Okay I maybe having a mini freak out - my beta hcg rose to 3581 from 1251! That’s a 150% increase. My doctor wanted a 60-70% increase and I’m now freaking out as she said such a big increase could indicate twins - please tell me such a big increase could also just be one very strong baby!!!!
I'm so jealous! But hcg levels have no indication of how many baby's xOkay I maybe having a mini freak out - my beta hcg rose to 3581 from 1251! That’s a 150% increase.

Yes I’ve moved my early scan forward by 2 days to the 2nd Jan when I’ll be 6+2. The doctor who phoned said they were also going to speak to the hospital and try and get me an early nhs scan. Do you really think my 8DPO line was that strong?To be honest that was my first thought when you had such a strong line at 8dpo could be twinsare you having a early scan?

Sometimes hcg is just higher and not anything to do with twins. My friend who had twins had lower hcg than I did with a singleton.. now this pregnancy I went from 1474 to 3465 in 48 hours.. just a singleton! The exact same spot with my first was 705 lolOkay I maybe having a mini freak out - my beta hcg rose to 3581 from 1251! That’s a 150% increase.

What Amazon tests are you using? I was trying to order but couldn’t decide and they all had some negative reviews!Oh no! Haha my dh would prefer me to wait until af but Im too impatient. Amazon ordered in bulk ic last month so thankfully stocked here. Just the waiting game now. Hopefully af stays away for you so you can test! When are you due?
I think I would freak out with twins! But also good to know that it’s not always twins.Well it
Might be twins! Don’t freak out - you’ll manage if it is.
However, I had off the charts hcg with my last pregnancy, rising fast and super high and it was just one baby. It did however give me HG and I spent weeks on bed rest and lost 14% of my tiny body weight :/
