miscarries
Loses the pregnancy
Miscarries is the third-person singular of miscarry.
Most commonly, it describes a pregnancy ending spontaneously before the fetus can survive: She miscarried in her first trimester.
More broadly, a plan or undertaking miscarries when it fails or goes wrong: If the scheme miscarries, we'll need a backup.
