Any positive Slow Riser HCG stories to share? x-posted

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
1st HCG 288 (tues)
2nd hcg 467 (Thurs)
3rd hcg 494 (Sat)

(each 48h apart)



So they are still rising, but very, very slowly. The nurse said not to worry yet as they want to recheck on Monday. Don't worry...easier said than done! In a way I wish they weren't doing all this monitoring. With ds we didn't do this and I have no idea at what rate my levels rose. Any positive stories from slow risers you want to share?

I was going to suggest you look at Betabase.info but I cannot get it to open for me. How many weeks are you? That can effect your doubling times. I hope that your results today come back great!

Mine were 130, then 180 48 hrs later. The doc was pretty sure I was going to lose the baby. He put me on Crinone and a week later they were 12,000. My daughter is almost 14 months now! How did your appointment go?

So I am now 6w2d

My first was 288 last Tuesday then I have been monitored every 48h.

467

494

607

853

1104 today (6w2d)

I have pcos and my dating is according to my approx ovulation time.

I go back on Sunday (48h) for yet another hcg and an u/s.

I hope by then I will have some answers.  The doctor didn't seem too hopeful today...his concern is ectopic.  He said there are slow risers and then there are slooooow risers (that's me).  I have had absolutely no cramping or spotting and it feels to me like when pregnant with my son.  He said there could be a very small glimmer of hope because of this.   I am with a RE btw.

It looks like betabase is back up. You might put your numbers in there...

Thanks....I put my first and last in and it averaged out to being a 56.9% increase over 48h.
