We understand how a miscarriage can turn your world upside down, causing profound grief for you and your partner, as well as for your family and friends. It also can create fears about future pregnancies.
Among women who know they are pregnant, about 10 to 15 out of 100 pregnancies end in miscarriage. Most miscarriages happen in the first trimester or 13 weeks of pregnancy. Second-trimester miscarriage happens in just 1 to 5 out of 100 pregnancies.
Your Mercy care team is here to help you through a miscarriage and give you hope. Our doctors, fertility specialists and fetal care experts collaborate with counselors and wellness experts to help you conceive, carry and deliver a healthy baby.
Inherited disorders, chronic health problems and high-risk pregnancies are just a few of the factors that can raise the risk of miscarriage – yet countless women with these risks go on to have healthy babies.
Our doctors and specialists are experts in diagnosing and managing these conditions even before you get pregnant and throughout your pregnancy. Our genetic counselors can help you identify medical conditions that may run in your family and affect your pregnancy. Through extensive prenatal testing and fetal monitoring, we can detect potential problems that may increase the risk of miscarriage and offer options to resolve them.
