hcg Baseline

[jenraejo]

I mc on February 13 this year and have recently found out that I am pregnant again. LMP start date was 05/02/15, I requested my beta levels to be checked and my initial is 247, I get re checked tomorrow morning for a comparison. I feel nervous... I know that my baseline is within range but can't help but feel impending doom... grr. Anyone else remember or know their 4 wk baseline and their comparison?

We are still early. .. 5 wks 5 days but labs look good and ultrasound is as expected. .we return in 3 wks for another Sonogram and Dr. Appt :) Gods got this one.. our due date is February 13th...the exact day that I miscarried with our last one... coincidence? I think not ;)

Good job jenraejo!! Glad you made it thru to doubling, i was also given progesterone tablets n shots first 2 months of preg bcz of having 2 mcs in the past. I can well imagine your excitement :-)

That is great I'm excited for you and that level is great mine was only ten even taking progesterone orally and I'm twenty weeks Friday half way there I now taking progesterone shots cause my first born was at 32 weeks

Boobs are sore...not books..lol

[jenraejo]

I forgot to mention in my initial post that I am on progesterone 200 mg capsules that I place vaginally at bedtime.  My progesterone level is 26.3 & my current hcg = 998! So I'm doubling now :)
247-440-998 I'm super excited that I had my first bout of sickness today and my books are sore...lol.. all positive signs :)

Still that's good..question have they check your progesterone level? I had previous miscarriage as well and I commented early of my levels started low but was doubling and I'm nineteen weeks I forgot to mention this time they check progesterone was low so I took medicine til I was twelve weeks to help sustain the pregnancy. I was never given an ultrasound til my levels were a thousand at least as doctor told me you can really see much until then.

Got results today for comparison... hcg=440. Not exactly double, should've been 494 or >, but the Dr said that's good..."close to double". Wants another level drawn today and then scheduled an ultrasound for next teusday. Continued prayers are appreciated!!

Thank you for the reply...I found reasssurance in it :)

Mine was only 34 at 4 weeks then 88 two days later I am now nineteen weeks doesn't matter where it starts just has to double

[jenraejo]

Im praying for higher levels tomorrow. The hcg chart is SOO vague. The ranges are insane soo wide. Gues all that matters is if mine have doubled since yesterday. Include us in prayers.. good mojo, vibes or anything positive.

Yes, mine was 627 on 4 weeks test. So far i m on week 21 by the grace of God but had 2 mcs in the past. One was last year n had a lower hcg level then. Dont know was that the cause of mc or what but i mcied on week 8th twice.
