Heparin Shots

Hi, has any mommy been prescribed Lovenox/ Heparin shots to help with blood coagulation? How is the baby now? My lab test shows high d-dimer (1.8) during 20 weeks and prescribed it by self injection in the fatty part of belly every 48 hours till 28 weeks. Just want to understand if this condition is rare or prevalent.

When I contracted covid at 19 weeks, I was given enoxaparin sodium injections, which should be the same as lovenox. The assessment was to prevent blood coagulation as I have diabetes, covid and pregnant, which poses a higher risk for blood coagulation. However, it was only during the period when I was covid positive. Thereafter, I didn’t have to continue with it anymore.
