My DS was born at 36 weeks weighing 1.66kg!

I am now pg again and was put on 100mg of Asprin pre pregnancy and will stay on that until around 36/37 weeks. Both my GP and OB strongly recommended it.

I am having my 28 week growth scan in three weeks time and this will be the first indicator but might be too early to tell if this one is going to be ok or not. Last time I had scans weekly from 28 weeks and delivered at 36 as DS had LOST wt for two weeks straight and was struggling. So my OB thinks if we see some indications at 28 weeks we will do the same with scans this time, if all looks ok we will probably wait until 32 weeks to do another scan.

At my 20 week scan they had a good look for flow from me to bub and were pleased with the velocity of flow - a good indicator but not a guarantee that all will be well. We will just have to wait and see!

I just buy the asprin at the supermarket - you dont need a script and it also helps with avoiding some miscarriages as often the cause is clotting or poor blood flow so I would go ahead and get onto it once you decide to TTC. Asprin only takes 5 days to become effective.

Good luck!
