>My daughter, who is 8 mos preg (age 28) was diagnosed with a low protein c
>deficiency and the Factor v Leiden. She has been receiving injections of
>Lovenox 2x daily. The Dr. is concerned that the baby is 2 weeks behind in
>growth and has put her on total bed rest. Can you tell me if there are
>any nutrient issues with the Lovenox and pregnancy and what happens in the
>event she may need a C-section. She had a miscarriage prior to this
>pregnancy. I too was diagnosed with the low protein C deficiency, which
>caused her to be tested. I had three successful pregnancy's and have
>never had a blood clot, however, my two sisters have. I never took oral
>contraceptives, however my daughter did. There is little information in
>this condition and the effects of Lovenox and pregnancy. Can you provide
>some information. I think the stress of not knowing about this disorder
>and the effects of the Lovenox, is creating unneeded anxiety for my
>daughter. Thank you
