Question

Could i be losing my baby

I had my hcg blood drawn 3 days ago because i started bleeding Monday. Those results were 161. Today i had my second test done and those results were 182. The nurse said I'm probably having an early miscarriage. I'm supposed to be 6 weeks tomorrow and I'm only spotting when i wipe and it hasn't been daily just here and there. I also haven't had any cramps or low back pain like she said i would. I'm thinking maybe I'm still too early, earlier then they say. I'm trying to stay positive but I'm falling apart. Me and dh have been trying for over 2 years and i don't want our one successful try to end this way.

Its sad to hear that dear, its hard to disagree with nurse but my lil sis ahd the same thing (bleeding) when she conceived her twin boys we were worried either but it turned out that it is normal, some people do experience that during pregnancy. please dont fall apart yet try to stay positive bcoz the more you stress the more chances of loosing. we keep you in prayers. Baby dust to you.

the best thing you can do is keep yourself hydrated and rest for a couple days (drinking water can help keep early contractions away if you haven't been drinking enough).its a threatened miscarriage but it doesn't mean you will lose the baby for sure.some woman have light bleeding during their pregnancies for various reasons.i hope everything turns out okay for you and the baby!

So sorry for your discouraging news. Praying that the numbers in your blood tests are just an anomoly and all will be great from here on out.

Those numbers are not that promising. Even if you are earlier than you think your numbers should still be doubling, so that second beta should have been over 300. Keep the faith but be prepared for a possible m/c. Your numbers are not decreasing so that is still a good sign.

There's a chance you were pregnant with twins, but are losing one. That could account for the number not doubling. And sometimes these things just get off to a slow start. I assume they're having you come back in another day or so for another test? Fingers crossed for you!

I'm sorry sweety that you going thru such a terrible time.Based from the info l acquired from the ladies on this forum your levels are too low for 6weeks.They say every preg is diff but l would advise yu ask for a sonar to really see if there is a heart beat.I had the same problem but only led to a miscarriage.Bleeding is normal but its not a very good sign at all.I'm keeping fingers crossed for you and hope like the other post aluded that u cud be having twin preg and loosing 1one.Keep us posted
