We Offer Legal Services for Medically Injured Mothers
Complications during pregnancy range past birth injuries in that they can affect both the mother and the child. In some cases, these pregnancy complications are caused by health issues that were present before the woman became pregnant. In other cases, the pregnancy complications arose when the woman became pregnant. With this in mind, any woman who is considering becoming pregnant should be aware of their health.
For example, if they are overweight, suffer from diabetes, or have high blood pressure, these complications could lead to other problems once they are pregnant. Some symptoms of pregnancy are normal, such as tiredness, nausea, implantation bleeding, or bloating. Other symptoms, however, are more severe and could lead to serious injury or death on the part of the mother or unborn child. Doctors are well aware of all of the complications which can arise and it is their responsibly to detect and treat these issues. If they do not, it could result in a medical malpractice case.
