It platelet count and PT needs to be monitored every 6 weeks-3months as u r on LMW heparin. U r on the right track do continue. Osteopenia i.e.bone thinning is a known side effects of heparin so u need to take it calcium supplements daily twice.it is in minor quantity.benefits outweigh the risks. Baby is not affected dont worry.
