I've never heard of an HCG spike before AF
and I just googled it quickly and couldn't find anything about it. Pretty sure it's not a thing. I agree with the others...sounds like it's time for a new doc.
Shante, how exciting, my growth scan is Friday too!
Can't wait to hear about yours. I am hoping we hit 5 lbs this week...4 weeks ago he was somewhere just over 3 lbs so that would be on track I think. I know 5 is still tiny baby size, but it seems like some NB things (diapers, maybe carseat?) start there so it's a good milestone
So glad to hear PE is staying away from you too. Such great news
the average time from diagnosis to delivery is 2 weeks, so just one more week and we both have a good chance of making it to term even if we do end up with it. Sorry about the swelling, were your other kids born in late summer/early fall? I know the heat is increasing swelling for a lot of people.
Beeba, I can see what you mean, but honestly I have no idea since I have no experience with such early scans. Since you hope it's not twins, though, I hope so too. It's funny though, I was convinced I was carrying twins for a week or two at first, and I actually thought it would be kind of nice to have 2 kids in one go...more efficient that way
