Its maybe worth asking for...its certainly obvious why you would be concerned...i know in britain we would be sent packing though! We dont get any of these hormone level blood tests done as routine...it took 5 hours for me to be seen in casualty after a bleed at 12 wks, any earlier in pregnancy and id likely have been sent home to wait and see.

There's nothing wrong with having blood work done every 48 hours. Many women have this done. However, hormone supplements won't work unless your problem is low progesterone. It doesn't save a non-viable pregnancy - nothing will prevent a miscarriage if it's something wrong.

Not at all!  I had  2 m/cs before my first successful pregnancy so I understand ur anxiety.  Definitely ask for the tests.  Good luck
