El had to go in for a blood test on Saturday to check her progesterone level. It was 56 (up from 40 the previous Monday!), so they said for her to drop down to one pessary a day and to come back on Monday for a repeat test.
On Monday, we got up and headed back in for another blood test. El called for the results that afternoon and it was 80! This is good...this means that the placenta is taking over and doing what it's supposed to do!
She goes back in on Saturday for another blood test...and if that looks good, she'll be able to come off the progesterone altogether because the placenta will be producing enough to sustain the pregnancy.
All going well so far.
Except for the morning sickness...which is not restricted to mornings at all. :(
