    First ultrasound should show ... ???

    @jesusis4us It’s like, can’t we just be in a normal range instead of extremes? My last I was in beta hell where the first two were about 40 hour doubling, then the third went to 84 hour doubling and continued to rise slowly for weeks then ended in a MMC. On the one hand I’m glad my hcg is...

    First ultrasound should show ... ???

    @jesusis4us Thank you for sharing your betas, mine was 10000 at 5w2d and I had similar doubling times where mine started around 26 hr then at 42 hr the past week. I don’t get an ultrasound until next week at 7w2d because they wanted to be sure they should be able to see cardiac activity. I...

    I feel like I can't move on..

    @finallywoken87 I can relate from earlier in my current pregnancy. We found out the gender early and told family and friends at 12 weeks but didn’t want to have a gender reveal or any kind of “celebration” until much later in the pregnancy because it felt odd and too early. Finally at 35 weeks I...

    Forcing myself to wait for ultrasound until 7-8 weeks, but the waiting is torture

    @kathrineswitzer This is great advice. I waited until 7 weeks for my first ultrasound this pregnancy and told myself a lot of the same things. My betas and progesterone looked good, so I just watched for any concerning symptoms and told myself the fate was already determined and I could not do...

    How many miscarriages before you were able to conceive

    @deborahjoy429 I started trying at 35, though NTNP since 33. Took almost two years to get pregnant and it was a blighted ovum miscarriage. 4 cycles later I got pregnant again and it ended in a missed miscarriage which stopped developing at 6 weeks. We were working with a fertility clinic and...

    First time pregnant- NIPT all clear

    @sofarfromfaze Yay, so happy for your good news. I was stressed about mine too as I was just about to turn 39 at the time but mine came back all clear too!

    Had an endodontic procedure very early in first pregnancy, looking for reassurance (X-rays, local anesthesia w/ epi, sodium hypo, etc.)

    @mapleleafsnjesus Congratulations on your pregnancy! My OB says bite wing X-rays with lead apron are fine in early pregnancy. Dental procedures are safest during the second trimester so that’s when I had my fillings done and I’m probably going to have to get a crown soon also. Sorry you have to...

    HCG took 1 week to double between 6w4 and 7w4

    @borislav It has more to do with how high your numbers are than how far along. Mine was almost 120 hours doubling within the same range as yours and also had a healthy heartbeat of 148. Currently 13 weeks. Hoping baby keeps growing strong for you!
