Low platelets

Anyone have this during pregnancy? I did my glucose test the other day and they called with the results. The test was fine but they found that I had low platelets and want me to see a hematologist. Anyone go through this?

Re: Low platelets

I had this when I was pregnant with my DD. It came up in my bloodwork. I ended up being monitored by a hematologist but it was fairly late in my pregnancy, the last couple of months. I would go in for a blood draw and they would look at my count. I ended up taking an OTC iron supplement.

It was fine. I think if your platelet count is too low it can affect labor and delivery but it never got to that point for me. Feel free to reach out with any questions and if you look under my previous Pregnancy posts (from 2013), I think I started a thread on the same topic and got some helpful responses.

Thank you! I'm seeing a hematologist on the 12th. We will see how it goes!
