levels

I have had two recent miscarriages and just found I am pregnant again. When I asked my dr. about checking levels, he said it wasn't worth it until I was further along. Has anyone been told this before? Should I insist on it?

I would probably insist. I found out that I was pregnant when I was 3 weeks. My doctor said the same thing and had me wait until I was 4 weeks to get tested. My levels were pretty high.

I would insist, if for no other reason than peace of mind. After having a miscarriage, any reassurance you can get that the pregnancy is progessing normally is so helpful. Good luck.

It actually makes far more sense to do them earlier than later.

When were your miscarriages? If your issue wasn't something like progesterone or an ectopic - betas aren't always done even with prior loss.

I would insist.  I spotted alot in the beginning and I had my levels checked multiple times, I was so glad that I did. The baby was fine but it really made me feel better.  Having so much bloodwork done was how we fingured out that my Progesterone was low which is what was causing the spotting.
