anyone else on clexane / other blood thinners?

Question

hi, i just wondered if anyone else is on blood thinning treatment during their pregnancy? I will have to self inject each day during pregnancy until around 6 weeks postpartum. I just wondered if anyone is doing the same and has any experience to share? I've used clexane before and got on fine with it, but nervous with pregnancy. Thank you

Answer

I'm on them. was nervous to begin with but fine now. I find injecting into my tummy fat the easiest and injecting at a 80 degree angle causes me less discomfort and the needle enters easier. good luck with yours, if you get lots of bruising ask your midwife to examine you're technique x

Answer
