Pregnant after a Loss

HCG Levels.... 5 weeks 4 days

Ok, I'm sure you've answered this 100 times, but what was everyones hcg levels at 5 to 6 weeks.  Mine just came back at.... 620, and my second draw is today.  And the nurse at my RE's office never sounds happy or sad, she's very monitone so you can't tell what she's thinking which is probably a good thing.  My last mc was 4 weeks 2 days and it was 576.  I hate that on americanpergnancy website normal is like 18 to 7350.

  • I don't remember mine (and I don't know if I had any done at that time), but the number is not the important part, it's the doubling.  I know it is hard, but try not to stress out too much about 1 number.

  • My betas were done at 5w5d and 6w0d and were around 11,000 and 13,000.  The range is so huge though that as long as they're doubling or increasing, I wouldn't worry too much.  Mine obviously weren't doubling but so far so good.  Everyone is different so don't read too much into other people's numbers :)  I know, easier said than done!

     I wont read too much into it, I learned my lesson w/ the last 2 pergnancies.  I now have an it is what it is mind set this time.  I am a very factual person, I like numbers and statistics, although I understand they don't mean everything.

    This, it isn't easy, but you will only drive yourself nuts analyzing that one number.  Good luck with Beta#2!

  • Mine are in my sig, but my levels were very high early on, so they have been high for each reading. 

    620 does sound low, but if it doubles then you are golden.  Maybe it was a late implanter and/or you Oed a day later then you thought? 

    I hope your next level is super high and reassuring!

     Thanks, it's "funny" hubby and i only had sex once unprotected, so I pretty much know the time it was, but no not when i o'd OR implanted.  I get to have it drawn in one hour, hopefully get the results today...

  • I just wanted to say good luck with your second betas!  I'm kind of in the same boat, my numbers seem low but I did a second draw on Friday and should have the results back after 2 today, the waiting is awful!

    Do you know how many dpo you are? My 2nd beta at 19dpo was 635. Good luck! It is all about the number doubling, not where it starts.

     I'm guessing 24 DPO, as we stopped "trying" i wasnt' monitoring anything!  The only reason I knew the date of my LMP is because it started the day I went on vacation.
