    Blood tests

    Hi Ladies,

    Just feeling a little depressed and scared so may need a few hugs!

    So question is, I had a blood test done at 11dpo to confirm pregnancy (last wednesday), do you think the same medical centre would do another test for me tomorrow to confirm that my HCG has increased nicely?

    At the moment I am only 4wks and time just seems soo slow!!!! I just want to reach 12weeks to do my scan.

    I just really want this bub to be very sticky thats all.

    Thanks in advance!

    Yep, they probably would, knowing you are a LTTTC'er. I am not shy about telling GP's what I want from them. Best of luck hun.

    Am sure they would, and it can't hurt to ask.

    Good luck (and congrats again!).

    Lots and lots of for you. The 12 week mark must seem so far away.
    I also agree that you should ask for another blood test, if you feel that you will be comforted by this.
    All the best xx

    I agree, can't hurt to ask and I can't see why you would be refused. I also asked for an early scan, around 6-7 weeks just to make sure everything was fine. My gp was happy to refer me and called it a 'dating scan' so I could claim it on Medicare.

    Good luck, and hope time flies by for you xx

    Fabulous numbers!

    As for the mega nervous, I think unfortunately that's par for the course with us LTTTCers but be reassured by those great results and if you feel you need more blood tests or scans then don't be afraid to ask. And post away any time you feel the need, there are plenty of us who know exactly what you're going through xx
