I had a routine blood draw yesterday, and got results this morning. I'm not quite sure what to make of them. My Dr's office and I never agree on dates - I have long cycles making me consistently one week behind average dates.
My bHCG was 6500 and Progesterone 18 at 23dpo (my dates) or 30dpo (their dates). If my dates are correct, I'm fine - even a little high. If their dates are correct, a little low. The progesterone is fine in any case. I go for another draw tomorrow.
I don't know why I get myself all wound up over these things... There should be a chicken emoticon.
Blessings,

 it's hard when there's any doubt.. just remember your dates are for your particular situation.. they use the standard formula.

Prayers, Nissa! You definitely know your cycles better than they do, and Jodie's right - they're working on an average standard.
I'll pray that you have peace today...or that at least life keeps you busy enough that you don't have too much time to sit and be tempted to think about it! 
Update us tomorrow when you can!

I'm actually pretty giddy about this baby. I feel like a first-time mommy again. I don't know why.

Anyway, congratulations, Nissa! And I will send many prayers your way!

So after a glitch at the lab, they finally got back to me with the second set of numbers which showed that baby is going along fine and my dates are right on. Progesterone is up to 28.
I'm scheduled to see the hospital midwife April 1. I'll also be seeing my regular HB midwife sometime around week 12-14.
Phew...
Thanks so much for those prayers!
Blessings,
