Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Praying for zero tomorrow

Went for f/u bloodwork again this morning and am just praying for zero HCG levels tomorrow morning.  Really don't want to go back for more blood draws (the room always seems to be filled with happy pregnany ladies when I go), and really don't want a D&C.

Guess I will know more tomorrow...

How long did it take most of you to get back to pre-preg level readings?

Re: Praying for zero tomorrow

  • I miscarried the weekend of April 7. My last beta was on April 23 and it was at a 4, which is considered a negative. So around two an a half weeks for me. Sorry about your loss.

  • FX for you that they have come down.  My levels took longer than that--about 3 1/2 weeks each time, but my losses were later.  Everyone is different at any rate.

    If you do need more testing, maybe it is worth asking if you can go to a different place to get the draws done?  For example, my PCP is in the same building as my OB office and the entire hospital uses the same lab.  So I often would just get my lab slips from my OB and then go over to my PCP's office and have their phlebotomist do the draw.  It saved me that super stressful waiting room experience.

  • Oh, that is a great idea!  She has a small office, but I bet there are other medical offices in there or I could go to my PCP.

  • For my 2nd m/c, the doctor didn't measure my hcg, but I had a negative HPT 2 weeks after my D&C and started my period shortly after.
  • 6ish weeks. i actually got my period between 13 and 6. i didnt have to test after that bc my cycle came.

    DD1 born 5/24/10.

    Missed M/C at 14 wks Feb 2012.

    DD2 born 5/14/13.

    Missed M/C at 9 wks July 2015.

    Expecting someone new 4/17/17.
  • I'm one of those "weird" women who actually had a normal cycle my first month of pregnancy so they can't go by that.  I had my cycle already this month but was still testing positive on HPTs and still measuring in the 300s so I don't even know what is going on with my body at this point.

    Just want this process to be over with...
