Yup.
Some people are on it for less time though.. It depends on your issues.
Though, most are on it the entire time, and then some.

this is a new one for me....i asked my doc and he said lovenox needs to be stopped before delivery bc anasethsiologist cant give epis while on it and i have to switch to heparin....
why were you guys told to stay on it even after delivery?? me sooo confused!

I was switched to Heparin at 36 weeks and the pit back on lovenox right after birth. The reason for the switch is that heparin has a shorter half life and they can give you something to counteract the heparin but they can't do it for the lovenox. I had to wait for a certain amount of time before I could get my epi because of when my last dose of heparin was

Re: lovenox how long
I only stayed on lovenox until 12 weeks. I wasn't on it for blood clotting issues but because there was resistance in my uterine artery blood flow. So the amount of time you're on it I think depends on why you are on it.

Re: lovenox how long
I was on Lovenox my whole pregnancy (well, I started when I was like 2 months preg), and then 6 weeks PP. But my last two weeks of pregnancy, I was on Heparin. Then after having my DD, back on Lovenox.

Same I was only on it for the first trimester, not including the time I was on it during the cycle. It's a case by case basis
