Well, much to my surprise I took a pg test over the weekend and it came up positive. Luckily, I already had an appt. with a perinatologist for a consult. I explained that I just had our third m/c at the end of Aug. and that I was pg again. He was very understanding. He said I had three options 1. I could start heparin and baby aspirin 2. I could take some more tests to check for blood clotting disorders ( I guess there are a few more I haven't been checked for) and then I they were +ive I could start heparin and aspirin 3. Do nothing. He said he was not a big fan of option #3. He thinks after 2 live births and now 3 m/c in a row one at 11 weeks, 19 weeks, 10 1/2 weeks after normal ultrasounds of the babies, that we should really consider taking the Heparin because at this point it couldn't hurt. I went ahead and went to the lab and took the tests. I started baby aspirin last night. He said I would start the Heparin once the pregnancy was established. I supposed to call him next Wed. to get the results and then decide if we are going to start heparin. Any advice would be great! I am really concerned about how the Heparin will affect my body long term and short term. I just want to thank you in advance for all your support and advice that you have given me throughout the year.
