Planning for conception after stillbirth
I had a preterm still birth at 27th week of my pregnancy (12th September 2020) due to pregnancy induced hypertension (preeclampsia). This was my first pregnancy.
I need to know when can i plan next for conception or how much gap or time lapse should be there to plan for next pregnancy in order to have healthy pregnancy.
I had pregnancy induced hypertension from 22nd week of my pregnancy before that my b.p never shooted. Are there any chances of preeclampsia occuring again in my next pregnancy? And how can i prevent.
