Hi ladies! So i have a few questions. I've been pregnant once before but didn't are it very far at all. My levels got to 2200 and then went back down. I was 6 weeks pregnant. Now, I don't know how far along I am. I got a blood test done the 13th of November and my hcg was 2. I had blood work done this past Monday and my levels are 54,000. I have an US on Wednesday. I'm excited. Is this a normal range considering a month ago it was 2 and a negative pregnancy test? Also, I feel hungry every 2 to 3 hours. And have had horrible MS. Any tips or relation to any of this? Thank you!
Re: Hcg levels and hunger
^Normal hCG by week. If your doctor was concerned, they would have said something.
As far as morning sickness, the search function on here will give you much more than I ever could, it's been asked so many time and so many people have given great responses.
As far as being hungry every few hours who knows ? Could be pregnancy or you need to drink more water.
When you are thirsty sometimes its easy to confuse that with being hungry. Drink a glass of water and if you are still hungry after then you are legit needing food/ nutrients not hydration. ( my doc tells patients this)
Also use the search function and you will see there are many women who are going through the same stuff.
And saying that someone's answer wasn't helpful is the fastest way to make frienemies, when what you want here is a strong group of ladies who you can turn to. I'd suggest choosing your words wisely from here on out, but that's just me.
Happy thoughts for a smooth pregnancy.
It is better to refer to a doctor than give potential false hope to an excited mom.
Like @jonesl12 said "normal" is relative because everyone's hcg levels are different--which I'm assuming why @Bigboobsmcgee said no one would know, you would need to speak to a doctor, because everyone's experience would be different.
That being said, I hope you since have received good news from your doctor about your levels and possible pregnancy!
I'm totally on board with @jonesl12 and @Sgoldberg247 re using search function for morning sickness queries. It gets asked a lot.
Good luck.
