I forgot to mention that as soon as I saw the doctor, before we did the blood test with the low progesterone, he gave me a prog. shot. And, I am taking it also daily now. I hope it helps.
Michele, I am just like you, going to the bathroom, hoping to see no blood. It has slowed down with me, and now seems brownish. I have no cramps, so I am feeling a little better. But, can't a miscarriage take a while to happen? I don't want that, but just wondering. When I lost my previous baby, I was 12 weeks, went to the doctor, there was no heartbeat. The baby had died at 10 weeks and I didn't know it! No signs at all, except feeling really bloated around the time it supposedly happened. We have no idea if this was low progesterone. I think it was a chromosome abnormality. I had no blood that time.
I also wonder if your progesterone can fluctuate during pregnancy. When I had my blood taken, it was in the morning and I hadn't eaten. (Too nervous to eat then.) I wonder if that affects it? I've also heard it's lower in the morning.
I love this site! I've been searching all over to find others with this issue. Thanks for the comments.
