XP: Bloodwork Results...

MOORENOLES

Ok I had my levels checked today and they just called me with the results.

Betas: 213

Progesterone: 15.7

According to the nurse...they are concerned with my progesterone AGAIN so I'm starting my bi-weekly shots tomorrow. I don't know if I can handle this rollercoaster once again. Any positive thoughts are appreciated. Thanks ladies!!!

I know I told you this before, but try not to stress out about the progesterone.  A nurse practitioner there told me that the practice is notorious for ordering progesterone shots, even when levels aren't that low, just as a precaution.  I don't think your progesterone seems that low.  My progesterone was 15 as well at your point, and I underwent the biweekly shots and everything worked out great!  Many positive thoughts coming your way!

Also, are they going to test your betas in a few days to compare how they are progressing?

Sending lots and lots of good thoughts for you!! I've been thinking of you regularly and hoping that all is going wonderfully:)

I admit, I have no idea what a regular progesterone level should be.

The beta seems good, but I would think they would draw another one in two days to see if it's doubling.

I'm hoping everything turns out to be fine - which I'm sure it will!

Perhaps they're just being overly cautious? Sending lots of good thoughts your way!

I hope your doctor is just being overly cautious.  Good luck and keep us posted.  We're here for you.

I've got you in my thoughts!

I can't imagine what you must be going through. A friend of mine has to give herself shots twice a day, from now until 6 weeks after delivery.  I feel horrible for her, you, and anyone who has to go through shots throughout a pregnancy.  But it's good the doctors are staying on top of things, and just know that it will be so worth in the end!

My progesterone dropped from 30 at 4 weeks to 13 at 6 weeks and I had to take progesterone until 15 weeks and Connor was just fine.

 I will be thinking of you - I'm sure they are being overly cautious
