Blood clot needles at 28 weeks

[Bexx19]

Hi just had a call to say the doctor would like to put me on blood clot needles from 28week (probably not called that) wondering what it is about I’ve never had this before only after my c section so it’s all new and I’m like I don’t want to do it I’m fine I’ve never had a blood clot so why now? Has anyone else had this as I find this is bs because I didn’t go to my diabetes test this week (I had one at 16 weeks and all was clear) so they finding anything for me to do.

I'd ring and ask for clarification and medical reasoning behind it. It will either be an error that can be corrected following your call, or for a medical reason that can be explained to you to make an informed decision.
It won't be about control

They’re mainly used to prevent a blood clot in pregnancy-most people who are advised to use them won’t have had a previous blood clot.

No one on here is going to be able to advise you why you have been asked to use them. It’s not linked to missing a diabetes test, but if you have been asked to have the diabetes test due to having a high BMI, your BMI might also be a factor in why you have also been asked to use these injections.

Just because you had a normal diabetes test at 16 weeks doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be repeated as you have been advised to do. It is very possible to have a negative diabetes test in early pregnancy and for a later one to confirm diabetes.

Are you over 35? A smoker? IVF pregnancy? High BMI? Pre-eclampsia? Have more than three children? Have significant varicose veins? Have restricted mobility? Have a family history of blood clots? Had a blood clot yourself? Have a clotting disorder? ... there are LOADS of factors that could mean that they advise heparin injections.

That makes you sound incredibly immature.

You need to phone back and ask them to clarify why you need them.
