How do I know I'm still pregnant?


How do I know I'm still pregnant? The most conclusive way of finding out is to have an ultrasound done by your doctor or midwife to see baby's heartbeat. I say most conclusive, because even with an ultrasound, if you are early in your pregnancy, it can be difficult to see or detect a heartbeat with 100% accuracy.


What is the most common week to miscarry?

Most miscarriages - 8 out of 10 (80 percent) - happen in the first trimester before the 12th week of pregnancy. Miscarriage in the second trimester (between 13 and 19 weeks) happens in 1 to 5 in 100 (1 to 5 percent) pregnancies. Pregnancy loss that happens after 20 weeks is called stillbirth.
