Sounds like good news on your bloodwork! for continued good news!

Re: I made my first Dr appt *Updated w/blood work results*

Congratulations!!!

I was monitored by a RE and my lowest measured Progesterone level was 12.7
He told me that he'd start getting concerned if it was under 10.

Don't forget, your Progesterone level will fluctuate throughout the day so the 12 is only a small snapshot in time. There are times throughout the day when it's lower and times throughout the day when it's higher. It's a hormone and hormones fluctuate constantly.

I was never on supplements, my Beta kept doubling all while my Progesterone hovered around 13 for weeks.
I am now 15w3d.

12 is enough to sustain a pregnancy!!!

Aw, you are most welcome!!

Don't get me wrong, I was nervous for weeks...it's all I could talk about to poor DH. Finally one day my RE said, "I realize there's nothing I can say to make you not worry about it, but I'm not worried about it" It was at that point that I decided to sit back, relax and have faith.

Funny thing is, last week DH said to me, "wow, you never talk about Progesterone anymore".

Yay Lisa!! I'm so glad your bloodwork came back good! I would definitely *try* not to worry about the progesterone. My doctor told me under 9 was when they really start to worry. It's good that they put you on the supps. just to be proactive though. I will definitely keep
