Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Thanks. No I haven't been checked. I had 8 miscarraiges in the first trimester the longest held was 9 weeks. They thought that maybe my body was fighting the fetus so that is why I thought to go the asprin and either the Lovenox or Heprin shots. I will talk to the fertility dr. about this but wanted to get started on the folic acid and asprin asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 I take one baby aspirin each day and 4 mg of folic acid each day. I had 6 miscarriages before having my son 4+ years ago. Were you ever checked for Antiphospholipid disorder as a cause of your miscarriages? Chrystal Wife to Jace - together 6 Years! Happy Mommy to - 4 Years Old! Jonas Due July 28, 2004!

Said to start taking folic acid and because of my multiple miscarriges she said to take childrens asprin. I will be seeing a fertility specialist but my appointment isn't till Aug 12. My question to those who take the asprin, how much do you take? The box says 4-8 tablets a day. -- Joy open RNY 6/5/03 290/180 Children are a blessing, and a gift from the Lord. -Psalm 127:3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 I actually have 2 blood conditions that cause miscarriages - Hyperhomocystein anemia and an Antiphospholipid disorder. The folic acid, b12, b6 and lovenox & now heparin have given me a chance at a family. Find a good hematologist because mine saved my life and gave me hope. He worked hand in hand with the ob who delivered my son and has kept in touch throughout this pregnancy. Chrystal Wife to Jace - together 6 Years! Happy Mommy to - 4 Years Old!
