Feeling pretty down right now. I just got my second HCG results back and they aren’t anywhere near where I thought they’d be. I hear doubling every 72 hours can be okay, but I have a bad feeling about this. I had a miscarriage back in September of last year (in which my HCG was actually very high) and it crippled me. I haven’t gotten as emotionally invested in this pregnancy as a result but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t extremely disappointed.
Date of first beta hCG: 2/13 (4w6d)
First beta value: 135
Date of second beta hCG: 2/20 (6w0d)
Second beta value: 678
Results:
2 Day change = 58.6 % increase.
7.000000011574074 Day change = 402.2 % increase.
Doubling time = 3 days or 72.15 hours
UPDATE: I began bleeding red yesterday 2/23. I got my levels checked immediately and they had dropped to 611 so it’s official that this is my second loss. Wishing anyone reading this all the best wherever they’re at in their journey. I’m rooting for you.
