    To me this may sound like an ectopic (sorry to scare you!) i would be getting this followed up with a scan as soon as possible, however if you experiance any pain, ANY PAIN! i would go straight to emergency and get them to run sone test. In fact i would get it checked tonight, but having been there before and not knowing it is scary, i hope for you that it is not the case and that maybe you lost a twin and the other is now growing nicely. It is hard to saw without a medical dix

    Thanks ladies. I have had Ovary pain which had me in ED a week ago but the scan showed the corpus letheum on the opposite side to where the pain was so they were sure it wasn't an ectopic then. With an ectopic is it common for HCG to go down then go back up? I thought it was a slow rise not a drop then a rise again. Also do you bleed with an ectopic like you have m/c but haven't really? I am not going to rush of tonight but I know something is not right. for this to be over soon.

    Emmy with an ectopic pregnancy the levels can do funny things... However with no pain that's a good sign - however as the others have said the pain can commence at any stage and you need to get medical help if you do experience any pain.

    There are some rare things that can cause this - sometimes if some placental tissue is left behind this can continue to grow and thus the HCG rise will occur.

    As Loula said the happiest of outcomes is that there was two in there and one has held on tight.

    You do need to have repeat bloods and a repeat u/s. I hope you can get to your care provider tomorrow... Big hugs my love.

    My ectopic was 9 weeks (backpacking in Morocco!) and i had no idea! no idea that i was even pg, although looking back it was clear with my BB! i went for a routine PCOS scan on my return to UK before moving to Melb to have up to date info for my new guynie and they discovered it! i had normal af and no pain (or no more then usual!) i had emergency surgery straigh away.

    Hopeing yours is a more positive outcome

    I believ you can O from one side and use the other tube, not common but possible, did they find a sac? or check your tubes, if you levels were only 60/70 then you would not expect to 'see' anything so soon.

    Let us know how you get on hun, thinking of you tomorrow

    They said they could see what looked like an empty sac in my uterus but also said it could be something else as lots of things on the endometrium can come up looking the same. They said they couldn't see my tubes and normally they only see them if there is a problem with them or one of them.
