Have any other mamas out there been put on Aspirin during their pregnancy?? If so, why? Also, has anyone been on Aspirin while breastfeeding?? I hemorrhaged with my firstborn, and they wanted to start me on Aspirin during this pregnancy. I am still breastfeeding and am extremely nervous about taking Aspirin, given the fact of breastfeeding and hemorrhaging with my first. Thank you for any suggestions/replies!

I took aspirin at the beginning of this pregnancy because I have a clotting problem. Ended up losing the last pregnancy at 16 weeks because a clot went through his cord. Now I’m on blood thinner shots for the rest of the pregnancy.

I took it along with progesterone my last pregnancy, and am currently on both again this pregnancy. I’ve had recurrent miscarriages.

I was put on because I’m over 35 expecting twins and help prevent preclampcia. Was told its automatic for anyone over a certain age and if having multiples.

I would be concerned about taking aspirin with a history of hemorrhage. Aspirin acts as a blood thinner and can cause hemorrhage to be worse.

Generally, aspirin isn’t recommended during pregnancy unless you have certain medical conditions. Low-dose aspirin — 60 to 100 milligrams (mg) daily — is sometimes recommended for pregnant women with recurrent pregnancy loss, clotting disorders and preeclampsia

The Ovia Pregnancy app has a feature where you can enter in a medication and see how safe it is during pregnancy.
As far as breastfeeding goes I’m sure it’s fine but you can always ask your OBGYN, pediatrician, or a lactation consultant. :slightly_smiling_face:

I was put on low dose baby aspirin to help prevent preeclampsia but I was high risk in general so we just took all precautions.
