Positive test low HCG

[Daxie24]

I took a test 12dp5dt and had a faint positive pregnancy test.

Had my bloods done at 13dp5dt and my Hcg was 177. My clinic said its a bit low and they needed to speak to my doctor. They have now said to repeat bloods 4 days later.

I feel ungrateful and that I should be happy that I got a positive test but I'm so scared it's going to be taken all away from us. I had a mmc in February at 8 weeks so just so scared.

Has anyone had any positive stories of having a low hcg initially and then climbing?

I took another test this morning at 15dp5dt and the line is darker and a definite positive but after a while the line is disappearing.

I was in exactly this place 9dp5dt 31; 11dp5dt 62; 15dp5dt 385. I cried when I got the last result and they said we’ll just now wait for the ultrasound. I have my viability scan tomorrow and it’s been a hard week. I’m in a FB group for pregnancy after IVF and these anxieties are very common particularly when betas start out low. x

I'm so glad it looks like everything is increasing for you! Best of luck for your scan tomorrow, sending lots of positive thoughts. I'll have a look at the other groups thanks x

Hi Daxie. Oh that is not so low. Fingers crossed you will see a good improvement when you next get tested. Thinking of you. Diane

Hiya. I haven't got any advice; just wishing you luck. X

My HCG on Friday has risen to 732 so a good start. Fingers crossed for my visibility scan on the 15th! 🤞
