Hi all! Pregnant for the second time through IVF. Had a son via IVF in 2017. We have had three blood tests since our 5 day frozen transfer, and my numbers are much higher than they were with our son. We transferred two (really highly graded) embryos and I was just wondering if we might be pregnant with twins. Here are my levels..
When I was pregnant with my twins almost 10 years ago, my HCG was higher than normal but not crazy high. For me...it was the progesterone that was way higher and told me something was up. Normal pregnancies prior had only been around 15-20, but with my twins, it was like 56!! I know now in the FET's we are taking progesterone, so it probably can't be reliable, but you will really only know once you have an U/S. I know my first one at 6wks, they took forever to talk and it was making me nervous...I finally blurted out, What...is there more than one in there or something? and she said...shweeew....I was trying to find a way to tell you!! LOL!
