05-5-2008 - I'm praying everything is okay...

My mood while writing this blog: scared

---

I got a call Friday, before I left work, from my doctor's office letting me know that my progesterone level was very low. I had no clue what this meant, and called to speak with my doctor (rather than the nurse) about it right after I found out. She told me that she likes to see the progesterone level around 16 at this point (5 weeks), and mine was at 5. She called in a prescription for Prometrium (Progesterone suppliment) and told me to take 2 a day and to call if I started bleeding. I took one pill Friday night, and then woke up Saturday morning and I had spotting. It was brownish in color. I continued to bleed lightly all weekend and am still bleeding today (Monday). It has been both brownish in color and also red, but not heavy...which makes me hope that things might still be okay. I have had a few very small clots too, which I know is a sign of miscarriage. My fiance is out of town right now and I hate that I am having to go through this by myself. He still seems to think that everything is okay, but I have to admit that I am very worried. I have had two normal pregnancies with no problem, and I don't understand what could be causing this. I called the doctor this morning and they want me to come in in an hour and do another ultrasound. I pray to God that everything is somehow still okay. I am very scared though. I have read a bunch of information online and while it is said that many women go on to have healthy babies after experiencing bleeding, I still keep seeing the warning signs of miscarriage that I am experiencing. I know we will be okay--whatever the outcome is, but we were both so happy to be pregnant and so looking forward to having this baby. I just don't know what to think right now. I am just praying that everything is okay. I will update later when I find out. Please, if you read this, say a prayer for me.
