Pregnancy Info HOME

A little about me: I am 32 and have two beautiful children plus an angelbaby up above. Cooper was born at 22 weeks after two weeks of placental bleeding which resulted in an infection that caused me to go into labor. After he was born they discovered two large blood clots on his placenta and had me tested for a whole array of things. It turns out I am compound hetero for the MTHFR mutation plus hetero for factor II prothrombin. My perinatologist wants me on daily Lovenox injections for my next pregnancy which I have heard completely suck but I think I can handle it. I've done more research on my own and have learned I should be on extra folic acid and B vitamins and am a little concerned that my peri did not mention this. I met with my midwife last week and asked to get a script for folgard, she said she thought that would be fine but wanted to look into it first but hasn't gotten back to me. I'm beginning to think I should switch to an OB but I love my midwife and there are OBs in her office too that she consults with if she needs too. My peri is an hour away so I can't see him exclusively but plan on using both. My midwife for OB visits and my peri for my lovenox consults and U/S's. We are not even ttcing yet, I'm still trying to get all my ducks in a row first.....
