    ramandeep,

    hello i just found this site and people who have the same thing as i do and am very excited to know more people with this. I have a 4 year boy and afetr him i had 2 miscarriages in one year i was tested and they told me i have lupus anticoagulent, he put me on 4mg of Folic Acid and said that if i was to get pregant again that I would have to take a shot through my whole pregnancy and 6 weeks after the baby was born and I am so scared of needles and so scared, we want a baby so bad.

    Hi there everyone. I am new to this site and my heart goes out to you all. I am 38yrs, have a beautiful little girl who is 3yrs old. My husband and I desperately want more children and I have had 3 m/c's before finding out that I also have anti-coagulant lupus. My specialist put me on aspirin and 5mg folic acid which I take religiously, however I had another m/c in August. My specialist said she will put me on heparin when I fall pregnant again, am not sure of the dose or for how long. Although the sadness and loss of the other pregnancies are still with me and am really positive and upbeat that next time will be successful. Will keep posting and am glad to be able to share my experience with other women going through the same thing.
