| Bed rest during pregnancy : Your health care provider may recommend you to stay in bed for a few days or weeks. This is called bed rest. Bed rest used to be recommended routinely for a number of pregnancy problems, including: - High blood pressure - Premature or preterm changes in the cervix - Problems with the placenta - Vaginal bleeding - Early labor - More than one baby - History of early birth or - miscarriage - Baby is not growing well - Baby has medical problems Now, though, most providers have stopped recommending bed rest except in rare circumstances. The reason is that studies have not shown that being on bed rest can prevent preterm birth or other pregnancy problems. And some complications may also occur due to bed rest. If your provider recommends bed rest, discuss the pros and cons carefully with them. | |
