is scheduled for Thursday May 5th. If everything looks great we will probably come out with our pregnancy. The only reason we plan too is because we have very large families. We're afraid people will find out (no matter if we say "please don't say anything") and we want to be the ones sharing the news! That's the fun part right!?! Soooo, just a couple more days and we get to see our little bean. We are beyond excited.
I forgot to update my 3rd round of bloodwork. The HCG was 803 and the progesterone was 19 something. Then last week I had my 4th round of bloodwork. The HCG was 7374 and my progesterone was 16 something....yup it went down. Anything above 15 is "good" and is what the dr's are looking for. It made me nervous to see it dropping and it being around the cut off line so they told me I can get put on progesterone suppositories. I immediately agreed and went to get my prescription the next day. They are little wax capsules and they look like torpedoes lol. You insert them vaginally and its supposed to help the baby survive until the placenta takes over in the 10-12 week range. I've had no side effects from them other than i've been getting a full nights sleep. A side effect is drowsiness (which is why you are supposed to take them 30 minutes before bed time) and I guess since I take it before bed time it makes me sleep the whole night. I'm not complaining. :) Although, I do wake up with a full bladder. I'm sure these full nights of sleep aren't going to last long so I'm not going to celebrate too soon.
