3RD DRAW!!!!!!!!

I want to start by saying all of you ladies are so incredibly helpful! I am so thankful that your all here! On Fri I was super frazzeled b/c my prog came back at 14, so I called and went on the oral supplement. Well, today my numbers came in at: (drum roll please) HCG: 4569 and Prog 17.4 and that it at 18dpo. (If you forgot and if you care to remember the previous friday I was at HCG of 892). I know that many of you have a higher prog number but my doctor insist that anything above 12 is normal and that he is only allowing me to go on the medicine b/c of I seem so stressed about it. He explained that he thinks for me this number is probably normal for me. I am going in to see him on Fri, but have another blood draw on Thurs. We both want an U/S but both me and my doc agree that if I didn't hear a heartbeat then I would be devasted. He actually said he would be worried that I would have a heart attack trying to wait another week if I DIDN't hear one this week so I have a feeling sometime next week whether the middle or end of next week we will give it a shot. I feel like I am on cloud nine today. By tomorrow all that worry will probably be back but for now I am going to enjoy it. I hope everyone of you is doing well and for those of you going through anything scary know that I am thinking and praying for all!

I had been reading from wonderful ladies who kept reporting Prog levels around 20, or that their doc wanted them above 20 and I was so scared. You have literally just made my day better. I was scared 17 was still a little low. It was like the icing on the cake. THANK YOU!
