My doctor also prescribed baby asprin.  He didn't really explain why. But I'm pregnant now, so I guess it works.

I had two miscarriages and was referred to a specialist. In testing done it was found I have a blood clotting issue - and baby aspirin was prescribed. I'm currently 19 weeks pregnant and doing just fine.  I can say that I had no idea there was any concern with my blood - I'd lived 31 1/2 years just fine - no problems - donating blood regularly and nothing ever came up that would indicate a problem.  It was in the chrosome analysis done where there was something found. My doctor really didn't do a good job explaining what it is -but - all I know is the treatment is to take baby aspirin and it's working thus far for me. Good luck.

Kelly is right. Baby aspirin will also help "thin" the blood if you're prone to blood clots, which can also cause miscarriages. I've had two miscarriages, and I take it every day now together with a prenatal vitamin.

I'm very sorry for what you're going thru as well...I had a M/C of twins in Dec. and cannot imagine going thru it more than once.....
Someone had posted something on here in the past week about taking baby aspirin and that it helps with blood flow to the uterus and eventually a placenta....I started taking it after reading the post......I have no definitive info. on it, but have definately at least heard of it.

Im really sorry for what your going through, I can only imagine how hard it has been. As far as the baby aspirin, I have no idea, never even heard of it.

A miscarriage specialist may be a bit more realistic and helpful, although they are called usually genetisists(sp). You can have your genetic profile looked at to see if you might carry anything that may cause a chromosomal error when the fetus is developing, which a chromosomal error is usually the reason for 9 out of 10 miscarriages.

You can also see a fertility specialist, I dont know much about them, but im sure if you call around or even ask around here on the boards you can get more info.

I have done genetic counseling for every pregnancy after my first child. She was born at 29 weeks, and died shortly after birth due to a genetic disorder, which is completely hidden and undiagnosed until birth.

So there are those 2 things I know of that could possibly help you out. I hope all goes well and I wish you the best of luck.
