Perhaps, every soon-to-be mom fears of having a miscarriage at some point of her pregnancy. A miscarriage is defined as the self-termination of the pregnancy, oftentimes caused by chromosomal abnormalities, unhealthy lifestyle of the mother or health condition of the mother prior to pregnancy. Every pregnant women below 35 years of age has a 10-15% chance of having a miscarriage. Thechances of miscarriage after first trimesterdecreases. While most women keep themselves healthy hoping that they could spare themselves and their babies from being miscarried, miscarriage may still occur. Having a miscarriage can be very devastating. Most women and couples go through months of trauma until they finally fully recover from the unfortunate event. In this article, we will share with you tips on how to live life and what expectations may be madeafter miscarriage.

Physical recovery – It is said that the easiest and quickest aspect to recoverafter miscarriageis the physical body. A few days after your miscarriage, expect your pregnancy symptoms (if they still have not subsided) to disappear. Within one or two weeks, your bleeding should stop whether you have a D&C, also referred to as dilatation and curettage. Your risks to infection may be high during this period. To prevent any infection, refrain from putting anything into your vagina until the bleeding is completely gone. Temporarily avoid tampos, sexual contact or douching. If the bleeding persists or increases accompanied with fever or severe cramping, take this as a cue to see your doctor since these are signs of complications.After miscarriage, most women are able to get back to their normal daily activities in 2-3 days.

Emotional recovery – Unline physical recovery, the emotional aspect may  seem more difficult, more challenging and more difficult to deal with. Most couples are surprised of the different feelings that may be experienced after they lose their baby. Some parents, especially the women, feel guilty and end up blaming themselves for the loss. Grievingafter miscarriageis normal. Let lose and grieve – whether it's in the form of mild sadness or a full-blown grief - yourself the chance to grieve over your loss. Most depressed mothers find support from their partners or from their families and friends. More than just immediate family members, support groups made especially for women who have had a miscarriage may also be a big help.

Trying again – When is the right time to try again? The answer will have to depend on your and your partner's readiness – not just physically but emotionally especially. Some couples decide to try to conceive right away as a way of “undoing” the loss. Others; however, want to wait for a few months until they completely recover from the loss. Ideally, most doctors recommend that couples wait until the first two menstrual periods after the miscarriage.
