Here is a list of pregnancy complications:

• Gestational diabetes

Gestational diabetes is a temporary rise in blood sugar levels during the pregnancy period. The risks of pregnancy complications include infants born with excessive weight, breathing problems, low blood sugar, type 2 diabetes, and stillbirth or preterm birth.

• Pre-eclampsia

It is a pregnancy situation characterized by an unexpected growth in blood pressure and swelling of the legs, feet, and hands of the pregnant woman. Pre-eclampsia is caused by placenta improper growth.

• Fetal problems

Sometimes, improper nutrition or unhealthy habits may cause the fetus to develop congenital disabilities, like heart, brain, or spine disease, which may be revealed later in the pregnancy stage or after birth.

• Placenta previa

Placenta previa occurs when the placenta begins to develop within the lower uterus and covers the outlet of the cervix, which could cause pregnancy complications for the duration of the following birth.

• Hyperemesis gravidarum

Hyperemesis gravidarum is a pregnancy complication that refers to intractable vomiting, which leads to weight loss and volume depletion. It might cause ketonuria or ketonemia, and it is caused due to increasing levels of a harmone called human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG).

• Ectopic pregnancy

Ectopic pregnancy complication occurs when a fertilized egg gets implanted outside the uterus, usually in the fallopian tubes. The pregnancy is not viable, and the risk of pregnancy complications leads to terminating the pregnancy.
