JMRL...I do not know what my levels are. The doctor didn't tell me. I was just told that they had dropped. I have not had blood work done since Oct 19th. After reading this site, I am going to ask on Thursday so I have a better idea. Since this is my first pregnancy, I didn't press for the #s b/c I wouldn't know what was low and what was normal. I just know they are suppose to double every 48 hours. I was concerned about the fact that they had dropped. Hopefully the progesterone will help. I am just so glad I kept my BBT b/c that is the only thing that saved me from a D&C a few weeks ago. I told the doctor they had better be 100% sure before they did anything. Before hearing the heartbeat, the doctor told me there was only a 15% chance the baby would make it and it didn't look very good so did I want to go ahead with the D&C anyway to save me heartache down the road. My answer was a very loud no. I wanted to make sure my baby had a chance. My husband and I have been trying for about 5 months and I didn't want to just give up at the first problem.
