@ChloandCoco Sorry, I meant only that my OB said I could take it as a preventative to pre-e. Even though it was a healthy pregnancy. But maybe your OB meant not to take it because it could cause a complication? I am fairly familiar with clotting disorders because I work in a hospital lab that does testing for them. Its just so odd how different OB's can be on advice for what is a good idea to take during a pregnancy and what isn't.

@ChloandCoco Thank you for asking about it! That's really interesting to know as I've heard a lot of people recommend it. I probably will not start it this TWW then and wait for my RE appointment on the 22nd to see what they say. I didn't know that Clomid could thin your lining. Interesting! I'm glad you're getting some testing done and hope it doesn't take forever to get the results back. Where are you at in your cycle? I've got my fingers crossed for you. @meatballs37 Yes! It seems like everyone has different ideas and suggestions. I mean, it makes sense, but I also wish there was more of a definite answer for all of these things. But I guess that's just not possible since each person's body is different and what works for one person might not work for another.
@offtoneverland Right?! I have read up on lab testing for prenatals when I was in clinicals and I feel like the US in general is way behind on best practice for initial labs. I had them draw a TSH on me when I was pregnant and they found out I needed to be put on meds for hypothyroidism. Apparently it is pretty standard in other countries to run a TSH as part of a routine prenatal work up. Who knew?

@meatballs37 Ah, I get it and no worries. I had no idea you knew so much about clotting! I might have a few questions once my results come in. @offtoneverland My results will be back in a month, so in the grand scheme of things, it's not that long of a wait. I'm on CD3, but I was thinking of joining the WTO/TWW next week. I hope you get some answers from your RE when you go on the 22nd.
