Ladies I need advice preferably from someone that has been in this situation. I have a blood clot in my right leg that extends from my groin to the back of my knee. I’m in so much pain and just got out of the hospital after staying for a week recently. DVT is deep vein thrombosis for those that don’t know. I’m currently on 40mg of Lovenox twice a day. I’ve been concerned with whether to continue this pregnancy as well as what if I continue what will happen. I was told by an OB in the hospital that this was brought on by my pregnancy because I am otherwise healthy and never had this happen before with any of my other pregnancies. He doesn’t encourage me to terminate pregnancy, but there is a risk of great proportions as the baby continues to grow and presses on my femoral artery which is where the biggest portion of the clot is. Then I guess you can say regular doctor doesn’t know what will happen. All we can do is give you meds to makes it dissolve and discontinue use 6 days before you deliver and then start you back on meds after delivery. Has anyone been through this? I’m terrified! I can’t eat or sleep. I have 4 children already and I love all of my children here or in the womb, but I definitely don’t want to risk my life and leave them devastated without a mother. Ladies please offer anything that you’ve been through concerning blood thinners and delivery or even if you decided not to continue because of the condition. What was your experience?
