Anyone else taking any aspirin?

I'm taking baby aspirin after reoccurring miscarriages and I'm still pregnant so it seems to be making a difference so far.

Is anyone else taking it? Or have taken it? Did you go onto have a healthy pregnancy?

I'm so anxious, constantly checking if I'm bleeding. Need to read some success stories!

I'm taking it as I tested borderline positive for a blood clotting disorder at recurrent miscarriage clinic. I'm 10 weeks today which is the furthest I've ever got! I know what you mean about checking for blood, I check every time I go to the loo. Good luck x

I'm taking 75mg daily of asprin recommended by hospital registrar via my GP to reduce the likelihood of preclampsia.

I'm still taking it as recommended by midwife to prevent pre-eclampsia - 30 weeks now.

I took it when pregnant with my 2 children due to pre eclampsia in first pregnancy. They are 3&4 now and perfectly healthy.

Yes I am. I assumed it's cause I'm old (39) history of clots (mothers side)

I am taking 75mg daily to prevent pre eclampsia too - 30 + 1 here :)

I'm 33 weeks today Smile Midwife advised me not to take asprin, if possible, on the day I go into labour as it thins the blood. Bubs may have other ideas though and decide to make an appearance after I've taken my usual daily dose! Midwife said this isn't a problem if this happens.
