progesterone dropped at 4 1/2 weeks

My progesterone dropped at 4 1/2 weeks, I had a scan at 7 weeks and saw a heartbeat, so the doc said dont worry everything looks normal.
I had the same thing happen last year (including the good scan at about 6-7 weeks) and it ended in miscarriage at 11 weeks.
I am wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if there is a chance that this baby will survive?

it dropped from 76 to 54 or something like that, but i am in australia and they measure it differently over here. Also i dont have any m/s just sore boobs and waking in the night for the loo, so I thought this may be a bad sign too????
But it is reasuring to know that the levels can fluctuate, thank you.

how much of a drop? how low did it go? there are some normal fluatuations. i got very nervous last week when my progesterone levels dropped by 5 in 2 days. by the next draw they were up again. progesterone levels fluctuate all day long, so even if you have 2 draws in the same day you can get very different numbers.
