Pregnant after a Loss

ok so i FINALLY have an update!

My last betas at 13dpo were 140 I think, and today at 21dpo they are 1,741. I think that's pretty good, but the 15 dpo betas I had drawn were lost and never seen again FFS. It sounds like my Progesterone is low because I am going on prometrium tomorrow, 200mg each night. I also have to see a hemotologist b/c I guess I have elevated Protein S, which can adversely affect pg's. All in all I guess this is ok news and ill do whatever it takes for this! Thursday I go in for another Hcg and prog draw!

  • The betas sound awesome!!

    I'm glad they were able to catch the progesterone. I was on Prometrium for my whole 1st trimester. And i'm glad they're looking into the protein levels.

    So yay! This is a lot of good news! Except for the fact that they lost your 15dpo betas. Douchecanoes.

    To make up for losing your blood that one time, I think they need to buy you a meal of your choice once you start having cravings.  ;)

  • I think the beta is great. Protein s is normally elevated during pregnancy but can cause issues if it is really high. I had high protein s during my second pregnancy and ended up with a blood clot in my leg so it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Currently I'm on lovenox to help prevent another clot.

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

  • I can't believe they lost the 15dpo betas, that's so infuriating! But I'm so glad the numbers look good and they are being proactive about the progesterone!

  • Good news!!!

    The prometrium isn't bad. Are they doing a pill or supository?

  • Woot Woot!!  Sounds like a GREAT update to me.  The progesterone things is minor.  No big deal and easy to supplement (I know that's not the right word but I can't think of what is).  Glad they are addressing these things right away.

     Now...to find those damn vials!!

  • Yay! Good to hear those numbers. I've been on prometrium 200mg a night too, and continue to take that til the 12th week. The pills are very easy to stomach but make you very sleepy and sometimes dizzy so take them before bed. My progesterone level has been around 30 while medicated, so everyone was happy with those results.
