A pregnancy is considered high-risk when the mother’s health or the baby’s development may be affected due to pre-existing or newly developed medical conditions. These factors can also increase the chances of premature delivery.
You may be at risk if you are under 17 or over 35 years of age. Other common causes include:
Obesity
Diabetes
Heart disease
Multiple pregnancy (twins or more)
Pre-eclampsia
High blood pressure
History of pregnancy complications
