I lost my first child in 2007 due to severe PE, and a second daughter in 2011 because of a complete abruption (which according to my doctors is related PE + abruption= faulty placental implantation.

I went to get my 3rd and final opinion yesterday with a local Peri. I am having my IUD removed next month, and she would like to me to be on lovenox 40mg once a day starting next month, and switch to twice a day once I get pregnancy.
