Doctor Appointment
I just got home from my first appointment and I'm a little nervous. They did a sonogram and couldn't find anything they said I must be too early to see anything. But they kept asking if I had any spotting or bleeding which I haven't. The doctor said they will do a beta today and call me tomorrow and I might have to go back for another one. I made an appointment for next wek for another sonogram where if the betas are progressing they will see something. Hopefully...but now I'm nervous!!
How many weeks should you be? Maybe it's just too early. Fingers crossed for you!
Fingers crossed that it was just too early. How many weeks are you?
If I go by ovulation date I'm 5 weeks, if I go by LMP I am 5 weeks 4 days. Unless I ovulated a day later but I know the only time this cycle we DTD was December 30 so it couldn't have been to much later than that. I'm trying not to freak out until we get the beta back but it's hard not to!
Does it matter that when I had the sonogram my bladder had already started to fill up? Grasping at straws...

Depending on the type of sonogram it might have played a factor. I know when I was pregnant with DS and had a really full bladder they had to do an internal scan to see anything. I am praying that it is just too early and that all is perfectly fine.
I bet it was too soon. 5 weeks is awfully early. The blood tests should give you some more definitive answers. Good luck!

With this pregnancy I started out with super low numbers and then had an ultrasound at 5 weeks that showed nothing at all. But my numbers were rising appropriately regardless of being low, and we wen't back in for an ultrasound at 6 weeks and saw a baby with a beating heart. My Dr. wouldn't even consider me pregnant until my 3rd beta came back at 61 @ 14dpo. I pray that everything is going well for you and that your bean is just being a slow poke like mine was.
I've heard often that before 6 weeks they can't see anything and that getting an u/s with a full bladder prevents from seeing anything. You should be fine but GL.
it's still early to tell. I wouldn't worry until there is a reason... which there isn't! Just wait for you little one to come out of hidding!

HCG 536
Progesterone 6.9
They are going to redraw on Thursday. They have already called in a RX for Progesterone into my pharmacy just to be safe. They said since it took so long they are treating me like I have had multiple losses. So excited to here these numbers!!

Great hcg! So glad they're putting you on progesterone. It made all the difference for me. This time my progesterone was 39 bc of the supplement. Have you started it yet? Beware, it makes me really loopy. Lol
Do you have your numbers from today, or will you hear tomorrow? Good luck!

I will get my numbers today, the office closes at noon so hopefully early!! I am still having symptoms and this morning the nausea is really bad. I hope it's a good sign!!
Fingers crossed!!! Keep us posted
Do you know your HCG numbers? My dr said he likes to wait to do a U/S when your HCG is in the 6000-8000 range cause there is more of a chance of actually seeing something. He told me I was too early to get one right now and there wouldn't be anything to see I'm 4weeks and 5 days so just a few days behind you.
for you KUP
ETA: Just saw your HCG numbers I'm going with you are early...can't wait to see what the 2nd draw brings

Thank you!! I am so excited!!
Did they recheck your progesterone? Did you start taking it yet?

I started taking it they didn't give me the new level for that. She said the doctor hadn't looked at my numbers but told her to tell me my HCG and to come in on Monday. He didn't have time today since their office closes early on Friday's.
Well, hopefully they will monitor it for you. You need a super sticky bean after your LOOOOOOOONG wait for this! Your hcg is looking great. I know that has to bring you relief
