Recurrent Miscarriage

[Mommy_3]

Within the last 8 months I have had 3 miscarriages. They were all very early, before day 40. I am currently pregnant again and am very nervous about another miscarriage. On day 25 I had a quantative hcg of 76. On day 28 I had a quantative hcg and progesterone level taken. Hcg was 368, progesterone 21. My Dr. put me on progesterone suppositories 200mg once a day and I have been taking a baby aspirin a day. Is there anything else that I should be doing to try to help this pregnancy along? Thank you for your time.

I had a miscarriage on October12 and my Dr did blood work three times till i was at a level 7.  We have a had sex a few times but not tried to get pregnant.  I have not had a menstrual cycle yet.  Last week I took a home test and it was - and last night I took one and it was +.  This morning I took another + test.  Could I be pregant or leftover from the miscarriage?  I am so scared!

I was just at the doctor on Thursday, I thought everything was really great, I had an u/s it measured 8wks 1 day which is exactly what I was. I heard the heartbeat and was finally starting to relax a bit. Then I asked my doctor to check my progesterone level because I just stopped the suppositories and I got the results back today. My level was 15, before I even started the progesterone I was 22 and I went up to 28. I'm so nervous he told me not to worry and just go back on the progesterone but I can't help but think that if it's dropping something may be wrong. I asked him if he could check my hcg and he said he really wasn't concerned and I shouldn't be either. Any thoughts??

sorry it has been awhile, just finished exams!!!! but have my prac in 2 weeks (for 2 weeks) - i dont know what my levels are?? but i have another scan today - preparing myself as you do for good or bad news... everything seems to be going ok but it is hard to tell as my first 2 didnt stay for too long nor did they have a heart beat so this is unfamiliar territory... thank you for your prayers and your positive attitude... congrates on 7 weeks, I should be due around the 14 June - I will also keep you in my prayers....

You sound like me except that I didn't make it past 6 weeks until now and this time as soon as I found out I was pregnant they put me on Progeterone suppositories. Thank G-D it seems to be working, I never got to see a heartbeat before. Don't lose hope, it did work for me. I am suprised that your doctor never checked your progesterone levels before. My doctor did check mine and they were fine but he gave me the progesterone anyway in case my numbers would dip. Good Luck and don't be too nervous about the D&C, I had one with my first miscarriage, it's not so bad, it's actually better than doing it yourself. My thoughts are with you and you'll be in my prayers.
