Watch and waitq: This is the hardest part of early pregnancy. This may be placenta implantation. Or early miscarriage. There is no good way to know. You can check HCG levels to make sure they arent dropping. This wont prevent but can help diagnose. I usually just recommend pelvic rest. Bed rest hasnt proven to prevent much.
