I posted here back on August 8th and wanted to update all on my problem. I was 7 weeks and my prog level was 10.6. Had lots of bleeding and cramping then I started 200 mg of the supposotories a day. After 2 weeks of the supplements I went in for a 2nd ultrasound and baby looked good, grew lots, fast heartbeat and all is still well. What I think will all help you to relax more is to know that your placenta takes over at 8 weeks of pregnancy. From week 1 to week 8, your body alone is responsible for producing the progesterone that your fetus needs. Some of our bodies don't do a great job of it. Once your placenta takes over a 8 weeks, it is what produces the progesterone and it is considered a "safe-zone". I'm now off of the supplements for a week now and besides the awful morning sickness, everything is moving along fine. Best of luck to you all!
