Anyone tried baby aspirin?

keepingfaith · Jan 18th, 2009, 19:59 PM

I think I am ready to try again after 2 miscarriages. I have read alot about baby aspirin online and was wondering if anyone has tried it or have any advice to offer on the subject. My dr. does not want me to take it, but I just feel like that will offer me some more hope.

Hi Keepingthefaith,

After my chemical pregnancy early november I started taking it. bought it from the chemist 75mg, my gyn was happy for me to continue with it.

Hi

I started taking it when we started ttc after miscarriage #2. I spoke to my GP who said not to bother with it just yet but I decided that I would give it a try.

I stopped taking it at 12 weeks. I think if you continue using past this you need to inform your midwife/GP as they need to be aware (aspirin can cause more bleeding).

Hope this helps

xx

That is weird i have been wondering about that to , i am gonna wait until i get my bfp then ask my dr , from what i have read it may not help but if it cant harm either then it has to be worth a go. I know you do have to bee careful if you are taking certain medicines or have certain conditions.
did your dr give you a reason for saying no?

its supposed to help if you have sticky blood cos it stops oxygen getting to the placenta. Well thats what i understand anyway.

I'm interested in the response from this too. Obviously anything to possibly help is better than nothing.

i stick by what i always say.. if you feel you need it go see your dr because you should never take it and not tell the dr.. it may cause problems.. theres no proven fact it acctually does any good.

hello all, i have had 2 m/c and the nurses at the epu said that next time you get pregnant we will put you on 75mg of baby asprin, so i spoke to my doctor about it and he said that theres no reason why i couldnt start taking it now, and that it wouldnt do any harm, so i have been taking 1 a day for a few weeks now, all he said was that it may make you have a off stomach and heavier periods, but i have been great, i hope it does help as where trying again now, so fingers crossed xxx Goodluck to you all

I think i might wait for another BFP and really push my dr. to give me reasons why i should and shouldn't give this a try. I just don't want to go through this again....

I'll keep you all posted.
