Pregnancy Info HOME

We just started trying for another pregnancy this week. I am also scared of having another miscarriage because that is such a devastating thing to go through. I agree that you almost have to be your own doctor in many situations. I will be asking lots and lots of questions this time!! It does sound like you may have an allergy to aspirin. I don't know if heparin has aspirin in it but I would think that it does not. I'm sure they will know what to give you as an anti-clotting med to replace the aspirin.
My IgM was also slightly elevated and the IgG and IgA were normal. My rhum. told me to go ahead and take the baby aspirin but he didn't think that I needed to do the heparin shots but that would be up to my ob dr. I have been reading a lot of pregancy related books (as I'm sure you have been) and they talk like miscarriages and auto-immunity is a relatively new area of research (which concerns me a little bit). We are very lucky that we don't have lupus (that does not sound like a fun disease to have). Keep me posted on how things are going with you-it really helps to talk to someone going through the same thing that I am.
