sorry I'm just not gettin back but after the u/s I was so upset I didn't wanna talk about it and I decided to keep my self busy preparing for my Scentsy party.
I had the u/s done and was told the fetus measured 5-6 wks but there was no heartbeat. I was told to expect miscarriage I'm devasted but trying to keep faith. I go in on Wed to have more blood drawn to see where my levels are. If they are going up then I'll have another u/s done.
Thanks ladies. Don't know what it means but I went pee and there's brown stuff! now I'm really worried. I called the nurse and she said to relax til my US tomorrow but if I start bleeding or cramping to go the er! Oh goodness! I'm so worried!
I'm not a doctor, either, but Victoria01 is right as far as I know.
This is from Babymed.com: As your pregnancy develops, the increase slows down significantly. Between 1,200 and 6,000 mIU/ml serum, the hCG usually takes about 72-96 hours to double, and above 6,000 mIU/ml, the hCG often takes over four or more days to double. It makes little sense to follow the hCG values above 6,000 mIU/ml as at this point the increase is normally slower and not related to how well the pregnancy is doing.
Good luck with your ultrasound!
Thank you so much!! I wanna stay postive but don't wanna get my hopes up!! I go for and u/s in the morning and will update when I get home!!
I am not a doctor, but I have always heard that with numbers that high, they don't usually double. The fact that they are increasing is a very good sign. Try to relax, which I know is easier said than done, and keep us posted after the ultrasound. Good luck!
