Anyone else test positive for acquired blood clotting disorder?

Question

I tested positive for Anticardiolipin antibodies after my missed miscarriage in Jan. Pregnant again and on baby aspirin, but wanted to know if anyone else tested positive and had a healthy pregnancy. I'm having trouble enjoying this pregnancy because I'm so worried

Answer

I lost my first daughter at 21wks pregnant 2006, I found out I have blood clotting condition called Thrombophilia, it's inherited and my sister has it after she lost her son at 20wks, it's causes blood clots of the placenta and improper formation of the placenta in pregnancy, it can cause miscarriage, birth defects and prem birth.

A year later I feel pregnant with my 2 nd daughter, i was high risk pregnancy, I was put on baby aspirin 75mg daily, had extra scans and looked after, my daughter was growth restricted due to my placenta clotting and the umbilical cord notching, she was safely born at 35wks by emergency c section, weight 4lb 5wks early. Few wks later she was very ill , we took her to the hospital and we found she had 2 holes in her heart.  She was monitored and lucky enough they closed on their own and she's going to 8 this year, she my miracle baby.

I came to realise my first daughter was given to me to let me know I had this condition and gave me her sister. I will never for get my Kayleigh-Anne😇.

I am now 14wks pregnant and I'm on aspirin, I had the downs test and blood test done last wk, I had a call from the hospital yesterday, they adv my downs test was 1-1200 so that's good. But my other blood test have come back abnormal, she adv me its to do with growth and placenta, I've got to go and see them today.

I so worried and upset, I keep thinking it's happening again I'm going to lose this one, I hate my body, it' doesn't work correctly, why can't I have a normal healthy pregnancy.
😢😢

Answer

I have a blood clotting disorder called prothrombin gene mutation I am on daily lovenox injections I have a healthy 2 year old and now pregnant with baby number 2 :) good luck

Answer

I tested positive for two MTHFR mutations which causes me to be more prone to blood clotting. I had two prior miscarriages before testing was done. Was on lovenox and baby aspirin up until 17 weeks. Now currently going to be 29 weeks taking just the baby aspirin, baby & I are doing great.

Answer

I have a blood clot disorder too, I don't know the name because when they say it, they say it so fast I can barely understand them lol.

But I had two miscarriages before they found out and then I got pregnant again and was put on lovenex, but I still ended up miscarrying. This time it was different though. I didn't bleed or anything, the baby just stopped growin so I ended up needing a d&c.

The doctor said that she thinks they've pin pointed what's wrong with me and that this third time was just a fluke so they're hoping the fourth time will go just fine. I'm also on progesterone suppositories when I'm pregnant.  Hopefully if I get pregnant again, it will will work and I won't have to go thru another miscarriage. THEY SUCK!!!

Answer

Can I ask a clotting question? I tested positive for APS then I had a 12 week follow up and I was normal so they ruled it as no clotting disorder but I had a blood clot in my placenta at my sons delivery at 15 weeks. 
Did everyone have repeat labs to confirm or just one abnormal was enough? I feel like I might be getting pushed around with information

Answer

Hey. Im 3w now. Had 2 miscarriages recently, was diagnosed with PCOS, Hashimoto's and tested positive for Lupus Anticaugulant. Now on Clexan Injections, Aspirin, Metformin & Progesterone. Really praying that this works.

Answer

I have the same as you. I was tested because I had 2 miscarriages last year at 5  and 6 weeks. I am now 8+2 today having to inject clexane and take a baby aspirin everyday. So far so good x

Answer

I have was also diagnosed with a blood clotting disorder. Took baby asprin and lovenox with my daughter who is now 3 and healthy as can be. Currently 9 1/2 weeks and on lovenox and asprin again. Taking lovenox gave me my rainbow baby, before I was diagnosed I had 2 MC. Good luck to you and baby.

Answer

Did anyone have spotting with the lovenox? I had my first injection this morning and had pink spotting this afternoon. Really worried because it was exactly the same as my missed miscarriage spotting :/

Answer

I have a similar blood clotting disorder. I took the baby aspirin my first pregnancy and carried daughter to 36 weeks. She was perfectly healthy. I've since thrown a blood clot and am now taking heparin through this pregnancy. I'm currently 22 weeks in and all is well. Good luck sweety!
