The warning signs are stomach pain or cramping followed by vaginal bleeding and passing of tissue. Miscarriages are usually caused because there is something wrong with the fetus preventing it from developing normally. The mother’s health can also be a reason for miscarriage. If she has a thyroid condition, uncontrolled diabetes, German measles or an untreated infection, this too can cause a miscarriage. The idea that exercising or lifting can cause a miscarriage is false.
Stillbirths can be prevented by taking good care of yourself during pregnancy, such as taking prenatal vitamins and avoiding alcohol, caffeine, smoking and drugs, which can increase the risk of stillbirth. Keeping a record of how many times your baby kicks during the day will help determine what’s normal, since decreased kick counts could indicate a problem. Contact your OB/GYN if this occurs.
