This is so familiar to me. Before I finnally had mt daughter 5 years ago I had 2 miscarriges and both because of low or very little levels of pegesterone. I lost the first one (about 10 weeks) and they did alot of tests. The second on I lost about 8 weeks. by the time the 3rd on rolled we were ready and I started to take pogesterone pills every day of the first trimester. She was an miracle to us. I was told if I had went to far into the first term I would have lost her too. Hang tight and all I can say is try to plan it so you can start right away. If you dont understand the pegerterone levels and what they do to the fetus please let me know I would be glad to explain. Good Luck Jill
