I have MTHFR and Factor V Leiden. I had 2 healthy pgs, a m/c, another healthy pg, another m/c, and now I'm 19w5d pg again. My clotting disorders were discovered after my 2nd m/c and shortly after my sister (same dr) developed a blood clot in her lung from a hospitalization. Are you on low-dose aspirin or another blood thinner? My dr put me on low-dose aspirin and Metanx (a specially metabolized form of folic acid and 2 other B vitamins). MTHFR can cause a clot to form at any time, but I don't know of any particular diificulty during the 5th or 6th months. Best wishes.
Thanks for your response Glenda306. My sister and dad have Factor 11 which is where their blood doesn't clot. I was negative for that. I see a specialist tomorrow so he may put me on aspirin at that time. I have been taking a prenatal vitamin and folic acid daily.
my kids r 14& 8 but I lost my baby because of MTHFR I was not diagnosed untill after my m/c. I tried getting pregnant 4 ,many years after my daughter, I had a total 8 m/c they were very very early thank God ,my son was the hardest 2 go through ,I saw his, little heartbeat , so if this helps one family 2 not go through a loss than i want 2 let people know, I was put on heprin but i RECOMEND LOVANOX ,HEPRIN IS 2 SHOTS A DAY LOVANOX IS ONLY ONE. BY THE GRACE OF GOD ,I carried my son he was early but very healthy. I was rhneg, so that was another reason 4 the bloodthinners. u can get tested by a hematologist,they will recomend the right treatment . u can have 1gene passed down by 1 parent or u can have 2 were both parents pass down the gene 2 u. it's really good 2 go to a specialist so they can recommend the right treatment 4 u & your baby.my prayers r with u.
