yes it can, just because it is in utero doesn't mean it cannot get sick or have physical health problems. A friend of mines friend baby DIED in utero in her 8th month of pregnancy from a stroke.
Heart disease and strokes are genetic.
I am sorry to hear about your son.

Yes, a baby can have a stroke, or brain damage before he is born. However, babies have a great capacity to compensate for this damage. You need to ask the baby's doctor very specific questions, tell him you want to understand fully. Does your baby receive therapy? The therapist could answer a lot of questions

Yes a baby can have a stroke in the womb.According to my sons nurologist they think he did because his one eye is smaller then the other and one side of head is smaller then the other but I refused all testing.
