The first three months of pregnancy are considered to be the most risky and crucial for expecting women, because so many developments take place in this stage. The very first trimester is often the deciding factor, for how your pregnancy progresses into coming months. Some women may develop complications later on, because of health or genetic reasons, but the first 20 weeks is when most miscarriages are likely to take place.

What happens in the first three months

Your baby begins to grow and develop rapidly in the first three months.

First month

This is the beginning, where the baby is still in embryo stage and the cells begin to grow rapidly, forming a primitive face. Blood cells are in the process and circulation begins.

Second month

Facial features keep developing in this month, along with internal organs, including nervous system and digestive track. Bone begins to form in the place of cartilage. Now, the baby enters into fetal stage.

Third month

The fetus grows and develops limbs and all the major organs. The internal organs keep developing, so that they can start functioning. At this stage, the baby forms fully and is even able to make slight movements of hands and mouth.

Most miscarriages take place, because of complications related to chromosomal anomalies. Nothing can be done in such cases, but you should not neglect taking certain precautions, which would otherwise increase miscarriage chances. Know about the causes of miscarriages in early pregnancy here. If you are careless about your wellbeing, it may lead to deficiencies and abnormalities in babies.

Miscarriage causes

  • The embryo may have failed to implant itself well in the lining of uterus
  • Hormonal issues or thyroid disease, autoimmune disorders
  • Malnutrition
  • Maternal age being 35 and above
  • Infections or ailments such as heart disease or kidney disease
  • Complications related to cervix or uterus
  • Lifestyle choices such as smoking, alcohol consumption or using drugs
  • Exposure to hazardous and toxic substances

After the completion of first trimester, the risk of miscarriages drops, because the baby is formed fully. You may experience mild cramps or twinges in the early days, but you need not worry about them, as they are normal. If you experience severe, continuous abdominal or back pain which may or may not be accompanied by bleeding, then you need to consult your doctor immediately.
