hCg test @ 12dpo not good! Close to tears!!

[Erised]

I hate how much doctors seem to be putting on these silly numbers. Non of my GPs nor midwives have ever tested my hCG, and I'm quite glad they didn't. It seems to cause ladies nothing but stress.

Honestly, not every pregnancy is text book. In fact, on AVERAGE it doubles every day ... that means that there's a lot of people who double less quickly, and a lot who double quicker.

Your husband is completely right. Try to not let it get to you *hugs*

In my head I calculated your HCG should be roughly 500 7 days later, then I got to page 4 and saw that is was 470 so that sounds great!

Mine took almost 3 days to double with Sophie, my midwife was happy with it doubling anywhere between 48-72 hours. Sophie is now very much healthy and almost 1, so I say you're doing great!

Had my new bloods taken yesterday, doctor hopes if he rings the hospital directly on Monday we may get the results early! On a plus note.. my progesterone @ 7dpo was 33.5 and on 12dpo was 66, so that looks good! I am staying positive, but its going to be a long weekend... sigh

Hi Hun, any news?

I yay got my result from 19dpo so that's 7 days and nearly frightend myself silly when I got it over the phn. It came back at 475. According to hcg tables I am really low. I worked myself into a right state till my DF worked it as to the sites yelling is it should increase by 60% every 2 days. He did the calculations and 475 from 35.7 is perfect! Stil trying to calm down from my fright!

Yaaaaay! That sounds great, I'm so happy for you!!! I had more bloods done today and my levels have dropped from 42 last week to 30 so I'm out and it's a waiting game now. Good luck with everything xxxx
