My doctor ordered a blood test after my first visit to him which showed very low levels and immediately put me on progesterone hormone treatments (supositories). Although my levels rose and a strong heart beat was heard at 7 weeks my baby's heart still stopped - I was told it was due to the hormones being so low in the beginning. Hope this helps you a little.

<<Thinking back now, the doc did not get any blood tests until the 14th week. He never did an original blood test except the HCG to determine if I was pregnant.......My question is, do you think a blood test should have been ordered when I was bleeding and could low progesterone have cause the heart to stop? I will see him on Monday but I want to be able to tell him my thoughts and findings....Thanks.....Gina AGAIN >>
