Hi!
Congratulations!
If you were my patient, I would consider giving you baby aspirin and progesterone daily.
I would probably want to follow your hcg (pregnancy hormone levels) to see if they were rising appropriately, and I would want to ultrasound as soon as you reached about 2000 IU.
I would also check your progesterone level.
Chances are good that this pregnancy will continue, and that the last two were ( as you put it --bad luck)
I sure hope so!
Dr B
