150mg Aspirin

[Koko1080]

Hi
Any pregnant taking 150mg of aspirin because of age? I’m 39 and 40EDD.
Thanks

Hi, I'm 21 weeks and taking 150mg due to risk of Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). That any use?

I’m taking 150mg aspirin because I’m 40 and fat. 22 weeks at the mo, started taking it at 14 when I booked into hospital.

I'm 28 and taking it due to my sister having pre clampsia and my mum having blood clots

Hi, I’m 40 and am on the same level dose as you, which I will be on until 36 weeks. It’s my first pregnancy so I understand it’s to safeguard against any risk posed by age and also the Drs not knowing how my body responds to being pregnant.

Same dose but due to previous pre eclampsia, annoyingly DH couldn't get the right dosage in sainsburys do I'm biting 300mg tablets in half each day and they taste so bitter!

Same dose, only aged 33, but a chonk.

@yestonodressyet I could only find 75mg soluble aspirin. Two of those in water - OMG it tastes like hell!

When are you all taking yours? There are some studies that show its best if taken just before bed (I was bored and googled).

@Connie222 you don’t have to dissolve them, you can take as any other tablet.

Same dose due to lupus anticoagulant.

Yes 9pm. They don’t know why but studies show it’s most effective taken at night, and this seems to be across the board whatever the medical reason for taking it.
