Positive test after miscarriage

I found out i was pregnant the 2nd week in August. My doctor did a quanative because I have had several miscarriages before. My quanative came back at 5,400 and the doctor ordered a trans-vag sonogram. We saw a yolk sac on the sono. On 09/06/07 I went to the hospital with bleeding and period like cramps. They did a quanative and it showed my numbers to be at 3,800. They also did a trans-vag sono again and they saw nothing. Since the miscarriage I have still had all the symptoms of pregnancy (nausa, frequent urination, ect) and figured that my system is just kind of out of whack. I felt misrable yesterday so I looked on the internet and found that it is possible to lose a twin. My doctor did not check my quanatives again because of my previous miscarriages and just ruled it as a Full Spont Miscarriage. I took two home pregnancy test last night and they came back positive. My doctor wants to have me come in for a quanative, but Iam leaving for vacation today. He says thats he's not sure what is going on. Can someone tell me if this is possible? Could the HPT be right?

My levels for hgc at 5 weeks were over 5,800! I am wondering now if i could ahve been pregnant with twins. I am still having symptoms of pregnancy, and it has been over 7 weeks since my mc. A girl I work with had a mc a few years back and thought that she was no longer pregnant. Turns out she still was and had mc'd a twin (her little girl is 9 now)! My levels still show I'm pregnant and all hpt's are coming up positive, so I am going in for a sono in two weeks if I am still getting a positive result. Never heard of this before but I researched on the net today and looks like it has happened to many people before!

I'm not sure, I'm still waiting for the office to call me back with what the Dr. says, I happened to call them right when the fax came in so they gave me the numbers but said she'd follow up with me and let me know what he says and when to come back.

Hey! if anyone tells you it looks like theres a chance for twins, be sure to let me know right away. because thats what my numbers at. and we're only a few days apart. just kidding, i think your numbers are great! stop worrying so much! stress isn't good! thats what my numbers are and the doctor said they looked great. i don't have to go anymore for blood work, thank god! do you have to go again? i think its a singleton.

I just got my numbers hcg is 2270, progesterone 28.50, to me they seem really high. Should I be concerned that it's more than one??

I just called the office, results aren't in yet. I'll keep you posted as soon as I hear anything. Thanks for all your information. I think if they would give me an u/s I'd feel better just to know that s/thing was actually growing even if it doesn't have a heartbeat.

Keep me posted today. my doctor called and said she wants me to go in for a transvaginal us next week. i guess to see exactly how far i am. i really don't want to because its gonna do nothing but worry me. i think it will be way to early to detect a heartbeat. i don't think this worrying ever comes to an end. keep in touch with me , its neat to find someone thats due the same time as me. Let me know when you hear something today!
