it is called an incompetent cervix, it can be caused by damaged during a previous birth or a previous surgury on the cervix. and from the cervix bein open it can cause a miscarriage, so that wouldn't happen you would need a cerclage which is a procedure in which the doctor will sew the cervix closed with sutures to reinforce the cervix and prevent it from dilating to early... hopefully this would help you because it sure helped me
No, exercise is very good for you during pregnancy and does not cause miscarriage. Some say it does but that is a myth.
If your hormone level drops, it is the primary reason that causes a miscarriage.

Hormone levels during pregnancy are crucial, because they influence the growth and development of your baby.

ok, i can answer my own question now. the answer may help someone else. My daughter was pregnant and passed tissue we thought was a miscarriage. ultrasounds showed that her uterus had shed lining and become thin again. we were told by the doctor it was a miscarriage. she had to return in two weeks to get her pregnancy hormone level checked until it returned to 0. well her level had gone up from 562 to 8000 after the suspected miscarriage. had to go back to the doctor immediately and another ultrasound showed an etopic pregnancy. had to do surgery immediately.
Unfortunately there are several reasons for cramping; some are ok and some are not so good. It could be implantation bleeding, growing of the uterus, gas, constipation, miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, pre-term labor and a few other causes. If you are too concerned, just call your doctor.
YES!!!Smoking and drinking are two of the leading causes for birth defects and brain deformity and that's if they don't cause a miscarriage and outright kill the child during pregnancy.
