I have been a little nervous lately. I had two chem pg. in the last 4 months. I don't know why yet. I am temping this month plus on hold. I will also get my progesterone checked next month. I was wondering if baby asprin can help with this problem. I want to ttc next month but if I do get pg. I want to do whatever I can not to lose it before I see a doctor about prog. levels. Has anyone been in this situation?

I am sorry for your frustrations with having this problem. I had chemical pregnancies too. Please do not take baby asprin unless advised by your dr. I was going to start taking it too until I came across all these red flags on how it is not safe to take unless you truly need it and have a clotting issue. SO please don't take it unless your dr. says so!!!!!

I, too, am so sorry about your difficulties conceiving. Going through the elation of getting that BFP followed by the despair of realizing that it's not going to stick it so traumatic. However, I have to agree with the previous poster. Although some women are advised to take baby aspirin in the first two trimesters, it's always under a doctor's supervision and for certain clotting disorders that cause recurrent miscarriages, such as lupus. Recent studies on aspirin have shown it to be helpful in preventing late miscarriages, but as far as I know, there isn't any data showing that it has any effect on first trimester miscarriages. I would really not take any medication while TTC without your doctor's advice. GL to you.
