| | Miscarriage |
 | | Although it may be psychologically difficult, if a woman has a miscarriage at home she should try to collect any material she passes in a clean container for analysis in a laboratory. | | | If a woman experiences any sign of impending miscarriage she should see a doctor or nurse for a pelvic examination to check if the cervix is closed, as it should be. | | | Feelings of grief and loss after a miscarriage are common. |

| | Understanding miscarriage |
| | In certain situations, such as if you had a second trimester miscarriage or an early third trimester premature birth from a weakened cervix, you might be referred to a high-risk specialist after a single loss so she can carefully manage your pregnancy. | | | Every little ache or pain I think is the beginning of a miscarriage. | | | Since most healthcare practitioners won't do a full-scale workup after a single miscarriage, it's usually impossible to tell why the pregnancy was lost. |

| | Many doctors disagree with this testing and treatment, saying that research is lacking to prove that it is helpful Many feel that doctors should not attempt such expensive testing and treatment until further research proves that this therapy is helpful. | | | Comments such as "the baby would have been deformed anyway," "it must be punishment for something you did wrong," or even "you can always have more" can be extremely painful to a woman and her partner. | | | The theory is that the mother's body 'rejects' the fetus in a way similar to how a transplant patient might reject a new organ. |

| | Coping with a miscarriage |
| | Though you, of course, will probably be distraught, your doctor or midwife may simply be sympathetic or even matter-of-fact; she sees miscarriages all the time. | | | You may be surprised by how many stories of miscarriage you'll hear from mothers, cousins, co-workers, and friends that you'd never known about. | | | You can expect her to spend some time talking with you about your medical history and perhaps to perform a DandC or DandE (dilation and curettage, or extraction, depending on the stage of miscarriage) to cleanse the uterus of any remains of the pregnancy. |
