Starting To Wean

I get to start weaning of the meds. So exciting, a little scared but way more excited. Each step closer to feeling more "normal" during this pregnancy makes me very happy. Both of my numbers went up a lot from the last time I had them checked and I really think now that the spotting was from low progesterone.

Here are the numbers:
Estradiol: 1088 (instead of 4 patches every other day, 3 patches every other day)
Progesterone: 23 (instead of 3 suppositories daily, down to 2) This is the one I am most excited about!

I get me levels checked again next Thursday to make sure we can continue with the weaning process.

  9. Yey!! The suppositories were my fav to stop too. It will be awesome once you don't have to do anything anymore. Tape or insert!
