Pregnant women in Switzerland expect safe and healthy birth outcomes for themselves and their babies. However, in 2018, 691 died in infancy with gaps identified in the provision of services to parents in such circumstances. Our study aims to illustrate these gaps and how, from participants' perspectives, they were addressed. A hermeneutic method was employed to analyze three cases: one from each major language region was via primary health-care providers. A thematic analysis was carried out with individual participants followed by a cross-case comparison which showed a hermeneutic of rupture, the juxtaposition of time and reshaping the family. This article shows the unique journeys experienced by parents whose baby dies before or shortly after birth in one country where neither the language nor experience is shared. The derivation of three hermeneutic themes may resonate with other parents or health professionals.

Article Synopsis
- One in three women experience Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), which impacts both their health and breastfeeding, but there is a lack of research on how these two experiences overlap.
- The study uses a qualitative approach to gather insights from Swedish women who have lived through IPV while breastfeeding, analyzing their stories to understand their experiences.
- Findings reveal that women face various IPV manifestations like being controlled or devalued, often in a way that is less recognized as violence, and these experiences are influenced by their personal context and the surrounding patriarchal society.

Reconstructing a sense of self is core to the psychosocial adjustment of people with chronic disease (PwCD), and meaning making is central to their coping with the diagnosis. Despite the growing number of PwCD living productive lives, their identity work is underexplored.
