well it seems this pregnancy is not off to the breezy start I could have hoped for so am a bit emotional at the moment.

I went to docs for results this morning which started out as yeh good but then when I asked about the numbers he said well actually the HCG is nothing to worry about its all normal and won't tell us much more but the progesterone is a bit low - he then started to ask me am I feeling pregnant which I replied well nothing like my first two so now he is concerned that there is every chance I have or will miscarry as that is what low progesterone can indicate. in his words if I haven't miscarried before then he wants to do an ultrasound in 3 weeks to check for a heartbeat - doesn't want to do it any earlier cause it can still be so much touch and go as to whether you'll see anything - in case I have a missed m/c. You know how you just know when somethings not quite right well it seems I might have been right.

my hcg was 750 and progesterone 29 - I think - I was reading from a distance and over his shoulder. I'm sure it had on the form that progesterone in 1st trimester should be 30-100 but I've sinced searched on web and they have anything from 9 -90 depending on the website and some would suggest that the hcg may even be a bit low - I so don't know what to think

I'm so sad now and don't know how I"m going to wait the three weeks (especially with xmas jsut before hand) without going insane. I have so much to do and now don't want to do any of it.

Sorry this is all about me.


Anyway will bbl to go through the rest of the thread and reply but if I disappear for a while you'll all understand why.
