I’ve known people to take aspiring during pregnancy, one until 13 weeks and the second until delivery. From what I recall though one had a late term miscarriage and the other was fertility issues

@MoonMoon: I had hellp syndrome with my first and so with my second pregnancy, I started it at 12 weeks. I had a consult appt pre baby #2 with a MFM specialist just because I was nervous about possibility of reoccurrence before we tried to conceive. She said it was very low risk in general and no risk to premature closure of pda like other NSAIDS. I had a perfectly healthy pregnancy with no issues of BP or protein in urine, although I did have PROM at 36 weeks, unrelated! I had just started the baby aspirin again at 12 weeks, but you know what happened at 14 weeks, again totally unrelated to aspirin or preeclampsia.

My sister had an IVF donor embryo baby last year and they also had her do baby aspirin. Sounds like it’s one of those widely recommended preventative measurements these days!

@Chuckles: I did the same - RE advised taking in first tri for recurrent miscarriage. Not age related, they gave me the impression it’s safe and might help so why not. I don’t know about taking it later though.

I’m taking it for the same reason that you’re recommended it. I started at 12 weeks and am 33 weeks now. I’m 42. While I don’t know if it’s helped - my little girl is growing perfectly from what we can tell and I have no signed off pre/eclampsia so I haven’t worried overly much about taking it everyday.
