1st Trimester

Miracle??

I have been in and out of the hospital with cramping. I haven't had any bleeding I am 5 w 2 d and last week my levels were barely rising but still were going up. Doctor called today and they Are more than doubling this week. Anyone know what this could be? They did an ultrasound last week and saw nothing but two corpus luteum cysts but said it was too early to see anything. I'm just so confused.

Re: Miracle??

  • Cramping is normal.
  • 4w is too early to see much on a u/s, 5w as well. There is honestly not much you can do but wait and if your numbers are doubling it's a good thing.

  • I felt like my period was going to start until about 20w into the pregnancy.

    Even if they offered an ultrasound to you now, it would probably not ease your mind one bit because A.) there's really nothing to see and B.) even if you did see "something", there wouldn't even be a heartbeat yet.

    Cramping wigged me out too but try to remember it can be a totally normal pregnancy symptom. If you're not bleeding, chances are all is well!

    I have heard it may vary from woman to woman when it comes to HCG levels, so congrats sounds like your little bean is sticky!
