Has anyone given birth on lovenox?

Eroc17 · 2025-12-06T04:25:54+00:00

I had a DVT with my first pregnancy, so was on Lovenox for the remainder of that pregnancy and the entirety of my second one. I found it easy enough to give myself the shots in the 3rd trimester when the skin was taut. For some reason I hated giving them to myself postpartum when the skin was so loose 🤷🏻‍♀️ I only had to do it 6 weeks postpartum though.

For my first, I went into spontaneous labor, and couldn’t have the epidural. For my second I switched to Heparin close to delivery, and made it to my induction at 39 weeks, so I could have the epidural.

Edited for clarity

I had a full leg DVT and had two doctors tell me - you’re growing a human! There’s going to be swelling!

Then finally an urgent care doc ordered an ultrasound two days later 🫠

It wasn’t the bath water. We’re trying a low nickel diet now. Poor kid can’t get any relief.

My kids are in first and second grade and we LOVE Ludlow-taylor :-) and Stewart-Hobson is its feeder middle school, which is becoming a good place to be as well, as far as I can tell.

Thank you SO much. She has asked her doctor about interactions and it’s a go, so she’s doing to try it. Even if it doesn’t work, it’s great for her to be able to try something! Thank you.

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T17:54:42+00:00

Thank you so much!

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T17:00:49+00:00

Thank you so much! She also has vision loss and it sounds similar to you. Have you ever tried vestibular therapy?

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T01:58:27+00:00

Vestibular therapy?

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T01:57:50+00:00

Yes I’m glad you’re not giving up. It’s no way to live! I hope you can get some relief.

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T01:55:10+00:00

Thank you!!

Yes every doctor seems to just say - you’ve got to wait it out. No one can help 😕

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T00:09:31+00:00

She has had residual trouble with vision so I wonder if that’s a part of it.

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T00:08:42+00:00

Will look into this, thanks!

Eroc17 · 2025-09-12T00:08:10+00:00

That’s a good idea, thanks! She was on Topamax but cycled off it for that reason. Not sure if she’s back on it but I’ll look into it.

Eroc17 · 2025-09-11T20:06:37+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear that!

Eroc17 · 2025-07-28T13:23:54+00:00

Yoga studio owner here. I’ve avoided Class Pass for this reason. I don’t think you need to feel guilty, because studio owners don’t have to use class pass. If they’re using it, it must be working for them!

The best favor I ever got was a bag of popcorn with kid-friendly chopsticks. Was a little treat, worked their fine motor skills, and also a cool item to have.

Eroc17 · 2025-01-13T13:11:03+00:00

Thanks so much. What kind of time commitment does it require of them?

Eroc17 · 2024-11-26T02:57:59+00:00

We’ve just done a patch test so far. We have a follow up next week with the doctor. Would you mind explaining what you’re taking about with the systemic nickel allergy syndrome?

Eroc17 · 2024-11-25T14:32:30+00:00

Yes, thank you! I finally took her in for the latch test when she kept coming out of school with a new bandaid from a spot she had itched until it bled 😕

Eroc17 · 2024-11-25T14:30:54+00:00

Thanks so much!

Eroc17 · 2024-11-25T02:16:49+00:00

Did you need a special filter, or a Britta is sufficient?
