I recently took a home pregnancy test, for which is came back positive. My doctor gave me an estimated due date of March 4 2012. Which would put me at 5 weeks. Over the weekend, I had some spotting, so I contacted the on call OB. First thing Monday morning, they had me come in to check my levels. My HcG was 2000 but my progesterone was only 6... :( The OB is putting me on the suppositories. But I am nervous that I am in the process of miscarriage.... This is my second pregnancy with no previous history of miscarriages, and my first pregnancy was normal. I go back in on Thursday to have my levels re-checked again. Please pray for me/us. I am so nervous and scared.
I pray the progesterone works for you!
I am on progesterone as well, but not pregnant (that i know of) yet. I had IUI 8 days ago and since I have a history of M/C they put me on them. I take them orally though.
I know it's hard but try not to worry. Lots of women with low progesterone go on to have healthy pregnancies. My first beta hcg at 5.5 weeks was over 2,770 but my progesterone was only 15.2. My RE added a 200mg progesterone suppository nightly. I'm now 9 weeks 2 days.
im getting the urge again... (a little of a vent also)
