Hello

I'm sorry to hear your journey has been long and difficult. I know the wait is hard - I've been there - but you will know more on Monday based on the HCG levels. As for this weekend try and distract yourself as best you can x

Just wanted to say I’m in a similar boat - HCG was 31 on 12dp5dt (Thursday) with faint lines. Also have light bleeding. Have to go Monday for bloods to see what’s happening. Keeping everything crossed for you! X

Hi—please hang in there; it’s not the result you were hoping for, but it does not mean everything is lost.

At 9dp5d, my HCG was even worst at a measly 12, and my clinic was quite negative, calling the test « inconclusive ». It went on to triple in 48h, but it was still really low. I was fully expecting a miscarriage, but continued the progesterone, and ended up doing four HCG tests, until the clinic was satisfied that it kept evolving in the right direction. I am now 16w3d and I’ve done 4 scans, and the little one is growing and moving around like a future gymnast.

I googled low HCG levels like crazy when it happened, and was mostly reading negative stories; it gave me so much anxiety that I still can’t quite believe my pregnancy is real. I hope this positive story gives you a bit of hope while you wait. Deep breaths, one step at the time, one hour at the time.

Hey, oh bless you. It’s hell isn’t it?!

We had another hcg Test yesterday which was 10dp5dt and the score was 74 so they’re happy that it had doubled every 2 days. They want to see me again on Wednesday for a repeat as it is still low but we are going in the right direction.

I really hope you get a good outcome. When have you got another test?

Are you 10 or 13dp5dt? That's very promising that it's more than doubled!

Mine was 42 on 10dp5dt, waiting to do another test tomorrow morning (12dpt).. worried sick!
