Lupus and Anti-Phospholipid Antibody Syndrome = high risk pregnancy. Many lupus meds not OK with preg. Preg worsens Anti-Phospholipid Antibody Syndrome meaning you can throw a clot, also placenta clotting is common leading to stillbirth. This risk is elevated despite blood thinners. Most lupus pregnancies are not full term due to complications.

If you get preg you can lose your life or/and the fetus. Both you and the father of the baby must be willing to take that risk. Scary stuff.
