Slow Rising HCG
So Friday Qualitative test was inconclusive. Monday HCG was 15 and today's was 20. Any reason it would rise so slowly? With DS 17months I didn't even get a positive HPT until after 6 weeks (I'm 4-5 weeks now).
I had same experience twice; 5/2016 and 2/2017. Both times ended up miscarriage ??. First time pregnancy (5/16), my hCG was 161, 210, 272, 504, something in that line. 6wks scan - only egg yolk seen, no baby fetus no heartbeat. Dr told me to prepare for ER miscarry and it happened at 8 wks when I was working. Went to ER room immediately. Quite painful, stayed there for 5hrs. Next day came back in to have a D&C done. After that, been on oxytocin for couple days to make sure my uterus excrete all of tissue and blood. That med caused me so much pain and discomfort. Overall I think It was not necessary to go to ER, it was not that bad to see Er doctor but it was my first time so I was little freaked out.
2/2017, second pregnancy - I learned so much from the first time. My signs and symptoms at 2 weeks wait and early BFP kind of telling me that this pregnancy wouldn’t be good. My positive line was so fade even after 5 days late. I can tell that my hCG won’t be good. And it was not good, 16-21-51 that was it, I didn’t test more after that. I knew right away soon I’ll bled and I did at 6 weeks. Didn’t go to ER. It was just a late heavy period. The first pregnancy I passed a solid tissue that looked like a sac.
I started my period. I had a chemical pregnancy. Thank you ladies for all of your love and support and prayers that this month we get a BFP with our rainbow baby ?
