Beta # 2 at 1,492 but Progestrone only at 24... Mood
Monday, September 29, 2008 | A General Update story

Okay, so the nurse calls to tell me that my 2nd beta is at 1,492 but the progestrone is at 24 and my RE wants it to be at least 25 so now they are going to give me progesterone in oil on top of it.  I have to go in tomorrow so they can show me how to do these injections. 

 

Very relieved that the numbers went up but frustrated about the progesterone. 

 

I must remember to think only positive thoughts for me and all the fab ladies on DS!!!

 

xoxo

    Congratulations on your beta... How exciting. Good luck with the progesterone, you are only 2 point from where they want it so it could be margin of error on the test. Think positive...

    Awesome BETA # hun....don't stress too much abuot the progesterone, the injections aren't "fun" but when you think that its for the baby, its all worth it. I've ALWAYS done the progesterone in oil injections (intra muscular) since we started the process.....you just get used to it I guess. Its worth it!!!! Remember, its for the baby. I LOVE saying that don't you:) Good luck, this will for sure raise your prog #! XOXO

    Great Beta number. I already take the shots since the day after the ER. They are not that bad. Sometimes it get a little sore and I do have a bruise on one side but that was DH error I am certain LOL.
