hcg monitoring

[Maruschke]

Just curious how many BB ladies monitor their hcg through early pregnancy, at least twice? [Not just a qualitative, but series of quantatative betas.]

Wish I could add a poll!

I am tempted not to next pregnancy.

Yes I always have done as I had a miscarriage for my first pregnancy. I always have 3 quantative BTs done to check my HCG levels.

Goodluck with yours xxx

Yes I did but only because I had an unexpected miscarriage and didn't want to be shocked, again by a missed miscarriage.... But I only did it for three weeks every few days.... In the end I looked like a drug addict coz they would always bruise me......

My last one was at 8 weeks and then an ultrasound at 9- to confirm all was good .....

I was going to initially, as there was a history of m/c, but when my first test came back around the 5-6 week mark at 38,000, I was no longer worried.

We did two in my Secomd pregnancy because of the miscarriage of one twin , but after the second result wasn't ver good, we went to US... and a lot of them when I had a big bleed.

I did with DD because I had had a m/c right before I fell pregnant with her and I felt like I needed some kind of information to make me feel everything was ok in there! But this time I didn't. I didn't see the point, I felt that if something was going to go wrong then I unfortunately couldn't do anything about it.

I have but only with this pregnancy due to past ectopic pregnancies and the increased risk of it happening again. I had 4 BTS for BHCG at 12DPO, 14DPO, 17DPO AND 19DPO (the first two were done by the IVF clinic and the second 2 the emergency department) I'd do the same next time also.
