Coumadin is not used in pregnancy because it can cause birth defects. On the other hand, Lovenox is completely safe, very effective ,and is used quite often. You have nothing to worry about. Have a safe and easy pregnancy ! Good luck !

Lovenox injections are just as effective as coumadin, don't worry.

are you serious?? you need a good discussion with your doctor. lovenox is used for the same purpose as coumadin-to prevent clot formation. if no one explained this to you, you need a new doc.
