A miscarriage, or spontaneous abortion, is an event that results in the loss of a fetus before 20 weeks of pregnancy.
Gestational diabetes
Gestational diabetes occurs when your body cannot process sugars effectively. This leads to higher-than-normal levels of sugar in the bloodstream.
Some women will need to modify their meal plans to help control blood sugar levels. Others may need to take insulin to keep their blood sugar levels in control.
Gestational diabetes usually resolves after pregnancy.
Placenta previa
Placenta previa means that the placenta is covering the cervix. Doctors will usually perform a cesarean delivery if this is the case.
Most women also suffer from infections such as UTI’s during pregnancy.
