Question 1

what to do during early pregnancy to prevent stillbirth?

Accepted Answer

Ultrasound, Testing: Testing and ultrasound are needed to evaluate you for risk factors. Also cvs or amniocentesis (testing the fluid around the fetus) may be needed as well. Your OB doctor will give you a good diet and vitamins to further reduce your risk.

Question 2

i delivered stillbirth during 24 week due to pressure..what are the preventive measure to take before next pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Exercise: If by "pressure" you mean elevated blood pressure or preeclampsia, the best you can do is to get fit and exercise.  Make sure you're at a healthy weight as well.  You can check your bmi to see what that weight would be.  Exercise, though, is the best way to bring blood pressure down.  You may need medication?  Talk with your md about that.  Exercise is free and effects are long lasting!

Question 3

how does listeria cause stillbirth in pregnancy?  is it possible to be contaminated with listeria and not have any adverse symptoms until birth?

Listeria: typically by infecting the bag of water.  The symptoms might be mild enough that you might not be aware of them.  Listeria is not a very common cause of chorioamnionitis, but is quite serious.

Question 4

im 38.5 weeks high risk pregnancy.....cause i had 2 stillbirths one at 36 weeks and the other at 20 weeks so will i beable to get my labor induce?

Accepted Answer

IF you were my pt: I would induce u at 39 weeks or earlier , if earlier u must have an amnio but since you are 38.5 i would induce u right at 39 weeks, as the ideal time to deliver is 39-40 weeks and i would be doing nsts and bpps each week until u deliver, indcucion is safe and easy and effective when done properly, almost all of my pts want to be induced, please call your OB to discuss and get it scheduled.

Not likely: In your case, while a c section might be needed that early, it would be better to do antenatal testing (NSTs and BPPs) starting around 32 weeks and likely cord doppler studies.  Having excellent control of your diabetes will help also.

Question 10

i developed a rash on my vaginal area during pregnancy, what is it?

Accepted Answer

Vulvae: I trust you are referring to a rash on the lips of the vaginal opening.  Some women get a strange rash during pregnancy and this is often treated with a few days of prednisone.  However there can be other causes as well.
