clexane during pregnancy

[steph26]

im so sorry to hear that, how are you coping? Like you, i started clexane at 4 wks, i am now nearly 22 weeks and have the very important scan on wednesday. I'm so scared they are going to tell me the baby has IUGR again . You have to stay positive, hard i know. Let me know how you get on

Good luck for your scan steph, im sure all will be just fine. Please let me know how you go, I'll send positive vibes all day wednesday to you. Have you had any scans during your pegnancy to ease your mind? Ive orginised an extra one at 17.5 weeks before the 20 week scan just to try and sleep better.
Ive read so many good stories of the same thing happening to other pregnant girls and then taking clexane and having healthy baby so keep that in mind. Im thinking of you and know how you feel.

Hiya, thank you for the vibes! We last had a scan at 12 weeks and things were fine then. I also have to have my bp checked every week and the doctor measured my tummy and had a feel and said that it feels like a 20 week baby in there and that was at 19 weeks. Apparantly that is a good indicator of growth.

That sounds fantastic! Im sure tomorrow's scan will confirm all that the doctos said. And then you will be able to enjoy the beautiful images of your bub. Still sending the good vibes to you

hiya, just got back from hospital, its a girl! everything is fine apart from the fact that im at high risk of getting pre-eclampsia. They did a test to measure my blood resistance and its high. if its not one thing its another. What happened to your previous baby? Was it growth restriction? Thinking of you

Hey thats great news, a little girl! Hope you can rest easy now. Dont worry about the pre-eclampsia im sure they will monitor your blood pleasure or you could get a home kit and do it yourself. Im sure you know all the signs to look for, like me youve most likley become an expert in your condition with all the reserch. I got some results back from my blood specialist who ive been told is the best in the state for my type of thing( he works out of monash clayton), all looks good just really iron difficiant and have to up my vitamins and meat. Sabrina was over three weeks under growth and just getting smaller, blood clots in the placenta caused this. Ive got ythat sticky blood syndrome, do you have a similar condition?
