If your doctor, during that second appointment, did not seem concerned about the levels of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) -- the pregnancy hormone measured by both blood and urine pregnancy tests -- you should feel confident that your risk of miscarriage is no greater than that of the general population.

Rest, nutrition, vitamins and adequate exercise are the best and only things you can do at this time in the pregnancy to increase your chances of a healthy baby. A positive attitude always helps, too!
