[quote=Anonymous]I was a little surprised that my OB nurse practitioner told me to start a baby aspirin at 12 weeks to help prevent pre-eclampsia. I’m 39 years old and had a healthy pregnancy at 36. I do not have high blood pressure and am not obese. I’ve been looking at the ACOG (American College of Gynecology) recommendations for starting baby ASA, and it seems like it’s only recommended for women who have one high risk factor or multiple moderate risk factors. My only risk factor is age. So now I don’t trust the OB as I’m not sure she is following evidence based medicine and am also nervous since I have a small subchorionic hematoma (and they aren’t doing any ultrasounds to make sure it resolves). Any other AMA moms being started on aspirin just for age? I go to Physicians and Midwives in VA if anyone else belongs to that practice. [/quote]
