No worries, LOL. It's tiny since I don't temp during AF. My cycle seems pretty much normal other than the spotting and the fact that my cycle is getting shorter (which may be caused by the spotting for so long). Hoping the thyroid labs done today will shed some light. It's sad that I'm hoping they find SOMETHING so that we can work on fixing it.

Is the thyroid responsible for progesterone? If not, I'll have to ask about whether that could be the issue. She suggested birth control pills to regulate the cycle but she knows that would defeat our purpose right now.

 

[Momof2TTC]

LVn- Oh my gosh, how scary. How is he doing? How are you holding up? I can't imagine losing 50% of my blood. Thank heavens you made it to the hospital on time.

 

[lucyoz34]

Momof2 yea the thyroid can affect progesterone production so it's worth ruling it out. I agree with you about the birth control! Last thing you want us to give your poor body something else to contend with when it's still trying to figure itself out! How long till you get your results?? Have you had the 21day progesterone test yet??

 

[Momof2TTC]

I'm not sure how many days it will take to get the results. I'll be harrassing the office next week for sure! I have not had any progesterone testing done yet. I only had the thyroid panel done. I didn't ask about progesterone when I was at the doc and she didn't mention it. I don't know much about it- I only know that I've read that low progesterone can cause spotting.

MOMOF2- I always use to get a day or two of spotting before AF, It can be very frustrating..I would totally ask to get your progesterone tested! Good luck! and welcome to our little group!

AFM- I go in tomorrow afternoon for an ultrasound. The doc wants to confirm my dating and check viability of my pregnancy..That word scares me!!! I'm nervous and excited at the same time! Please pray that my bean is ok!

Lvn hope you and your little prince are ok xxx

 

[LVnMommy]

He is doing ok they told me today to expect 4-5 weeks more stay. He has lost 6 ounces gained 2 then lost 2 . The feedings are the most difficult... I am pumping like a mad woman to get that breast milk to him!! I tried breast feeding yesterdat he is just too tiny and takes too much out of him! He is my precious miracle though. Please pray for my Maddix

 

[Momof2TTC]

Prayers for Maddix on the way!
