A pregnancy is considered high-risk pregnancy when there are medical, surgical, or obstetrical conditions that could pose challenges for the mother, baby, or both. These situations require specialized care, close monitoring, and sometimes additional treatments to ensure a safe pregnancy and delivery.

Pregnant women who are at higher risk typically require more regular check-ups than those who are at lower risk. These visits may be every two weeks or even weekly, depending on the specific risks.
You may experience additional monitoring, regular blood tests, more frequent ultrasounds, and sometimes hospitalization or bed rest. Your healthcare provider will guide you through what is necessary to ensure the safety of both you and your baby. You may also be prescribed medication or given recommendations for lifestyle changes.
It depends on the nature of your high-risk factors. Many women with high-risk pregnancies are able to have vaginal births, though some may require a cesarean section for safety reasons. Your gynaecologist will discuss the best delivery plan with you based on your specific condition.
Exercise during a high-risk pregnancy depends on the underlying condition and the doctor’s advice. In many cases, moderate exercise like walking or swimming may be beneficial, but more strenuous activities may need to be avoided. Seek opinion of your doctor before starting or continuing any exercise routine.
Yes, high blood pressure can cause serious complications like preeclampsia, foetal growth restriction, or premature birth.
Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy and can affect the baby’s health if left untreated. Treatment usually includes dietary changes, blood sugar monitoring, and possibly insulin therapy. Regular prenatal visits are important to manage and monitor blood sugar levels.
Bed rest is sometimes recommended for women with certain high-risk conditions like preeclampsia or multiple pregnancies. However, not all high-risk pregnancies require bed rest. Your doctor will determine if it’s necessary based on your specific condition.
This depends on your specific condition and how well it is managed. If your pregnancy requires frequent medical attention, bed rest, or limits on activity, your doctor may advise reducing work hours or taking time off. Always follow your doctor’s recommendations.
