got my numbers back

just a little update:

my nurse just called and said that my progestrone dropped to 18 and my hcg is at 25,000. so my hcg doubled as it should have. she said that i dont need to worry about my progestrone cause it is fine, but i am still worried. i dont understand why it is dropping when i am on 200 mgs of prometrium twice a day.

anyway, i go in for ANOTHER sono tomorrow at 1:20. they wanna see if there is a yolk sac there now, or if the gest sac has at least grown.

keep me in your prayers. i am about to lose my mind!

Coming from someone who is adopted, it's truly a wonderful thing and so many children need a home. Always a thought. I don't look at my Mom and Dad any different then just that. It feels like they're my REAL Mom and Dad. Maybe you she see a therapist to talk about issues before you make such a dig decision like that. It is all in God's timing I had two miscarriages in a row and was down, didn't wanna try again. The next opregnancy stuck and he has Autism, thankfully he's high functioning. You just never know what could have been wrong with my other two, maybe God knew that I couldn't handle whatever it is that may have been wrong. I always trust and believe in God will never give you more than you can handle. I cannot imagine how you must feel right now, but word of advice, wait until you're not upset and have a true peace to make that decision you're still young and never know in 5 years, you may wanna try again and that may be your time, or heck in four months that may be your time. You will be in my thoughts and prayers =)

I know its stupid to ask, but have you thought of adoption? And also, if you don't tie tubes and dont have BC pills, and do get pregnant, what are the chances that it will stick?
Maybe it will be your time...I just think that you are so young and beautiful, you still have plenty of time to figure things out...? I m the one that doesn't like to give up hope...

This was my 5th pregnancy. Dh and I decided that if this one didn't last we would stop trying. I cannot be on birth control BC I have a blood clotting disorder which means we run the risk of pregnancy every time we bd. I also have lupus so this has taken a big toll on my body. I am truly ok w not trying anymore. It is a huge relief to be on the same page w dh and to finally move on w my life. Plenty of ppl don't have kids, and I'm one of them. My life will go on.

Hi, I tried to send you a note but I couldn't -says you won't accept any notes..
anyway, I am very sorry that you had to have d&c done...but I am very surprised that you decided to tie your tubes? why? You are so young, you still have at least 15 years, why give up so early? You can get pregnant so many times......

Pls do not give up. I know how it feels after being struck with "bad news" over and over again. I have been there too. I am so sorry for all your struggle and heartache. I never thought I was going to get PG and here I am (though with LOTS of worries and challanges... I do not even know the outcome of this PG yet). Lots of love.

well, i had my d&c yesterday and i am finally home.

ugh, there were some complications because i have a hard time coming off of the anesthetic. i was in a lot of pain afterward too, but they hooked me up with morphine and vicodin. as of now, my throat is a sore from tube they put down my throat but i am feeling better. in fact, im going back to work tomorrow.

we are going in march to get my tubes tied. it does make me a little sad to think that i will never poas and have those two beautiful pink lines come up, but life will go on. i am kinda relieved that i am getting it done.

anyway, i am going back to bed. hope all is well with everyone!

I am so sorry, I agree with Mumita, don't give up trying just yet, you are still so young and you have lots of time. You don't want to have any regrets.

i have a d&c set for tomorrow am at 11:30am. the sac showed to not have grown and my doctor says that he thinks that my numbers didnt increase like they should have. he said that he thinks it is a blighted ovum. sooo, i guess the outcome was the same. i still dont wanna do it, but now i know i have to. at least i have peace.

The reason the progesterone is not a major deal is because it fluctuates throughout the day. When you went in for the blood test your progesterone was probably just low at that time of day. The fact your HCG keeps going and going is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should see something via ultrasound now that your levels are over 25,000.

The numbers seem fine to me, just remember that you have to let your body do its thing and you have to stop stressing and relax.  I know this is very difficult specially with your history, but let it be.
Are you taking a baby aspirin everyday?  That seems to help some people.  I started taking Omega 3 everyday and I believe that it helped.

Good luck!!

I guess thats a bit of a double edge huh...good news on the hcg..but if she says not to worry about the progestrone then dont! Worrying will only make things worse. I know thats kind of a stupid thing to tell you because you'll probably worry anyways..but really. Relax as much as possible. Congrats on the good news. I hope you see a change on Friday! Super Duper Good Luck!

Good news on your hCG!!  I know it should be doubling at this point so that is great!  I don't know much about progesterone, sorry, but I am definitely praying for you and wishing you the best.

I will be sure to say a prayer for you today! I'm glad to waited to have the d&c while the stress must be horrible if you didn't wait you would always wonder about it. Good luck at your sono tomorrow and be sure to keep us posted.
