In UK we try to deliver all our stillborn babies vaginally. Cause this is better view for your recovery or physical recovery. Unless there is a significant health problem with a mother and such as heavy bleeding or very high blood pressure which means your life is in danger, it's better to avoid cesarean section.
What would happen is we would give you initial drug to help end the pregnancy hormones and get you ready going to labor. We bring you back 48 hours later to have drug called misoprostol which will help you have contractions to deliver the baby.
