Pregnancy Info HOME

I am 8 wk 5 days and boy have I had a time with progesterone. I have never had a miscarriage & my heart goes out to those of you that have suffered such a great loss. Maybe my story can help, or you can help me wither way. My 1st pregnancy I took prog. suppositories 100 mg 2x day through my 14th week. My original number was not that low in hind sight at 17, but I carried her full to term, no side effects of the prog. This pregnancy started out much lower at 9. After 1 week of the suppositories it went up to 12.7 still too low, but my hcg levels look great, saw a heartbeat on the U/S and the heartbeat was 130 at 7 weeks. The baby measure 2 days smaller than actual gestational age, but I did this with my daughter too. Now, after having additional bloodwork at 8 wks 3 days my progesterone has once again dropped to 10. I will start either the injections or pills tomorrow, though I am thinking of bringing out the big guns and just going for the injections - just whatever it takes to get this kid here safe. What I am wondering is, how are you ladies that posted earlier this summer? How many of you made it with low progesterone? Especially those with the much lower numbers. I would love to hear how yall are doing.
