TTC after 35

Is this pathetic??

Ok, I still have one more week until my beta, but I just got my progesterone level back.  The first time they tested it at 7dpo it was 7.  Not good, but RE didn't put me on anything because she said the Femara takes care of it a lot of times.  Last month, at 7dpo it was 17, so since she wants it over 15 no supplement then either.  Also a BFN and still started spotting 3 days before FP showed up.  So when I went in for my follie check, I asked about the spotting and if they thought it was a problem.  RE put me on Prometrium to start last Thursday.  My progesterone level today at 7dpiui is 27.34!!!!  I know that's not an indicator of pregnancy, but to see it be so high is really reassuring for me and gives me some hope here.  It's certainly not a fun thing to take, but it appears to be working, so I'll keep it up!!  YEA!!!!!!!! 

Is it pathetic to be this excited about this?  lol  I have definitely lost my mind over this whole thing.

  • I think its perfectly normal to get excited about any breakthrough during your TTC process... especially if you have been having troubles.

    Best of luck to you!

  • Thanks everyone.  I really felt like I was overreacting in my excitement, but couldn't help it.  I know DH was happy to finally see me happy about something so he was sort of excited about it too, even though he's still struggling with what all the numbers mean. lol
