    Try not to worry yet! I had the same issues with my first pregnancy except I also had bleeding and DS is a healthy 11 month old now. They gave me progesterone pills and I took those until I was out of my first trimester. Sending positive vibes your way! Praying for good news in the coming weeks.
  • Thank you! I hope so too!!

    Sending positive thoughts your way. I'm sorry you're going through such a scary situation.  
  • Sorry you're in this situation! I don't have much to say about the progesterone, but I don't think your HGC is all that bad. It's supposed to double every 2-3 days, so I'd say you might be on schedule.

  • I am sorry that you are going through this ! I was on progesterone my last pregnancy and I am on it this pregnancy (orally at night before bed) . My daughter will be two in August ! I hope that your next set of numbers are reassuring for you.

  • Went back for more blood today and again my levels rose but did not double. Mon I was 876, Wed I was at 1159 and today they were 1805. I have a ultrasound wed. I dunno what to think.
  • I know it's hard not to worry but I have a few friends that didn't double but still continued to rise and they carried full term. Fx!
  • Thank you!! I'm trying to be optimistic! ❤️
  • Thinking of you! Hope your u/s goes well Wednesday!

  • I'm in the same position. My HCG isn't doubling but it's rising. I go on Monday for an ultrasound. Baby dust to you!!!
  • Good luck to you! Keep us posted!!
  • How far along are you? What have your numbers been and your progesterone?
  • Hey Christine, I just saw your post.

    My betas were:
    2 (not pregnant level)
    96 hours later: 49- progesterone 10
    48 hours later: 172
    48 hours later: 972 (that was Monday)

    So I'm glad to see they are rising but they aren't following a consistent pattern. I go on Friday for an ultrasound but the doc didn't give me much hope.

    How are you doing? Any update?
  • @Christine6714 don't worry as long as they are rising and as you can see progesterone pills and creams they have lots of ways to make them rise like special diets.. So don't worry and stay positive sending love to you and just keep calm you already passed the hard one you are pregnant and your lil baby will stick into your woom woom :) stay calm and positive!
  • Good luck! Thoughts are with you.
