hello,
I am sorry to note about the problem of your first baby after all the expectations.
You cannot avoid this by yourself in the next pregnancy but what you can do is to go to a good obstetrician and have serial ultrasounds done at a good centre where this can be diagnosed in the intra uterine period and also delivery in a good tertiary centre where all facilities are availble. Wishing you all the best
