Pregnant after a Loss

1st beta results (anitaflora)

I hope I'm not being completely obnoxious starting a separate thread here! Thank you all so, so much again for your thoughts, prayers and support.

First beta was 41.9. I'm supposed to have a follow up blood draw Wed to see what it's doing. Spotting has continued but at least not gotten worse so far.

She said to reduce my progesterone suppositories though which I completely don't get. Why would I be reducing them if there's a chance it's still viable??? So I asked a question about that and am waiting for her email back to me.

Not a great start as I expected but above 25 anyway which is more that I expected.

Thanks so much again my friends!! I don't know what I would do without you.

Actually I did hear from her abt the progesterone and she said the dr advises that once implantation is done that the 2x per day is sufficient. But if I want to continue at 3x per day I can. I guess I will.

Thanks again all!

  • Thanks so much again, all.

    It's not looking good to be honest. I've had increasingly heavy spotting and some pretty strong cramps now over the last couple days. It hasn't let up. So combining that with my history, with the really, really late hpt.... I just would be absolutely shocked beyond belief if it doubled right.

    But, for now I'm just trying to remain "emotionally neutral" is the only way I can describe it.

    I really, really thank you for the thoughts and prayers and want more than anything in the world to stay over here for once rather than having to leave for the ... I don't know I've lost count... This may be the 4th or 5th time I've introed over here but would end up being my 7th loss.

    Thanks again all xoxoxoxoxo.
