I miscarried at 9 weeks but it stopped growing at 7 weeks. I’m pregnant again with my rainbow baby. We heard the heartbeat but still scared of another miscarriage, My doctor also gave me progesterone to take and I was wondering the reason for that??

Question

Answer

I had the same thing happen. Stopped growing at 7 weeks and carried till 8+5 without knowing. 
This time I'm on progesterone for the just in case , I'm not sure if it's working but so far this pregnancy has been going a lot smoother. Just a LOT more symptoms and they are bad 🤢

Answer

I had the almost the same story. Stopped growing at 6-7 weeks and miscarried at almost 10wks. We discussed progesterone, but would only do it if my levels were low. I got blood tests weekly for 3wks to watch my hcg and progesterone, they were normal. Maybe you can ask to see the results. Have you had your levels checked yet? Sometimes doctors are script happy 😒

Answer

The progesterone is to help sustain the pregnancy if your progesterone level goes low
