Indexing Stillbirths

I noticed that on indexing they are indexing stillbirths only in the years up to 1952. Are stillbirths added to the family when entered on Family Search? Also would there be work done for the stillbirth child?

Thanks for your help.

    We index all recorded births and deaths on Family Search, they are part of the family genealogical history. As for temple work, that topic would be better handled by your local LDS church authorities - not everyone using Family Search is LDS and every family's genealogy is equally important.😎
