Hello there, Mom ! As you begin your journey to motherhood, the word “miscarriage” can feel terrifying—but understanding it is key to facing it with strength. This video gently explains what miscarriage is, why it happens, and what early signs you should never ignore—like heavy bleeding, strong cramps, or sudden loss of pregnancy symptoms. While not all miscarriages are preventable, avoiding smoking, alcohol, and managing health conditions can reduce risks. If you’re worried or unsure, reach out immediately. You’re not alone—Apollo doctors and our caring community are always here to support you. You’ve got this, Supermom. And we’re with you, every step of the way.

Hello there, MOM,

‘Mom’. This is the one word you want to hear the moment you start your pregnancy journey. Isn’t it?

But there’s another word we don’t ever want to hear.

And that’s miscarriage.

Miscarriage is loss of pregnancy before the 20th week. It can affect 10-15% of confirmed pregnancies. It usually happens due to natural causes like chromosomal abnormalities, hormonal imbalances, or maternal health issues.

Yes. It is extremely unfortunate, but we must understand it to take away its power.

Keep track of your symptoms. If in the first twenty weeks, if you experience vaginal bleeding or abdominal cramps that are more severe than menstrual cramps or reduced symptoms of pregnancy, talk to your doctor immediately.

While a miscarriage is not entirely avoidable, we can be cautious about avoiding a few things at all costs. Indulging in smoking and drinking can severely harm the developing fetus; avoid at all costs.

Miscarriage is not easy to understand and deal with. If you have any doubts, Apollo doctors and our community are here for you.

You have got this, Supermom.
