Hi everyone! I hope it's okay if I barge in. I am about 5.5 weeks pg with my first. It's been a roller coaster of a few weeks. My doc thought I was six weeks (based on LMP) when I was pretty sure I was only four (based on O date). I also had low progesterone, so I had to start taking progesterone pills and having blood draws every two days. I've also already had two ultrasounds. The first one was too early to see anything, the second last night showed me to be 5.5 weeks. My progesterone still isn't as high as my doc wants it. It's a little under 14. I'm cautiously optimistic though, and hoping I get to stick around here until June 25th!

Congratulations! Are you on a suppository version of progesterone? I was told that those don't affect your progesterone level in a blood test because they're absorbed right into the source without hitting your bloodstream. So you may have more progesterone in aggregate than it seems.

Welcome and congrats! coribelle26 is correct - if it's a suppository it will not be in your blood draw. I was on PIO (progesterone in oil) shots until 20-ish weeks so I feel your anxiety about low prog. Hang in there!

Yes, I'm taking the progesterone suppositories. That makes me feel much better, knowing that it won't show up in the blood work
