Progesterone Results

I had b/w done yesterday to check my prog. levels to see if I can get taken off the shots.  Well it did go up (20.5) but not high enough for them to feel comfortable taking me off the shots.  Darn it!  Why can't my body just produce enough of that hormone?!?!?  I also thought that once the placenta takes over that prog. supplements are pointless?  Oh well....I was just hoping for a much higher number.  It makes me nervous that it is borderline low constantly.  Thanks for listening...

    Just remember that the numbers didn't go down so that's good news!  Hang in there.  And maybe get yourself a fancy dessert on the way home.  You and baby are in my prayers.

    I'm so sorry to hear that, but like Amy said, at least the numbers have gone up.  It sucks that you have to keep taking shots, but the pain will be worth it in the end.

    That sucks you still have to get the shots - I know that can't be fun, but try to keep thinking positive.  Every day that goes by is one day closer to when you'll meet your baby!  I know it seems like forever away now, but it WILL go fast.  Trust me....my baby is 6 months old tomorrow!

    I'm sorry your numbers didn't rise but I have faith that everything is progressing as it should for you.  The memory of the pain of those shots will fade and it will be so worth it.  I still have my sharps container and looked in at all those needles the other day...  I hated those needles but they got me here so I'm thankful for them.  Hang in there!!

    Thanks ladies!  I just hate that I'm a huge worry wort to begin with and having this issue isn't helping me any.  I'm happy to be this far along and I'll be anxious to hear the heartbeat on the doppler at my appt on Tues.  I plan to talk to the doctor then about this whole progesterone issue.  Hopefully he will be able to ease my fears.  Thanks for the support...you guys are the best!

    Aww, sorry about the shots. I'm glad things are progressing though. I can't believe you're almost in your second trimester! I hope they take you off soon.

    Aww, I'm sorry the news wasn't better, but at least it wasn't necessarily bad news.  When you get frustrated, just look at your ultrasound picture(s)!

    I'm sorry things haven't been going as well as hoped with the progesterone.  Hopefully, you'll get some good info at your appointment on Tuesday, and get to hear the h/b, too!  Thinking of you!
