Pregnancy Q & A

What are common complications during pregnancy? Book Free Consultation

Some women go through pregnancy entirely seamlessly. But most women experience abnormal pains, cramps, or other issues that affect them regularly. Pregnancy is known for commonly causing:

• Agonizing heartburn
• Frequent headaches
• Severe swelling (edema)
• Rashes or stretch marks
• Strange aches and pains
• Persistent nausea and vomiting

You may also experience abnormal spotting or membrane ruptures that could increase your risk of miscarriage. Because of these types of problems, it’s important to have a health provider you can trust to provide care and treatment throughout your pregnancy (and beyond). 

When should I get help for pregnancy problems?

The team at PUSH San Diego specializes in alternative care for pregnancy, labor and birth, and postpartum wellness. They can partner with your physician to ensure you’re receiving the care you need to have a healthy pregnancy. You should come in to PUSH San Diego for a pregnancy evaluation if:
