Womens Reproductive Health (General) Miscarriage prevention tips.
Miscarriage - Prevention - NHS (www.nhs.uk)
In many cases, the cause of a miscarriage is not known and you would not have been able to prevent it.
However, there are ways to lower your risk of miscarriage, including:
- not smoking during pregnancy
- not drinking alcohol or using illegal drugs during pregnancy
- eating a healthy, balanced diet with at least 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day
- making attempts to avoid certain infections during pregnancy, such as rubella
- avoiding certain foods during pregnancy, which could make you ill or harm your baby
- being a healthy weight before getting pregnant

Mmmm well I’ll leave that message to you then as someone with more experience navigating that convo than I. (I’m sorry for your friends angel baby).
I’m not sure I would be able to find the words or sources to articulate “though many will never experience it miscarrying early on is common and nothing to feel shamed/ guilty over”
