Ok, where do I start?!
Bfp on Thursday. 2 quite faint, but definately there, IC type strip test things.
Then did a FR Thursday afternoon and again definately positive, but not as strong as I've had in past pgs.
Did the other FR in the box on fri am, still a definate positive.
Called EPAU yesterday and as I'm unsure of dates (conceived either30/5 or 11/6) they said they would do blood work before organising early scan.
So got my results last night. Hcg 28.:cry:
I did a cb digi yesterday afternoon and got 1-2 weeks result.
I'm not stupid I know it's highly unlikely that I would get a positive result 6-7 dpo, meaning I probably ov'd and conceived around the 30/5 so that would mean my hcg is far too low to be a healthy pg.
I don't know if I can do this again.
I have to get my blood done again tomorrow to see which direction my hcg is going in.

HCG LEVELS NOW 62- MORE THAN DOUBLED IN 48 HOURS.
EPAU CALLING TOMORROW TO LET ME KNOW THE NEXT STEP.
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR ADVICE. I'M NOW A CALM MUM TO BE!

Not sure what I'm asking you ladies really.
Has anyone had a similar experience with the best possible outcome?
Do you think I'll get my happy ever after this time?
Please be honest. I would rather honest opinions than false hope.
Think I just need some support.
 
According to this chart they are perfectly fine

https://www.fertilityhelper.net/fertility_faq.html

Try not to worry to much some peoples levels are not as high to start with :hugs:
 
Oh my god, really? I'm going to check out the chart now. Thank you. It's so hard not to worry. X
 
Yes it says they can be as low as 19 5weeks from LMP. Yes i know its hard not to worry but if they match up to them then at least that a good positive x
 
Very reassuring chart. Thank you very much. Suppose I will just have to wait until I get my results tomorrow.
I'm generally very pesamistic as a person, but I can't argue with facts and at the moment the fact is I'm pregnant within "normal" hcg range for my dates.
Thank you again. The EPAU wouldn't give me proper answers about acceptable ranges for my dates. She also asked if the pg was planned before answering my questions about the results. Makes me wonder what she says to people who aren't happy with their pg?!
 
Yes exactly they should answer the questions you want to know, and the end of the day its your baby and no hers if you want to know then they should tell you. I hope your levels come back well. I was quite pesemistic in this pregnancy and even bleed 3 times, very worring after a MC but everything has turned out ok. And no you cant argue with the medical facts :hugs:
 
See that's another reassuring thing, no bleeding or anything. I'm just driving myself crazy. I should have faith in my tiny little poppy seed!
 
The main thin is not how low they are, but if they double in 48-72 hrs. I also think it is not unheard of to get BFP at 7dpo, esp if line was faint. x
 
aww there is nothing wrong with ringing them i found my 6week scan so reasuring
 
My first hcg was 30 and then 185... I was really worried.. BUT as long as they are double every 48 hours you should be fine. When is your next hcg draw?? Keep us posted:hugs:

Thats really interesting for me. I was hoping to hear 60 odd tomorrow as my magic number, but 30-185?! That's some jump!
Do you mind me asking how many dpo were you when your hcg read 30?
Also (so rude!), but what made you have your bloods done? Like I say, mine was to determine rough dates for an early scan due to 2 past mc's.
Next blood test 2pm-ish tomorrow. Not sure if I'll get results tomorrow though due to it being a Sunday.

I'll definately update you all.

I know, I just keep thinking if I'd waited for another few weeks I would just be plodding along quite happily.
Just want the results....NOW!!! :wacko:
 
:hugs: Congratulations !

DO NOT worry about your hcg level being so low at this stage. My first one was on the 24th May (I was about 3 weeks 6 days) and it was 25miu. I freaked out completely and my DR was very very negative and refused to test me again for 2 whole weeks. So I spent a fortnight pretty much expecting to miscarry (if I was even pregnant in the first place). I kept taking hpts and they stayed positive - that was what kept me going.

Anyway, 14 days later I got my second hcg and it was 12877 !! You can see from my sig that I am indeed pregnant. I had an us on Wednesday and saw the little heartbeat too.

It's a difficult time, I know, but there is nothing wrong with 28 !
 
i tested @ 11 weeks and lines where still faint, the numbers dont matter most important thing is that they double every 48 hours and if you have an issue with doubeling speak to your doc about using progesterone
 
Well had my bloods drawn. Get results in 21 minutes!!
Do you know, if it wasn't for my stupid intervention and being advised by EPAU to have an early scan in next pg I'd just be happily plodding along now, enjoying every second. Instead I'm a nervous wreck!
Ah well, 19 minutes now.
 
Any Update MissingBubs? I've been thinking about you this weekend.
xx
