doing well, Lovenox seems to be working...

I just want to let you all know that I am anbout 5 1/2 months pregnant.  I wrote on this in the beginning on my pregnancy, saying the sac may be empty, and having had 2 D & C's post missed abortion (hate that term).

Lovenox injections seem to be helping, maybe even the progesterone in the 1st trimester.
If any of you have had even 1 miscarriage, get the bood test to see if you have blood clotting.  I waited til I had to lose 2 pregnancies (everything happens for a reason, right!).  I HIGHLY suggest all women looking to get pregnant get this blood test.  I had 2 healthy pregnancies at age 24 and 26, at 28 I lost 2, because of blood clotting I did not know I had.

I found out a few girls I know took this test, and it came up positive, then went on blood thinners for their next pregnancy, to have a full term baby!

Thanks for your post.  My sis has 2 girls and then went on to have a molar pregnancy back in Oct and then had another m/c in April losing the baby at 11 weeks.  Sure enough they tested her blood and she was positive.  So she is now ttc and is on baby aspirin daily and she may have to go on heparin shots once daily once she gets a positive pregnancy test.  She is very fertile so hopefully all she needs is to be on an anticoagulant to give her a successful pregancy.  I will be sure to let her know of your post.  Thanks.
