@auggiefrog: I looked at your post where you gave your history and I would recommend asking your ob or re to check your progesterone. I'm not sure why you had such early losses, but if it's because of low progesterone, you can do something for that. You might just need to be an advocate and push for the test..

@AmeliaBedilia: @FaithFertility: @NorthStar: Thank You ladies!
@NorthStar: I will push to have it tested. I know she will do betas at 6 weeks, so I plan to call late next week if all is well to schedule the first one, or whatever I need to do, and then I will ask about having it tested. I'm also going to ask for my progesterone to be tested, but if any one has an article I could reference please post it for me. If I start spotting again, like I did during my first pregnancy, I might see if I can get tested a little earlier from my OB, and if not I might just go to my PCP for the tests. I'm also eating banana's and might add a few more foods that naturally boast my progesterone. Nothing different this month. I had been taking Fertilaid and FertilOv for the past few months, so I am not sure if they 'helped' at all. I'm not sure if it was the CoQ10 or the acupuncture, but I suspect one of those was my biggest help.

@auggiefrog: Congrats!! So hope this is a sticky bean. I do think you should push for progesterone testing and supplementation if necessary. Unfortunately, I don't think there have been any research studies published on the matter, which is why doctors are still sometimes reluctant to prescribe. That said, I've heard a ton of anecdotal evidence that progesterone helps, and it certainly doesn't hurt! I thought this article was interesting: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2692055/Can-taking-simple-hormone-prevent-heartache-miscarriage.html

@Crystal: @AMommyThang: @sslm: @LoveHope: @delight: @ms.line: Thanks ladies.
@delight: For me it was easier to wait, I've had at least two early CP's in the past three cycles. I didn't want to see the lines get lighter, and I wanted an extra week to not know for sure.
@ms.line: Thank you for the article. I want to go with some ammunition this time!
