Baby Aspirin

I started taking baby aspirin halfway through my last cycle. Faith I believe mentioned it to me and I looked it up and saw that it's very beneficial for not only bloodflow to the uterus and ovaries but great for cardiovascular health too.

What I don't understand is whether I take it all through my cycle or take it up until ovulation? Anyone know? I've read that you can take it up until the end of your first trimester so I should keep taking it well after I find out I'm pregnant? Frig...I hope this is my time to shine....this 2ww is gonna be harsh!! I'm almost 4 days into it!! LOL

I found this on amazingpregnancy.com. They posted: A low does of aspirin such as found in baby aspirin may be beneficial to fertility. It is thought that aspirin can help the uterine lining by helping with the blood flow to the ovaries and uterus. Low dose aspirin treatment also significantly improves ovarian response. Aspirin is thought to help with In Vitro Fertilization, particularly in women who have previously had a miscarriage. Studies show that it may reduce the risk of miscarriage as much as 50% when used with heparin or immunoglobulin.

You can take any brand of aspirin, as long as it has no more than 81 mg per tablet. This will be in either the chewable baby aspirins, or in the adult low dose aspirin. The tablets are very small and easy to swallow. You only need to take one tiny pill per day to reap the benefits. Taking one low dose or baby aspirin (81 mg) a day is a good thing to add to the supplements you are already taking. If you are suspicious about miscarriages, or have suffered from them in the past, ask your doctor about aspirin. It could very well be what the doctor orders. When you are trying to conceive, it is important not to take any type of drug, even an over the counter one, without talking to your doctor first.


Some posted on yahoo answers that they take 75mg once a day and she was told to stop taking it at 36 weeks. She said she was told to take it after 5 miscarriages and 2 stillbirths and she also has 6 boys.

Hope that helps...
