Low Platelets

lizziealyssa

I am 18 weeks with baby #2 and just found out I have low platelets...again.  I had low platelets throughout my entire pregnancy last time around, but it was never low enough to require a doctor visit (I would have to see a specialist if it went under 100,000) and I ended up having my baby naturally at a birth center.  

Last time my midwife had me take Hemaplex to help out with platelet count.  This time I am taking Floradix (and slow release iron because Fe levels were a bit low too.)  The midwife is not concerned about the platelets and says it may be something my body does when I'm pregnant and not to worry unless they go under 100,000.  My question is do any of you have this same issue, and if so what do you do/take/eat to help out?  Thanks!
