Official testing day and first blood test done

[sarahJE]

Hi all,

So relieved to have the official test over with today. We had already done two pregnancy tests at home, so knew it would be positive when doing the urine test at the clinic. That definitely helped us cope with the nerves.

First blood test results back in too... 751, which the nurse said was good, but didn’t commit to saying if it was normal/high. Last time I got to this stage on our first full cycle of IVF (which ended in miscarriage), it was 83, so I’m astounded by the difference! We had two frozen embryos transferred, so could it be twins?

What is everyone else’s experiences?

Congratulations on your BFP! How many days past transfer are you?

[sarahJE in reply to HopeTTC18]

12 days past 5 day frozen embryo transfer. Two embryos transferred.

My HCG was at 7000 on 16dpt and I’m just having the one, so hard to say yet. Are you having bloods repeated or waiting until your scan?

[sarahJE in reply to HopeTTC18]

7000! Wow! Ok so there really is a huge range then. I’ll be having a repeat blood test next Tuesday, so guess I’ve just got to be patient and not overthink it. Main thing is to see those levels rise. I’m about 4weeks today, so not time for a scan yet.

Aww congratulations! Even though you’d prepared yourself must still be a nerve wracking day so good to have it over with.

I can’t offer any advice on the figures but from reading other people’s stories on here the range does seem to be huge! 751 sounds very pregnant to me! 🥳 x

Wow dats great congratulation and it may or may not be twins. Finger cross

Congratulations hon, looking good. I had a level over 4000 at 14dpt and it turned out to only be the one. I think it varies hugely and I suppose it depends on when implantation occurred. 750 sounds like a great healthy figure though - you'll just have to wait for the scan to see if it's double trouble xxx

Hi Sarah! Great news. I got my bfp a few weeks ago and on 12dp5dt my HCG was 798! I also transferred 2 but we saw just one little seahorse (it really did look like a seahorse!) on our scan. Let us know how your appointment goes next week!

[sarahJE]

Thank you everyone for your messages of support! Will keep you posted xxx

Congratulations 😀 hcg range is huge. You've got off to a good start. Numbers doubling every 48hrs is important. Wishing you all the best.

That’s an excellent number and it looks like twins :)! Double trouble on the way. Wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months
