My temp today was 98.24 down from 98.74. My test is still positive and i'm not spotting. my ovusoft software said I should call my doctor for a possible m/c or low progesterone. I'm going to call them as soon as they open. Does anyone have any experience with this?


Update: Well my progesterone is fine. They didnt' give me a number, and I didn't ask. I'm a nurse and I will obsess over lab values, so I was actually hoping to not have to do this whole song and dance. The quant was positive but low, (what do they expect at 12 dpo?), so they want me to go for another draw in tomorrow morning. I'm not concerned anymore, just don't like calling back and forth with doctors. My FRER is darker and i have morning sickness. That's all the confirmation I need, but I will appease my doctor. Considering she's delivering patients tomorrow and friday the office is closed, i'm guessing i wont get the new results till monday. I wish I could have just kept my mouth shut. I'm not happy about having doctors compare my quant numbers. I just wanted an 'ok you're pregnant, that's it' type deal. But can't complain too much. Because i'm still pregnant

I have no idea. I havent been temping, nor did I get a progesterone level checked. Not spotting is a good sign. I hope things go ok.

I thought it was a shorter luteal phase that pointed to low progesterone?

I was feeling more relaxed, but then I got a call from the doctor. She said that's bad news and sent me for blood work and progesterone suppositories. Of course no one carries the danged suppositories so I'm going to be running around tomorrow to get them. That and waiting by the phone for my results. Then we'll see if the doctor wants to see me. Bah I hate this already!

I'm just happy I noticed early. Hopefully it's something progesterone can fix. I'll know when the numbers come back tomororw.

I really hope it was just a fluke! Did you sleep with your mouth open? A window open? Did you throw off the covers or have on the AC? I really hope the progesterone works! GL and T&P's!

I got my blood drawn in the around 3 this afternoon. I'm really hoping I'll get a call and they'll say the numbers are perfect and this was all just nonsense! I feel really pregnant!

I have my suppositories ordered from IVPcare, and they are pretty cheap. They are compounded and honestly I'm very used to it now. Grab some softcups at Walmart, and you wont get leakage, plus it keeps the progesterone where its supposed to be

I'm surprised they arent just ordering them for you-- I get them within 12 hours (They ship fast)
