Hi mama! I took aspirin from w13 to w36, wasn't diagnosed with pre-eclampsia in the end and every blood pressure check at gynae appt had been normal.
I gave birth to a healthy 3.0kg baby at w38 via c section because breech 🤣🤣 baby refused to turn. Baby is almost 9 months now and 75 percentile height and weight 👌
As the other moms have shared this is for preventive measure, my gynae explained to me that it's because the moment you are officially diagnosed with pre-eclampsia, aspirin is no longer a viable option and pre-eclampsia is usually eased from giving birth (which leads to risk of premature birth). So it's better to be safe since low dosage aspirin is safe for pregnancy
If you'd like, can ask doc what is the normal range for blood pressure, and I measured once in a while at home because my parents have the Omron machine haha
So just take it consistently and keep up with your vitamins and eat healthily!! :) all the best!!
