Question

What is baby aspirin?

I've suffered 3 miscarriages now and been reading up on why. I've read that taking baby aspirin thins your blood and can prevent miscarriage. What is baby aspirin and do I have to get it off the doctor or can I buy it over the counter?

Baby aspirin or low dose aspirin at the 81 mg strength has anti- inflammatory properties and has been studied extensively in that regard. My dr is a high risk specialist and recommends it especially when previous miscarriages are involved. You can get it over the counter, no prescription needed. It is safe and inexpensive. If anything, there is a possible upside to taking it. Best wishes and the Lord's blessings.

Thank you so much. I suppose it's worth a try then. We're willing to try anything to have a baby xx

After 3 miscarriages you should get tested for the antiphospholipid syndrome. I tested positive and I am on baby aspirin and Lovenox blood thinner injections during every pregnancy. All the best.

I've had 3 Miscarriaged aswell and have had all the test done and came back normal so consultant told me to take 150mg baby asprin so I did and when I became pregnant agin keep taking it till I'm 5 months so I did. And now I'm only just over a week away till I have my baby girl. So I do believe the asprin helped me, and even if it didn't that low dose of asprin wont do any harm to u. Best of luck xx
