I did my blood work this afternoon. hcg and progesterone. They'll call tomorrow with the progesterone levels and if they're low, we'll talk about supplementing. And I go back on Thursday for the second hcg test. I'm trying not to feel too anxious!

Just remember if you have to supplement your progesterone that the suppositories are proven to be absorbed much better than the pills.

Thanks for letting me know about the suppositories!

My hcg was 37.5, next test is Thursday morning. My progesterone was 9.84 so I got the suppositories. The nurse told me I'll be using them until 12 weeks, with weekly labs and I can't have sex while I'm taking them! I've done some googling and it seems like most people aren't given any restrictions on sex. What's up with that?
