bloodwork came back..... :-/
My beta was 22. I am going back on Saturday morning to get another set.
My Progesterone was 17. They want it higher than 20 so I have to start progesterone suppositories 2 x a day.
My TSH was 3.08. They want it below 2.5. So I also have to start taking levothyroxine.
I know it not horrible but its not great either. Anyone else have to take the regime?
TTC for 18 months. IUI #1 BFP= EDD 5/23/14. Progesterone Suppositories and Levothyroxine started. First U/S 9/27

Fingers crossed that it doubles! 13 DPO is still really early. At 16 DPO with twins I was only a tiny smidge over 100.
You get used to the Progesterone - I took them my whole first trimester. Gross and annoying for sure but at least it's not shots!

Congrats to my TTC buddies Amberley18 and tdmd09!
After 25 months- medicated cycles and a failed IUI- The most planned surprise baby ever is on his way!
However, I had to take Progesterone suppositories and I still have to take levothyroxine because my TSH levels were always between 3-4 until I started taking it.
It really wasn't/isn't too bad. I will admit that I was so done with the suppositories by the time 12 weeks came along and was SO glad to be able to stop taking it. The levothyroxine is a little bit of a pain because you can't eat for 30-60 minutes after you take it, and my doctor wants me to take it first thing in the morning. Which means I have to wait to eat anything for the day. This makes some people nauseated (luckily, I just get hungry, not nauseated).
Good luck! I hope everything turns out great and your betas more than double!
BFP #5: 3/25/2015: EDD: 12/8/2015.

Thanks ladies. I just pray that my betas double by Saturday. I'm feeling awfully sick tonight here at work, but I told DH I will take feeling horrible if it means he/she is settling in and getting comfy until May.
