High Risk Pregnancy Management

You will have at least two ultrasounds during your early and middle pregnancy, and in the later parts of your high-risk pregnancy, you may have ultrasounds as often as once a week based on your health needs and situation.

Early delivery (delivery before spontaneous labour by induced labour or caesarean birth) is often considered for high-risk pregnancies to prevent stillbirths and protect the mother from developing pregnancy complications.

Lack of muscle use leads to a loss of muscle strength at a rate of about 12 percent each week. After three to five weeks of bed rest, nearly 50 percent of normal strength is lost.
