s body was clothed and was propped up in the folded arms of the martyred Mother. They were in the same casket. The mother and child funeral is a most touching and sad experience but can be beautiful also. Sharon was buried in her Blue Pucci Gown. Of course this was the aftermath of a crime- but normal ( if that word can be used) Mother and child funerals occur-but rarely.
