Im very sorry, Emelda. Essentially in a 'normal' pregnancy the HCG level should be doubling- tripling every 2-3 days, Im guessing that's why the GP is saying it 'wasn't looking good'.
My first pregnancy was very similar. TTC for 5 years finally got a BFP, HCG at 5- 5.5ish weeks was 160, 4 days later it was still 160. It then started rising but not as fast as it should have been. I eventually required a D&C. I'm not saying that is definately what is happening with you, just that my story is similar
Ring your Dr tomorrow, have a chat and maybe another blood test to confirm what is going on.
Will definitely speak with my GP tomorrow and request another blood test. I know for sure that I am going to miscarry. I just feel it. I just hope it happens quickly. Might ask for the D&C after the next blood tests just to speed things up. Emotionally I don't think I can handle a long drawn out process.
Lilydust - it makes me feel a little better to see in your signature that you have gone on to have a little one. Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

mostly just be kind to yourself - I found that I was in a mild state of stress and grief for a few weeks - as it was just so hard to come to terms with - finally getting pregnant, only for it to be over
I'm so sorry to hear of your heartache Emelda. I went through an early MC last year and it was the most painful experience losing something that we wanted so badly. Please let me know if you ever need someone to talk to or a shoulder to cry on.
Ah hun, what a difficult situation to be in. I too m/c my first pg and it was gut-wrenching. I have gone on since then to have a beautiful little boy. I really hope your next BT shows a dramatic rise. Either way, we're all here to support you.
