20 weeks 5 days

Hi mommies, I had my check up + antenatal scanning yesterday @ KKH. The Dr gave me aspirin to avoid high BP and afraid might have growth restrictions for the baby. Anyone experience this before? #firstbaby #pregnancy #advicepls

Yeah aspirin is normal for higher risk pregnancies. Just follow the dosage prescribed by your doc. I’ve been on 100mg Aspirin since 15 weeks and now I’m 36 weeks. My appt is tmr (14 July) and I think doc will ask me to stop taking Aspirin. I had post-delivery complication (preeclampsia) for my firstborn and my BP was relatively higher than normal during my first few visits for my current pregnancy that’s why doc prescribed me with Labetalol (for BP higher than 140) and Aspirin. So far my baby’s growth has been normal. I’ve also been eating durian a lot lately, now I’m just afraid he’s getting too big too quickly. Hahaha. Do ask your dr if you’re worried.
