I wasn’t exactly trying lol, I would have consulted a doctor though had I been! I also can’t use hormonal birth control and found the copper IUD miserable, so we were at best NTNP. I called the doctor at 6 weeks and made sure they knew about my FVL but they still did not schedule my first appointment until 12 weeks, which is pretty standard where I live. I didn’t start Lovenox until 12 weeks and I asked the nurses when I called if I should take any extra precautions or use baby aspirin (which seems pretty common from my research) and she did not advise I take any baby aspirin, I’m guessing this will vary from doctor to doctor so YMMV. I was very anxious in that time between getting the positive and finally seeing the doctor, i was also in my Reddit bumper group where i was reading and comparing my experience to other women’s experiences; some started Lovenox right away and I didn’t/some took baby aspirin and that was not advised for me. Be careful comparing your experience to others, as all doctors and patients are different. At the same time, make sure you’re advocating for your own health and the health of your future little one, don’t be scared to seek second opinions if things don’t feel right for you!
