Stepping down Prednisone

This weekend I start stepping down the prednisone.  I'm very happy about this.  Maybe I will lose the moonpie face.  :)

My steps are:

Current dose is 20mg/day

9 Weeks - 17.5mg

9+6 - 15mg

10+3 - 12.5mg

11+1 - 10mg

12 weeks - 5mg

13 weeks - 5mg EOD

14 weeks - off


So, it's a slow process.

I will also stop the E2V at 12 weeks.  Cannot wait!

Around 12 weeks, I will start weening off the progesterone too.  

8+2

Heart rate of 168 and measuring perfectly on track. 

Time for something good to happen in my life. I hope this is it. 

HB of 118

Measuring on track. Yay!

12,510

Had my hcg drawn last night in advance of today's appointment.  It is 12,510.  Which is a doubling time of 45 hours and right on track.

Hope that means good things at today's appointment.  Hope we see a heartbeat and a baby measuring right on track.  I think there is 1 in there.  Let's hope I'm right.

6 Weeks

Viability scan on Tuesday. So nervous.
