When I got pregnant again (about 9 months later) I started Lovenox at about 8 weeks. I now have two beautiful children. I was told the aspirin/blood thinner therapy was optional but I wasn't willing to risk it. The shots quickly worked into my routine and only posed a problem closer to delivery when I had to switch from the Lovenox (which is nonreversable to Herperin). We're currently debating another child so I've started taking baby aspirin again "just in case".
