One day, while talking to my doctor, I was told that there were different pregnancy types and that came as a surprise to me. Most of us are not aware of this truth. Please read on as I am sure this information is useful since certain types require special attention.

Early Pregnancy- The period of the first few weeks after conception is called as early pregnancy. During this phase, you will experience different types of changes in your body- both physically and emotionally such as nausea, dizziness, constipation, heartburn, mood swings, nasal problem and vaginal discharge.

First Pregnancy- The most special moment of your life just like almost every other woman is when you conceive for the first time. At this stage, you must keep yourself aware about various aspects of this new phase of your life such as pregnancy symptoms, child development, diet and routine check, to name a few.

Second Pregnancy- This can be equally exciting as the first one and the great news is that you are a lot more experienced in this stage. However, do not expect the symptoms to be same as the first one. To add to your relief, in this case, the labor is shorter than the first one's.

Teenage Pregnancy- Soon as a woman attains puberty, her body is evolved to bear a child. However, this is not the right time for a woman to get pregnant. Your body is not developed completely to take care of a child. This pregnancy type should be avoided.

Twin Pregnancy- This type comes as a blessing to some of the woman because the labor pain is just borne once and not twice. It mainly happens due to genetic reasons, late pregnancy, or fertility treatments, all of which increases the chances of multiple embryos. The only disadvantage here is that the babies may be born prematurely.

Lupus Pregnancy- Now to one of the serious kinds, which you need to be really careful about. This type is actually an autoimmune disease which affects a young woman in her reproductive age. It causes the immune system to attack the healthy tissue and can affect both mother and fetus. Around 10 percent of such pregnancies lead to abortion.

Tubal Pregnancy- During a normal pregnancy, the fetus grows inside the uterus. In this case, the baby attaches itself to the fallopian tube and grows outside the womb. This can be risky to both the mother and the child. In certain cases, the child growth happened in the abdomen, ovaries or the cervix.

Ectopic Pregnancy- Like in a tubal pregnancy, in this case, the ovum does reach the uterus but gets implanted in other parts such as the abdominal cavity or pelvic area or on the neck of the uterus. In such a case, there is no chance of survival of fetus and ultimately leads to miscarriage.

High risk Pregnancy- This types are mainly pre-term birth and placenta abruption. Babies born prior to 37 weeks are considered to be Pre-term and often that leads to infant death. Due to advancement in medical science, many such children are saved from infant mortality. In case of the second type, the placenta gets damaged and leads to large blood clots behind. You need to be very careful at this stage because it affects both the mother and the child. Regular ultrasounds are required to monitor any kind of threat to mother and child.
