Well, here is an update on my situation. All the tests on me and the baby have come back normal. I asked my peri if he thought that the umbilical cord had anything to do with the baby's death and he said it was like the chicken and the egg story. Which came first the placental/cord abnormaility which could have caused the fetal demise or the fetal demise that caused the placenta and cord's abnormality? If I become pregnant again he said that he doesn't see a need to prescribe heparin shots. I asked if I could take baby aspirin and he was fine with that. He is doing a few more tests on me, Factor II and Factor V. Is the Factor II test checking for a clotting disorder? We were given the go ahead for ttc by my midwife yesterday at my followup. So wish us luck.
