Hello Ladies. Looking for some advice. I've posted on another thread but here is the story as I just got my blood work back. Went in to have US done on Tues. Sac measured 7 weeks but no fetal pole. HCG level was 22,240 on Tuesday and today it was 33,515. P hormone is 17.3. Can someone please explain to me what this means? I have another US appointment scheduled for Tues the 22nd. Thank you so much. Hope I can finally get some sleep this weekend.
@BabyBump2 is correct about the plateauing of hcg increase. Adding my levels to increase our statistical power: (since lmp- o date uncertain) 4w 0d - 117 4w 2d - 250 5w 1d - 2500
Wow everyone's numbers are so high! I tested at 14dpo and got a positive test and immediately went to our fertility clinic for our first beta. It came back at 30 and progesterone is at 17. My RE is happy with the numbers and we have our second draw on Monday. I'm worried at how low they are but I may have just had a late implantation (I had a dip at 5dpo and at 10dpo).

Got my numbers back from my fourth draw. At 6+0, I'm at 32,000. At 5+0, it was about 12,400. That's okay, right? My nurse said it's normal for it to plateau at these levels, but I just want more reassurance that's normal!

@GoogleMD Thank you for the encouragement. I just got my betas back and they went from 30 to 135! I feel so relieved.

i just got my first beta back today! i am 4w4d and 16 dpo (i ovulate late) and it was 669. My RE said my number was good and doesnt want to do a second but I wanted to make sure it was doubling correctly! i have of course been driving myself crazy with research to see if this is normal and it looks like it is. my ultrasound next week cant come soon enough!
