Well... Im not sure for most but for me i have many medical problems and my husband and i had been tryin for 2 years and the doc who told me to come in told me that this pregnancy is high risk and i can only see her. I cant just go to any docter or hospital most the time im assuming they tell you like mine did
I think I'm high risk once I get to 28 weeks they have to monitor the baby once a week. This is my third pregnancy. My last pregnancy my son was a still born
@MCurry20 Its crazy. I spent two weeks in the hospital and to b honest I should still b in there. This started when I was 26 weeks ( I am 30 weeks now) the doctors highly recommended that I stay in the hospital til delivery but I have two other kids at home so after they got my blood pressure regulated with a high dose of medication I was able to convince them to put me on extensive outpatient. Not only do I have to faithfully take my medicine 3 times a day and closely monitor my blood pressure at home, I now have to go to the hospital 3 times a week. Each time I go I have to have blood work, non stress tests, and biophysical ultrasounds. I also have to consult with the maternal fetal medicine high risk team each time as well. Also they r taking him at 34 weeks, however if my blood pressure gets out of control again they will have to induce me sooner. Its all very stressful and I can't wait til its all over.
I'm extremely high risk cause I get preeclampsia. I got it with my son at 7 months he only weight 2 pounds 1.6 oz 14in he is now 8. & my daugther at 8 months she weight 3 pounds 10 oz 16in she now 6. So I'm scared out my mind to get it.
Im high risk. I have factor v lieden and mthfr. Both are bloodclotting disorders and mthfr creates a vitamin problem in your blood were it cant properly obsorb folic acid and vitamins b12 and b6. I have to take blood thiners and a lot of vitamins. I had 2 misscariages last year due to them. 9 weeks pregnant now.
@Mskrystal what blood disease. One.of my issues is that along with me being rh my husband has a blood disease referred to as antigen m and they are always checking the titers cuz if it gets above 12 the baby has to come out no matter how far i am
@Itsagirl how far are you because they said the same thing to me about the baby not forming and they set my due date back two weeks and suddenly my baby did like a superhuman and grew super fast hhaha
I am extremely high risk as I have been diagnosed with Polyhydramnios which is only seen in about 2% of pregnancies. It normally doesn't happen until after 30 weeks, but I'm only about 28 weeks. The amount of amniotic fluid I carry is the equivilant to a woman who is about 38 weeks pregnant and ready to give birth. Basically, my water can break at any time. I'm at high risk for a prolapsed cord and placental abruption, and hemmoraging during labor. Plus I probably have GD. This is my 2nd baby and baby #1 had no issues. Bedrest sucks!!
24 weeks n blood levels make due date accurate n well I only had sex three times in 2 days I'm army was only at home for two weeks in Sep but I'm in some pain today a lot actually might go to hp lower back pains n cramping

I also have tachycardia, since I can remember.
And you would know if you're high risk. Either due to older age or a medical reason.
