Pregnancy Info HOME

I am 31 and on my second pregnancy after my first one ended in May. In the first, my hcg levels only rose 6% for the first two rounds of testing, then began falling. My progesterone was 14. My doctors said there was no hope because they hadn't found a heartbeat and my gestational sac was collapsing, so I took misoprostol to end the pregnancy. Now I am 5 wks 5 days pregnant...at 5 wks 2 days I had HCG of only 154, and progesterone of 3.9, and when I was 5 wks 4 days I had an ultrasound where my gestational sac measured 4 wks 4 days with no cardiac activity. I am going in for my second HCG test on Monday, and my doctor won't give me progesterone supplements because she says 3.9 is too low (she says "at that level, if it's gonna make it, it's gonna make it, and if it's not, it's not.") It sounds like some of you were in my situation, and had successful pregnancies! Now I don't know what to do! I suppose I need the second HCG data point before I do anything, but I was already mentally scheduling a D&C until I read this board. What should I do?
