Ran out of PIO - HELP!!

Okay, so we were not that smart. I knew I was getting low on the PIO and the weather people were warning us about a big storm. Well, they aren't usually right, except this time of course. So I only had enough PIO for half a dose tonight. I am so freaked out!! Has this happened to anyone else? What do I do? Stupid icy roads, if they weren't icy we would have made the 45 minute drive today, we just weren't going to chance it!! GRRR!!!

Does your clinic have a emergency beeper number you can call and ask what to do? I called them when I realized I had run out of PIO needles and only had HCG needles.
I ran out of PIO when I was out of town and called, luckily a nurse was coming to the town I was in. I know that doesn't help you- I'd call if you can and see.

Oh, PIO is Progesterone In Oil.

Sorry, yes PIO is progesterone in oil. They have an emergency pager number for the "up time" but we are now in the "down time" so they don't. Do you think it will be ok to wait till morning? God I hope so!!

I would think that you would be ok because you had some and some is better than none. I am positive that it will be ok!

I agree with saj. You should be okay. I will keep you in my prayers and drive careful tomorrow.

Don't worry too much about it. Skipping one dose or 1/2 dose will not jeopardize your pregnancy. You will be fine, just make sure you get your full dose tomorrow morning.

Thank you all so much, my DH keeps telling me that too!! 1/2 is better than none, and I can't assume this is going to end a possible pregnancy! Thank you, I should be able to sleep tonight!! LOL!!
