HOW TO PREVENT MISCARRIAGE IN EARLY PREGNANCY







 

A miscarriage is the loss of a pregnancy before 20 weeks’ gestation.  Most miscarriages happen in the first trimester of pregnancy.  Chromosomal problems cause most miscarriages.

   

   -Be sure to take at least 400 mcg of folic acid every day, beginning at least one to two months before conception, if possible.

   - Exercise regularly.

   - Eat healthy, well-balanced meals.

   - Manage stress.

   - Keep your weight within normal limits.

   - Don't smoke and stay away from secondhand smoke.

    -Don't drink alcohol or have more than one to two cups of a caffeinated beverage like coffee a day.

    -Avoid illicit drugs.

   - Make sure you are up to date on immunizations.

   - Avoid radiation and poisons such as arsenic, lead, formaldehyde, benzene, and ethylene oxide.

   - Take special care to keep your abdomen safe while pregnant.  Avoid sports that carry a higher risk for injury, such as contact sports and skiing, and always wear your seat belt.

   - Check with your health care provider before taking any medication including over-the-counter drugs during pregnancy.

   - Avoid environmental hazards such as X-rays and infectious diseases.




Types of miscarriage

1. Missed miscarriage: You’ve lost the pregnancy but are unaware it’s happened.  There are no symptoms of miscarriage, but an ultrasound confirms the fetus has no heartbeat.


2. Complete miscarriage: You’ve lost the pregnancy and your uterus is empty.  You’ve experienced bleeding and passed fetal tissue.  Your provider can confirm a complete miscarriage with an ultrasound.


3. Recurrent miscarriage: Three consecutive miscarriages.  It affects about 1% of couples.


4. Threatened miscarriage: Your cervix stays closed, but you’re bleeding and experiencing pelvic cramping.  The pregnancy typically continues with no further issues.  Your pregnancy care provider may monitor you more closely for the rest of your pregnancy.


5. Inevitable miscarriage: You’re bleeding, cramping and your cervix has started to open (dilate).  You may leak amniotic fluid.  A complete miscarriage is likely.
