So does this mean the male genetic contribution to the baby is at fault, or is it a problem coming from the carrying female, that is inherited from her own father? Who has the genes that are at work in the stillbirth? The father or mother of a child? Read the title and went through the article, but still can't really comprehend it. I only know the gene is passed on through men. But in who does it have to end up for things to go wrong?

Reply to Newly published research is the first to show that stillbirth can be inherited and tends to be passed down through male members of the family. That risk preferentially comes from the mother’s or father’s male relatives—their brothers, fathers, grandfathers, uncles, or male cousins. by MistWeaver80
