Pregnancy Info HOME

erin-

i have one mutation which means i'm a carrier but my husband has 2. MTHFR is a blood clotting disorder and I to have had four miscarriages the last of which happened at 18 weeks. I have been told that in my future pregnancies I would be put on a higher does of folic acid as well as blood thinners. In my case my husband will pass on the disorder no matter what and I have a 50 50 chance so if it turned out that I did pass it on MTHFR can cause blood clots to form around the baby or the placenta. I go to meet with the gentic counsler on the 30th so hopefully I will find out more.
