No: Unfortunately, first trimester miscarriages are very common.  Genetic problems, and the shift of hormone support from ovary to placenta seem to be the causes for most. Sex and orgasms don't cause miscarriages.

Question 6

can i eat guava during first trimester ?

Accepted Answer

Yes : There are no restrictions on fruits and vegetables.

Question 7

how much weight gain in first trimester?

Accepted Answer

Very little: Weight gain in pregnancy will vary from person to person. I encourage people to be healthy instead of focusing on weight gain. You only need 300 extra calories per day during pregnancy and this is in the third trimester. In the first trimester when the baby is less than two inches long you should be gaining very little.

Question 9

what causes fatigue in the first trimester?

Hormones: During the first trimester there are a lot of extra hormones around.  Some of those can cause you to be tired. If you feel particularly tired, you should ask to have your thyroid checked by your ob.  Feel free to take naps if you can.

Question 10

im spotting n im in my first trimester why?

Accepted Answer

Fairly common: To have spotting in the first trimester. It occurs in 25% of patients and can be due to a number of things, but i recommend a sono to make sure is isn't a miscarriage. If not- it can occur due to implantation of an early pregnancy, or due to formation of the placenta, or due to a subchorionic hemorrhage, or due placenta developing close to or overlyin the cervix.  Only way to know is to get a sono.
