    What were your HCG levels like?

    Just for a bit of fun What were your HCG levels like (if you know them), and at what date? What were they like with one bub, or twins?

    I had my test done at 5w5d, so 26DPO, and my HCG was 38,000 Bring on Monday's scan!

    WOAH - I recall at 10 wks being 53,000 with DD.

    Hmmm, maybe you're having baby 1 AND 2 .

    Wow - that seems high!

    Mine were:
    (21DPO/ 4wk6d): Beta HCG = 6,209
    (26DPO/ 5wk4d): Beta HCG = 22,983
    (32DPO/ 6wk3d): Beta HCG = 53,000
    (42DPO/ 7wk5d): Beta HCG = 91,749

    I've been madly googling for you And everyone basically says its not the specific number that counts, you've gotta have at least 2 readings to find out how fast you're doubling to get a better idea. Or a scan showing 2 bubs, but its apparently easy to miss multiples this early on. One particular girl I just read about went from 8000 to 90,000 in 2 weeks, but was only singleton. Sounds huge, but it's only a doubling rate of 96 hours.

    Are you getting another test done, or just the scan?

    I was going to skip the other blood test tbh, and just go the scan. If my levels aren't rising properly, there's not a lot I can do, kwim, so I'd rather just be as I am now, only worrying mildly lol. I'm really looking forward to the scan, one or two (or three ) I don't mind, so long as there's a healthy bub in there!

    Mine have been high in both pregnancies. This time at 7 weeks they were 62,000 and I think with DD they were 128,000 or something at 8 wks. A very good sign PZ!!!!

    Thanks for all your replies ladies! It's very interesting how the levels really differ, huh. Like Heaven, woah, and they were single pregs too!

    OMG, impressive!!! Triplets even?! LOL!

    Mine were no where near that level at the same stage. I actually needed a few tests to ensure they were rising as they were so low. My first lot of results were around 60 for memory and that was at 4+2 (I think). Hence why they wanted to check again. They continued to rise at the 'correct' rate so my doctor was satisfied.

    Keike's right - it's the doubling time that counts. When I got my 4th lot I freaked because I thought it wasn't doubling fast enough. I didn't realise that after 6000, the doubling time reduces.

    They never tested mine with either.
    Maybe you are farther along that you think?

    Definately not further along...very clear O date, big temp rises and consistant with my LP (have a 12 day LP and tested bfp on 11dpo). DF hopes just one and a girl, but if it's two he wants boy/girl twins Oooh can't wait for a scan!

    Yay! My kind of thread.. Just to add to my obsessing haha

    This is the first pg I've had bloods done (Cept for my m/c)

    3wk+4 (11dpo) 125
    4wk+6 (20dpo) 7,137

    If I've done my sums right that's a doubling rate of every 36hrs or so.. Which is actually normal. So I'm not stressing too much. Haha. Am booking in my scan next week.

    Can't wait for your scan results pz!
