Understanding High-Risk Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but for some women, it comes with additional health considerations that require closer monitoring. This is what doctors refer to as a "high-risk pregnancy" - and with the right care, most high-risk pregnancies result in healthy outcomes for both mother and baby.

What Makes a Pregnancy "High-Risk"? A pregnancy may be classified as high-risk due to factors such as:

• Maternal age (below 18 or above 35)
• Pre-existing conditions like diabetes, thyroid disorders, or high blood pressure
• Multiple pregnancies (twins or more)
• History of pregnancy complications or pregnancy loss
• Complications that develop during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes or preeclampsia

Why Specialised Care Matters: At Unity Multi Speciality Hospital, Dr. Nisha Singh and her team provide close, specialised monitoring for high-risk pregnancies, including regular colour doppler ultrasounds, timely screenings, and a personalised delivery plan tailored to each mother's condition.

Tips for Managing a High-Risk Pregnancy:

1. Attend all scheduled prenatal appointments — don't skip check-ups
2. Monitor blood pressure and blood sugar as advised
3. Maintain a balanced, doctor-recommended diet
4. Avoid stress and prioritise rest
5. Report any unusual symptoms (bleeding, severe headaches, reduced foetal movement) immediately
