81mg Aspirin therapy-when to discontinue before labor?

[MyFillingQuiver]

In my first pregnancy, I was found to have a very high ANA titer during severe complications of pre-eclampsia, and delivered at 34 weeks. My second pregnancy ended near the end of the first trimester, with a subchorionic hemorrhage, likely due to the positive ANA blood clotting issue. At that point, no one ever recommended anything to me to help. With the loss I saw a wonderful OB/RE who recommended the aspirin therapy.

Ever since, I've taken 81 mg aspirin each day of my life. I have no health issues. My ANA is generally negative or very weakly positive. I take it to avoid any issues if it increases, and to help keep it "dormant". I've avoided pre-e in 4 other full-term pregnancies, delivered healthy babies/healthy placentas, and things look good this time, as well. This is my first time with MW/homebirth care. She asked me when I was advised to discontinue the aspirin with my previous pregnancies, and I can't remember!

Any of you on aspirin therapy during pregnancy? If so, when did you discontinue? All the reading I've done seems to be about 35 weeks...

I stopped at 35 weeks, and everything is going well for me with my due date 6 days from now. I think that is the recommended time

I was on it through my entire second pregnancy because of a history of severe preeclampsia at 32 weeks. I still developed severe pre-e, and was still given it every day even on hospital bedrest when we knew that I could need to deliver any day. I took it the day before delivery became necessary, and had a c-section with no complications.

I am homozygous for MTHFR, and 37 weeks and have been told to stay on it through birth. I will NOT be declining the Vit. K shot as I have in previous deliveries.

My OB had me on aspirin from 6-20 weeks. I delivered vaginally with no problems at 40 weeks exactly.

Good luck!

I've been wondering the same thing? Thanks for asking! I'm heterozygous for MTHFR and have been on aspirin therapy since diagnosed while we were TTC. I hadn't thought about Vitamin K though, that's a good point!
