Estrogen and Progesterone Blood Test Results
On Monday I had my blood drawn to check my estrogen and progesterone levels. Yesterday they called to tell me the results. The first thing the nurse said was, "Everything looks great!". Then she asked if I was taking progesterone suppositories. I told her I was on injection. To which her reply was, "Are you only on 1cc?" I told her I was on 2cc just like I've always been on. She acted really surprised and then told me that my progesterone levels were a little on the low side. I was a confused because she started our conversation with an enthusiastic "Everything looks great!". So which is it? I ask her if I needed to change anything and she said no and that was the end of our phone call. These last few days before the Beta are the worst. Mine isn't until Saturday. Three more days. Everybody keeps asking me how I am feeling and I don't feel any different than any other day except that I feel like a marshmallow and I want to go for a good run or head out to spin class or bootcamp and I can't. Boo!

I feel for ya! Those last few days are tough! I'm sure they'd let you know if you did need to change your dosage - it must be fine.
I really think if something was wrong, they'd do something about it. I agree that the last few days are the hardest. Praying for your miracle!
I feel for you, too! When I had a test while pregnant, they lead me to believe I had something wrong the way they were asking questions and it turned out to be nothing at all, just random questions. I'm sure they would tell you if something needed changing. Some medical professionals need to work on their bedside manner and nosy questions! ;) Praying for your family!
Pray'n for you!
The wait is the worst! Don't try to analyze how you feel, it'll just drive you crazy. Enjoy your time off! Praying!
grrrrr... sorry their questions are frutstrating. That happens all too often with pregnancies and usually turns out to be just fine. Undue stress, we'll pray against that and that you are enjoying your time off. :)
hugs, pryaers and excitement from the Leggetts
Oh, goodness, it would be so hard to wait. Praying for you!
