According to ClevelandClinic, most miscarriages happen in the first three months of pregnancy, or in the first trimester.
It does not, however, mean that a miscarriage can’t happen after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Here are some warning signs of a miscarriage that you shouldn’t ignore:
1. Bleeding
The first sign of a miscarriage, says Today’s Parent, is bleeding or bleeding from the vagina.
In fact, not all bleeding is caused by an abortion. In the first three months of pregnancy, most women have light bleeding or spots. But be careful if the bleeding starts out as light spotting and then gets heavier and heavier, like it does when you have your period.
Most of the time, the bleeding is bright red or fresh blood, not brown.
2. Cramping
Be careful if a pregnant woman is bleeding or has cramps or abdominal contractions. Sometimes, cramps can also be a sign that you are having false contractions before you go into labor.
Women who are pregnant should be wary if their cramps or contractions get worse or hurt a lot. Back pain is often the first sign of these cramps.
3. My stomach always feels like it’s being stabbed
During pregnancy, it’s normal for women to feel aches and pains in their stomachs and the areas around them. But the pain in the stomach is sharp and stays for a long time. This could be a sign of a miscarriage.
The growing uterus can push on other organs and stretch the tendons, which can cause this pain. This can make pregnant women hurt and feel bad.
4. No sickness or other signs that you’re pregnant
Morning sickness, like feeling sick and throwing up a lot, is a common sign of pregnancy in the first few weeks of pregnancy. Most of the time, this early pregnancy pain goes away after 12 weeks, when hormonal changes are less noticeable.
Other signs of pregnancy are sore breasts, feeling tired, and having to go to the bathroom a lot. Every woman who is pregnant needs to pay close attention to the signs that she is pregnant and see a doctor if she no longer feels pregnant.
If pregnant women feel the signs of miscarriage above, do not delay to consult a doctor. Even more so if the woman has had a miscarriage in the past…CONTINUE READING>>
