PB - Hun, after my first two m/c's I fell pg again, and I was so worried about losing another bub, that I went and saw my GP, who put me through to this OB. He had me on the Baby aspirin, and at one point in the visit was going to have me on injections daily. Yet he decided to have me just take the baby aspirin. I too was already taking fefol and elevit, which I believe also helped even to this day. When I fell pg with my little V, my GP did some more BT's as I had 2 m/c previously to V, which gave me the reason for needing the aspirin. I am ana positive. They are not sure what is causing it as there can be many reasons, such as Lupus. So maybe getting a BT done to check you for any type of blood clotting would be something to check, also maybe also a BT to check your thyroid function.
With my current pgcy, I have now GD which I am soon to start insulin and also an underactive thyroid, which I am taking meds for. They were considering again, as they did with V me having clexane injections instead of the aspirin, but have stayed with the aspirin. Has me worried abit as bub is still on the small side.
I am under high risk and have been since my first 2 m/c's, and have been seeing the hospital almost every week since approx the 8wk mark of pgcy. All different Dr's, such as Physcian and endocronologist, OB's and feto maternal unit for u/s and now dieticians. Yet if this brings my bub to me safe and sound then thats what I have to do.
This is just what I have done, but if it helps you make your decision then Im glad I could help. What I have noticed is that as we get older our bodies need more help to sustain our pgcy's. Mine has just done a complete turn around this time bringing in the GD and thyroid, just for fun. I have never had trouble with these with any of my pgcy's before.
I am sending lots of sticky vibes your way, so that you can bring your bub home to stay. hugs
