got told I have a blood clot in my leg . I've been put on daily injections . do you have to be induced a little earlyier than ur due date anyone with any experience of this ???

Question

Answer

I'm on daily injections for blood clotting disorder because my blood may clot easier then someone else's. I have been on injections since I was about 5 weeks. With my first I did not get induced I had a date set because my son stopped growing as quickly as he should have because my placenta started to deteriorate, which is a side effect of the medication I believe. I ended up going into labor in my own a few days before my induction date. Also you will probably have to switch to twice a day injections when you hit 35 weeks or so because then the medication has a half life in your system and then if you needed a c-section they would be able to time the 
It correctly.
I also had a lot more monitoring toward the end of my pregnancy I had quite a few more sonograms towards the end to check the baby's size and make sure he was gaining weight. I know the injections suck and I dread them every single day but it keeps you and baby safe so that's all that matters. Good luck !!

Answer

I don't have a blood clot, but I have a blood condition where it clots quite easily. I've been on injections since I found out I was pregnant. My haematologist did mention that people who are on the same kind of injection are often induced so that they can be sure the medicine is out of your system entirely so there is no increased risk of bleeding if you need surgery or an epidural. Usually they'll induce fairly close to your due date. Probably a week before. But I was also told I have a choice to be induced or go naturally. It probably depends on what your doctor thinks/what's safest for you and baby!
