Baby aspirin

Is anyone taking low dose aspirin? Or have taken it for previous pregnancies?

    I started taking a baby aspirin after my miscarriage.  The OB said with my history of pre-e/HELLP and now the miscarriage that it was a good idea.  I'm pretty sure I'll stay on it for the entire pregnancy.

    I've not heard about taking baby aspirin, is this only for fear of high blood pressure, ie potential pre-e?

    I've had a miscarriage and it was recommended that I take it with this pregnancy. OB said it can't hurt anything so it was worth a shot.

    I'm taking baby Aspirin per my OB. I have type 1 Diabetes and she said it helps to increase blood-flow which in turn decreases risk of miscarriage.

    My OB put me on it post-loss. As PP have said, it is supposed to increase blood flow to the uterus. I've been on it since February, so it's just part of my routine.

    Just FYI to everyone who might be lurking this post, please don't start taking aspirin unless instructed to by your doctor.
