    Default So...something.

    Hi Ladies,

    As most of you know I miscarried my last two babies - one at 12 weeks and then at 5 weeks (all since February). Well, I am pregnant again and have been testing every other day and the tests today are lighter than the ones from two days ago. I did talk with the doctor and they will do blood work today and in two days (HCG and Progesterone). They will do an ultrasound once my HCG is over 2,000.

    I was resting confidently in the Lord until the tests today (funny how great your faith seems when everything is going well, isn't it? You then realize that in reality it is fairly week). Please pray for me. I know that the Lord will get me through this no matter. I don't know why this is happening but I know that it is for my good.

    I'm so sorry! It's very hard to stay strong. I did want to share a bit of my story with you. After my second DD we tried for one more. I ended up miscarrying three times. What eventually worked for me was starting the progesterone at 3dpo (100mg twice a day/ vag suppositories). Good luck and I'll be thinking of you!

    My doctor does seem to be taking this pretty seriously since she normally doesn't even see you until you are between 8 and 10 weeks. I am so sorry that you had to go through a loss three times in a row but am so glad that your doctor was able to help you!

    Thanks all.

    This isn't looking good. My tests are lighter again this morning. I don't know how I can go from two successful, uncomplicated pregnancies to loosing three in a row.

    I have to start prometrium as my progesterone is low. M HCG was consistent with being pregnant "a few weeks." My DH doesn't even want me to take the prometrium since he thinks that this pregnancy is over already.

    I would start the prometrium. I had a m/c for unknown reasons just before I got pg with the girls and started bleeding again right around the same time. With the twin pg I had just consulted with a new OB who met me at the ER, gave me a shot of Progesterone and started oral Progesterone with a great outcome. It certainly would be worth a try IMO. Good luck and my thoughts are with you!

    I will be praying for you. I also apologize b/c I didn't even realize that you had been pregnant/miscarried in May.

    I did start the prometrium last night.

    After my sudden loss in September, I was pretty quiet about my second loss so I'm not surprised that you missed it - especially with that precious little girl so close to being here!

    And this pregnancy is over just after it started, too. We need wisdom as to where to go from here. I am, well, I don't really know.

    MY OB is referring me to an RE. This is scary and exciting.

    I'm happy you're going to be seeing a specialist.

    Just seeing this now. I'm so sorry for your losses. That is great that you are seeing a specialist now, though! I hope they have answers so you don't have to go through this again.
