Hello,

Must say I just love this site!! I am 23 weeks pregnant with my first baby and finding BellyBelly VERY helpful, big thank you to all involved.

I am posting for a friend who cannot join just yet as only 11 weeks pregnant and doesn't want to join this site until next week when the people will find out shes pregnant.

This is my third pregnancy which will be my third c-section. I am only 11 weeks pregnant and just received a phone call last night at 17:50pm to say that I must start taking aspirin from now until the end of my pregnancy but no one can tell me why? I called the midwife this morning to ask why and she doesn't know, she said it was the consultant who has requested it and thinks it may be due to being my 3rd c-section. As I don't see the obstetrician for another 5 weeks yet I am unsure what to do about this? Please could anyone advise me if they had to take aspirin due to 3rd c-section? I have no other medical problems, no high blood pressure, no pre-eclampsia so I am very confused ...is this normal for a 3rd c-section? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
