We decided to take a short break from medications and procedures and go on vacation. I was kind of annoyed because my period was due the last day of our vacation. Well, it didn't start that day, or the next day, or the next day. Two days after we got back from vacation (this past Monday) I took a pregnancy test and it was positive. So I took 3 more, all positive including a digital.
We were excited and scared and freaked out. It was amazing that his had happened. After all of these procedures and medications and time and money, this had happened naturally, out of the blue. It was a holiday but I called the doctor anyway and he ordered a blood test. I joked that we'd name our daughter Tequila since she was likely conceived on our vacation in Mexico.
I went and had the test but didn't hear back until Tuesday morning. Tuesday morning I took another test and it was lighter, which indicated to me that something was wrong, it should have been getting darker. I got the call later that morning, the numbers came back low. My HCG was 25 and my progesterone 10.9. They put me on Progesterone in Oil shots and scheduled more blood work for Wednesday (today).
I had the test today and got the call, HCG has dropped to 9 and progesterone was up to 18.8 from the supplements.
I'm in the process of miscarrying the pregnancy. I barely even knew it existed and now its going to be gone. I'm trying to look on the bright side that we went from completely infertile to a natural pregnancy. That is really amazing.
Digital tests require an HCG of 50 to register pregnant but later that same day a blood test showed 25 and 48 hours later 9, that is a pretty fast drop.
Based on my last period I am 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant today.
I was taking 200mg oral progesterone from 10dpo. Yesterday added 50mg progesterone in oil injection and 2 100mg endometrium suppositories. I'm supposed to stop all progesterone and wait for my period to start.
It's been a rollercoaster ride of emotions this week.
