hi HCG levels

in Pregnant after 35
HI.. I'm 5 weeks and 5 days pregnant and I just got a call from the doctors that my level is 10,700... she said this was REALLY high and scheduled and ultra-sound for Monday... I know I have my dates right because I had a full period the month before and took several tests... so I'm not sure what to think of this....?

    Congratulations! However, HCG levels are not the best indicator of multiples. In my sister's two pregnancies, her levels were triple the normal range. She had two healthy singletons. My HCG levels were in the normal range. You can only confirm multiples with an ultrasound.

    Could be twins, but it's a good sign. Better to have high betas than low! GL!

    I know this must be scary and confusing- good luck with your ultrasound.  I hope they will be able to give you some good news and put your mind at ease.  Like some ppl said, HCG levels can greatly vary, so try to think positive and take a deep breath.  Hugs.
