How To Have A Miscarriage: What You Need To Know

Miscarriage, sometimes called spontaneous abortion, is a pregnancy that ends in the loss of a fetus before 20 weeks. Miscarriage can occur at any stage of pregnancy, but it’s most common during the early weeks of pregnancy.

It’s estimated that about 15% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. Some miscarriages are a result of genetic abnormalities, while others are due to issues with the fetus. Here’s what you need to know about miscarriages and how to have one.

How Common Are Miscarriages?

Experts estimate that miscarriage occurs in about 15% of pregnancies. That’s because all pregnancies are accompanied by some changes in your body. Most of these changes are normal and will eventually pass. But sometimes, these changes get out of control. Your body is likely to recognize this change early on and will attempt to prevent it from happening. If your body can’t successfully prevent the miscarriage, it will simply end in the loss of the pregnancy.

What Causes Miscarriage?

Sometimes, a miscarriage is a result of a genetic abnormality. This is why you may sometimes hear people say there’s “something wrong with your baby.” If you have a family history of miscarriage, you’re more likely to miscarry.

Other times, miscarriage is caused by something that’s going on with the developing fetus. This can happen when the environment, such as stress or

What are the Signs of Miscarriage?

Miscarriage is a common occurrence, so there’s no specific set of symptoms. However, it’s often accompanied by some of the following signs:

• Vaginal bleeding
• Cramps
• Pain in your lower abdomen
• Nausea
• Breast tenderness or a change in your breast size
• Feeling run down or tired all the time
• A missed period

What’s the First Part of a Miscarriage?

The first part of a miscarriage is usually the spotting or bleeding that occurs when your body releases the blood and tissue from the pregnancy.

This bleeding can occur anywhere from a few hours to a few days before you miscarry. It’s not painful, but it’s normal and will eventually stop.

The amount and duration of this bleeding varies from person to person, but it usually stops within the first two weeks.

After this blood starts coming out, your body will begin to expel the fetus with contractions. Sometimes these contractions are mild and won’t do much at all, while other times they can be strong enough to cause pain in your abdomen. This is why many people describe having a miscarriage as feeling like labor pains or cramps.

Eventually, you will pass out as your body expels the fetus along with any remaining amniotic fluid and placenta.

It may be difficult for you to get through this process without help from someone else who knows what they’re doing, so if there is any doubt about whether or not you should go through with it on your own, talk to someone about it immediately!

How Long Does a Miscarriage Take?

It’s normal for a miscarriage to take anywhere from 3-5 weeks. Many women don’t realize they are pregnant until they start having vaginal bleeding. In some cases, it can take as long as 8-10 weeks. There are some who miscarry faster than others, so it all depends on you and your body.

What Are The Symptoms Of Miscarriage?

The symptoms of miscarriage can vary depending on the type of miscarriage you experience. Some common symptoms include:

• Sudden weight gain
• Vaginal discharge that changes in color or becomes green or brown
• Abdominal cramps or pain
• Feeling nauseous, dizzy, or sick to your stomach
• Crying excessively
• Extreme fatigue
