Hi
I am 37+4 weeks pregnant and have jus been told that I have low platelet - now 133. Community midwife said I cannot have home birth as too low. Has anyone got experience of this? I spoke to an independent midwife and she said they work on 80 or lowers as danger benchmark. I may end up going with an IM but it is big expense.
Has anyone got any tips for diet as to how I can naturally increase level or experience of labour with low (on my levels) platelet level. Also are they likely to drop further? They were 144 in June so not dropped dramatically.
Thansk
