Pregnant Again After a Miscarriage 6 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy
                     PREGNANT AGAIN AFTER A MISCARRIAGE? 6 TIPS FOR A 
HEALTHY PREGNANCY
INTRODUCTION
STEPS FOR HEALTHY PREGNANCY
• Age, weight and medical 
conditions such as diabetes, 
thyroid or hypertension are some 
of the leading causes of 
miscarriage. Although these are 
not in your hands, but now that 
you are pregnant again after a 
miscarriage, these simple steps 
will surely help you to have a 
healthy pregnancy.
1. LIMIT YOUR MOVEMENT:
• During your first trimester, the baby 
transforms from a single fertilised cell to 
an embryo. It then attaches itself in the 
uterine wall. In many cases the embryo 
itself doesn’t properly attach to the 
uterine wall, hence causing miscarriage. 
 Additionally, other medical conditions 
such as gestational blood pressure and 
diabetes, you will be asked to limit your 
movement by your doctor to help you 
brave through your first trimester 
smoothly.
2. EAT WELL:
• Aren’t you feeling absolutely blessed and 
overjoyed to see your tummy slowly bulging 
out again? But your anxiety still remains 
intact. As your first and third trimester still 
worries you and happens to be a matter of 
major concern. To prevent any complications, 
during this delicate situation, the doctor will 
suggest you to eat what is right. Just 
remember, whatever you eat passes on to 
your baby and helps the fetal growth.
• Make sure your calorie intake goes up by 
600, and you get 2*10% more of proteins, 
vitamins and minerals through your food 
consumption.
2. EAT WELL:
• A quick salad with green leafy veggies 
or different coloured fruits punched with 
some curd and dressed with just about 
a small spoon of honey is good to fill the 
would-be mamma’s stomach and make 
her feel satisfied with the nutrients. For 
the non- vegetarian mums-to-be, a 
power-packed food comprising of 
chicken, fish and eggs is a must-have to 
help maintain the nutrient stores.
3. STAY HYDRATED:
• Limit your caffeine and aerated drink 
intake, as it can make you feel 
thirsty and dehydrated. Drink plenty 
of water, instead. A combination of 
coconut water and lime water in two 
or more servings in a day would also 
be beneficial to keep your blood 
pressure low.  You can also sip into a 
few bowls of some warm broth, may 
be chicken or vegetables.
4. SAY “NO” TO SMOKE AND ALCOHOL:
• A glass of wine or puff of cigarette may 
seem a cool trend these days but it has 
been considered to have a negative effect 
on pregnancy. Nicotine from cigarettes or 
the chemical contents of alcohol can rise 
the complications in pregnancy affecting 
the fetal growth, especially in the first 
three months, when the baby’s brain and 
heart starts developing. So, try to refrain 
yourself from these harmful substances 
not only during the 1st trimester but 
throughout your 9 months journey.
5. FREQUENT ULTRASOUNDS SCANS:
• Ultrasound scans to monitor the growth 
and the well-being of the fetus. If the 
scan shows that the fetus is not 
developing appropriately, it can pose a 
threat to the mother as well as baby. 
Pregnant women usually go for the USG 
scans once or twice a month. But in case 
of high-risk pregnancy, the doctor may 
want to closely tab on the fetal well-being 
thus increasing the number of USGs that 
you may undergo.
6. KEEP YOUR STRESS LEVEL UNDER CHECK:
• Since you have had an unsuccessful 
pregnancy previously, for obvious reason 
your stress level will be at all-time high. 
But, remember, elevated stress levels 
might lead to various complications like 
restricted fetal growth, increase in your 
blood pressure and can even heighten the 
chances of pre-term labour. So, control 
your stress level ; By forming a support 
group, where you can share your concerns, 
pursuing a hobby or by simply binge 
watching your all-time favourite movies 
and TV shows.
CONCLUSION
• Medical advancements have 
enabled doctors to keep a close 
eye on the well-being of the 
fetus as well as the mothers who 
have had a history of 
miscarriage. Thereby helping 
them to enjoy a healthy 
pregnancy and most importantly 
be gifted with a healthy baby.
