Lovenox/ Blood thinners?

Anyone taking Lovenox or blood thinners during this pregnancy? I have MTHFR, so I'm on .4mg injections of Lovenox once daily until 35 weeks, when I switch to Heparin, 2x daily. Anyone else?

  • I have Factor V Leiden as well. With my first pregnancy they had me take Lovenox and with the second they just had me take a baby aspirin everyday. Haven't had my first appointment yet but started taking 81mg aspirin already hoping they don't make me take Lovenox this time as well. 
  • I am on 100mg of lovenox for factor v Leiden and a protein c deficiency. I had a PE when I was 18 after starting birth control... I have my first pre natal appointment next week! Any of y'all have some positive stories about being on lovenox during your pregnancy??? I read about it as much as I can but some of the meesae boards etc can get kind of depressing...
  • I'm back on Lovenox .4 2x per day! I almost forgot how bruised my tummy would get SIGH.  I was on other drugs for blood clots but the min I was pregnant, I had to go off of them.
