Mumps can sometimes cause a miscarriage in early pregnancy. This needs to be discussed with her doctor/midwife.

Thanks for your answer, I discussed that, there is no sign of miscarriage, however I just want to know if I go with preganancy, will there be complications to child and mother, doctor here are in doubt..
