Hi Ladies, :wave:

We've been TTC#2 for over two years now and after three losses and an HSG that showed nothing out of the form and two open tubes, the doctor did some more extensive blood work.

One of the things that came back HIGH (almost double of the "accepted" norm) is cardiolipin iGg which is an antibody that causes blood clotting. And after that I found out that my Mom had to inject herself daily with heparin to prevent her blood from clotting during her pregnancy with me! (She passed in 2010 and since no one in either family knows we are TTC except one aunt - I had to have her discreetly ask my grandma!)

So I know that it's possible to achieve pregnancy with this. But I wanted to know if anyone else on here has this and is currently TTC with it and what their doctor's prescribed, etc.

I am seeing a hematologist tomorrow (lucked out and got an appointment for this week after only finding out Friday that this was high!) and I want to know what questions I might have to ask!

Thanks ladies!! :flower::flower::flower:
