Hi BeHappyEveryOne,

I have had two miscarriages (one early, one late) which my OB thinks are due to a blood clotting disorder. I am now 5 months pregnant. I have no other children.

I took aspirin before pregnancy and I take aspirin now, I had to take Clexane from 5 weeks to 12 weeks because aspirin can affect the development of baby's heart (most of which takes place in those weeks). Because it is a low molecular weight heparin it is thought not to affect baby's heart, it also has a shorter half life than aspirin.

Are you taking Clexane to treat the lupus? Or to manage during pregnancy?
