A: More than anything the cause of miscarriage is that the fetus was unviable. This means had it been born there would have been something seriously wrong with it physically or medically. Second highest cause is just bad luck, Doctors couldn’t tell you the cause because they can’t do an autopsy on such a small fetus (yet) and there is no reason why the healthy mother would not be able to carry to term. Then there is the chance there is something wrong with the mother but you would most likely know if you went to the doc if that was the case. Then there are the Accidents (car or other) Lastly the self induced. Unfortunately having one makes you more likely to have another, Luckily I have know a lot of women who have had miscarriages and even still births that have gone on to have perfectly healthy babies conceived months later.Sorry for your loss andGOOD LUCK!!

A: They say miscarriages happen to 1 in 5 pregnancies, and usually in the first trimester. There is really nothing you can do to prevent a miscarriage. It usually is a genetic malformation and you can’t prevent that. The best things to do for your pregnancy is not to smoke, drink, do drugs, or stress too much! I know it’s hard not to stress, especially when your in your first trimester. As far as depo, I know people that have perfectly normal babies after taking it. Don’t stress too much, and just go for regular prenatal check ups!
