Baby Aspirin
I saw on another website that a lady who'd suffered a few miscarriages was advised by a doctor to take progesterone and baby aspirin. She was advised to take 75mg of baby aspirin from the time she got A BFP until 36 weeks pregnant. She was currently saying she is now at 14 weeks and going well. Isn't it dangerous to take baby aspirin for that long?

Yes and no. IF a person is having miscarriages due to blood clotting too easily, which is the cause of some repeat miscarriages (a few different genetic conditions cause this), then that could be exactly the right thing for them to do. But that is NOT the cause of most miscarriages and thus it is not something that the average person needs to do or should do (even after one miscarriage.) In fact, for some of us, it could be FATAL to do that. I would probably bleed to death if I took that much aspirin because I have very "unclotty" blood.

Oh and people with the clotting conditions do need to take aspirin until 36 weeks and then come off it because they're more prone to clots throughout pregnancy. They can't take it ALL thru pregnancy because you need yours and your baby's blood to be able to clot well for birth and recovery.

I have to take a low dose of aspirin daily from bfp to 36 weeks to prevent preterm pre-eclampsia which I had at 30 weeks with ds1. It has worked well - both ds2&3 arrived on or after their due dates.

that aspirin has been useful for preventing Pre-e for some people.
That having been said if you have never had Pre-E before, and are with the same partner, the odds are good that you do not need aspirin and shouldn't take it just to prevent pre-e if you have never had it before. The majority of cases of Pre-E are in people who had it before, people on first pregnancy, and people who have a different partner and are on their first baby with a new partner. Thus I do not think anyone who has never had it, is not on first pregancy and has same partner should take it preventatively because the odds that they will get pre-e are not super high!!!

Oh no, totally agree Atomic. I should've clarified in my post. The research has only proved that aspirin is effective for those who have had PET before 34 weeks in subsequent pregnancies. I know you're making it clear for those following the thread though. Thank you

Yes I was just clarifying and should have to start with (instead of just mentioning the clotting disorders) - there are def. some people who can benefit from aspirin during pregnancy and people who had pre-e are among them. I just didn't want anyone to read that and think "oh gosh what if I get pre-eclampsia, maybe I should take aspirin just in case" but unless you have had it before, there's no need to for most people, especially if it isn't their first baby with a new partner.

Thanks for clarifying ladies. Considering I was a 'bleeder' for that miscarriage I certainly will stay clear of the baby aspirin...and the cranberry like you'd already said Atomic. I know in hospital after my D & C the nurses were having to take repeat blood tests because my blood samples were clotting but I think they said that was just because I had lost so much.

The doctors and nurses are not always up to speed on the effects the supplements can have. But many of the herbs are very blood thinning and will make you bleed very heavily if you have some sort of mishap like an accident or a loss while taking them. Cranberry is quite bad for that.

Thanks Atomic. I'm soooo glad I know that now. Probably explained the predicament I ended up in the last time so will definitely not be using that again that's for sure.
