I am pregnant!

I had a VSG on 12/7/11. My highest weight was 269.8 and my lowest for about 2 days was 152 I usually hover around 155-157. I was on the Nuvaring birth control up until this past month. being that I have not conceived on my own in over nine years we figured it would take some time to get pregnant so we will start now with out any intervention. ( I have PCOS) I had my daughter almost 5 1/2 years ago with fertility treatments. So before going off the ring I went to meet the Dr. I would like to use and he decided to see if I ovulated this month. So I went in on the 21st day of my cycle and had my blood drawn. They called the next day to say I had not ovulated and that my progestron was very low so when I'm ready to start clomid I should come in. PS When 32 days past since my last period I decided it was time to take a PG test. That was yesterday and it showed up positive. I walked around in total shock yesterday and not completely believing it I took another one this morning and it is also positive so i guess I really have something blossoming in me. I'm very nervous about the low progestron and I have an appointment for tomorrow morning.

I have a lot of questions running around my head. Like can I continue my regular exercise? Should I be taking additional vitamins? I have a phobia of dogs should I avoid them at all costs so as not to get so frightened? I'm sure I have more I just need to clear my head.

Congratulations! I had almost the same experience with my 1st pregnancy. I was doing treatments for some time, went to do my typical 21 day draw, and showed low progesterone and no ovulation. When I got to about cycle day 40 and no period I called to get the prescription for Provera to start test and they told be to take a HPT just in case. I was mad but did it and low and behold pregnant! I was in shock so called for a blood test. Initially they said that it may just be left over hormones from the fertility meds but sure enough it was not. I had low progesterone as well early in pregnancy so did suppository supplements twice a day until I was 14 weeks and in the end had a happy and healthy baby boy who is now 5 yrs old. With my 2nd pregnancy, this one now, no treatment, no low progesterone, nothing....lol

Thank you so much! This time around I wanted to try naturally so I haven't taken any fertility treatments since my 5 year old. I never had an issue with progestroen before so it makes me nervous. I'll see tomorrow when I go in.

THanks again

Did you conceive while u were still on the ring or did you stop using it for a month?

 I noticed u said u went to the DR before going off the ring and he decided to draw your blood then u found out you were pregnant.

Congrats!

No I did not conceive while on the ring. It was my first month off the ring. I went to meet the Dr before trying to conceive and then the first month off the ring I had blood drawn on day 21 to check my progestrone to see if I ovulated and they told me I hadn't ovulated but now 12 days later I'm pregnant. So, I guess I did ovulate.

thanks for clearing that up..im currently on the ring (this is my 2nd month ) and i became terrified thinking u got preg while on it still..  My apologies.

I wish you a happy and healthy 9m !!!

Congrats!!

Stop and take a deep breath!!

No you should not stop exercising.   What vitamins are you currently taking?? What is the folic acid in your vitamin?  I take the recommended chewables and didn't need to add anything until the end of the 2nd trimester when my iron dropped.  No getting frightened will not hurt the baby.
