Early pregnancy problems

So I got my positive test(s) a week ago today! CB digital said 1-2 weeks.

On Friday I did another CB digital test as I had it and why not? Still 1-2 weeks.

At this point, working out from my LMP I would've been 5+5 so a little worried as to why it wasn't going up again. Did ANOTHER Sunday and it still said 1-2.

So yesterday I called my EPAU who took bloods and said that if levels were high enough then they would scan me today, if not, they would re-test in 48 hours.

My hCG level is 374 - I'm currently meant to be 6+2.

I have extremely irregular periods so could that have something to do with it?

Or should I expect the worst?

I've had no bleeding or pain.

Please help!

Xx

Do you temp and use OPK's? If so do you know when you ovulated. If you don't and you are just going off of your LMP - I would not be surprise if you just ovulated later then you thought. They should do another HCG test to see if your levels are doubling properly, that would be a much better indicator of what is going on.

I don't test or even know what would be a sign of ovulation - so I have no clue! And I bought tests to start this month, would you believe it?!
I'm hoping it's a case of late ovulation, I really am. Thank you for the reply!

As the other reply indicated you most likely ovulated lasted than expected. How are you feeling now ? X

I feel a bit better - I'm not 100% expecting the worst! Feel nauseous 90% of the time, don't know if that's just nerves though?
48 hour hCG test tonight. Xx

Just back. Results in the AM.
So I feel much better about the majority of stuff ('symptoms' etc) but the level is still getting me down. She told me it was low and had a look of sympathy on her face. I feel like she knows something.
I still have a tiny bit of hope but the realist in me is expecting the worst. :(

Hi!
I tried to post the other day but it wouldn't let me.
We've had a 'good rise'. It went from 374 to 1746.
So naturally I'm still concerned it's ectopic but allowing myself to get excited.
3rd blood test tonight :)
