Back.
This is a great site for checking up on hcg levels during early pregnancy, but for some reason the site is down at the moment - or my net is playing up - one of the two.

Good luck

no she didnt tell wat my hcg was? wat is bhcg? the bt she gave me to do she said are standard pregnancy tests... shes not being very informative.. i just feel very left in the dark..
basically shes told me to relax and get these bt's done then go back to see her on the 23rd september to look at those and book an ultrasound??

Im so angry and confused i just want to know that my levels are good..
Yeah the website is down atm, thanx tho <3 I could really use advice at this point and its nice to have some help understanding whats giong on

Kyra -
bhcg = beta hcg levels (same as what i am having tested)
I couldnt get onto that site either so i googled beta hcg levels - first option that came up was beta hcg levels in early pregnancy - so i clicked on that. One of the sites had the list of levels on there.
I think you should find another dr if you can. One with compassion would be good.
Yes, it is very early days - like me. But at least if you have your levels checked you will know if they are going up every 48 hrs.

Kyra - absolutely, find a new doc you feel comfortable with but...unfortunately, don't be surprised if you don't get the regular bt etc as docs very rarely, if ever, take a mc and the resultant feelings seriously until you have lost 2-3 bubs.
But, saying that, you can get a great doc who is very supportive and willing to help. hcg levels in early preg can be decieving as they vary greatly.
I know you are stressed and upset but for yourself, your body and bub you need to try to stress less. Do you know other girls around the area that you can ask for a referral to a doc?
hope you find someone soon.
AFM: I'm pretty certain I am out of the race but....like we all say...its not over till RB shows her ugly face. really want to test but don't want to go buy one...have 30 or more at home....doing 'be patient, be patient' mantra.
Got a day off work today. Spent a bit over two hours at the train station with no trains running cause of an electricity outage. Got a friend to pick me up, went to pub, had a vodka and put $5 in pokies
I'm going to really miss my V and Mother drinks when i am utd. (I can't drink anymore after Fri nite)
Look after yourselves lovely ladies...anyone tested recently and have good news for us?
What chickybabe said. Bhcg is your 'beta HCG' levels - 'quantitive' levels. This test is what they ask for to ensure the numbers are increasing as they should.
Maybe give the clinic a call and ask to speak to your doctor to ask, or get the receptionist to tell you what it was? You have every right to know, and knowing what it was with those bloods will help you determine what the bhcg should be.
I'd DEFINATELY go find another doctor!!! No offence, but your current GP sounds like a jerk, and hardly knows correct practise.
Where are you? I've just put a topic in the GP Recommendations part of this Forum looking for a good one on the sunny coast - maybe do a callout for one in your area (if there isn't already a thread on your area)?
If you want any more info PM me. Thinking of you, and am sure eveything is fine! xx
Sending patience & UTD vibes your way!~

thanx <3 see id be happy if i even knew what my hcg levels WERE from the blood test.. i wouldda been aboput 4 and a half weeks when it got dne, but the chart is no gud to me atm till i know what i got at least.. DH has been very supportive.. he booked me in with a diff doc tomorow morning and suggested we ask her to ring the pathology to get my results faxed then maybe get another BT done to get a bhcg.. good plan i think.. Hes so fantastic. i dnt kno where id be without him!
He also told me even tho she shouldda told me the levels.. she probably didnt becuz they are fine and told me to try not to stress. Hes cooking tea tonight and once boos in bed we're going to cuddle up together and watch scrubs (his words exactly) hehe <3
Thanku so much for everyones help! chickybabe tinaR and LadyR <3 thanku thanku thanku
And ur right tina, i shouldnt be stressing right now.. its just so hard when im so confused lol
Ladyr (and anyone else) feel free to add me to FB im kinda close to where u live (well kinda same state and within driving distance anywho) Kyra wolfe is my fb name too and my pic is me and a guy with a yellow wall behind us (our yellow walls hehe)
tty all soon.. Ill try to explain harder to the next doc that i want to KNOW my number so i can have peace of mind and so i can stress less, and hopefully she will get that
Kyra
ps -=- sorry ive been so self centred in my posts recenly.. will do persies tomorow i prmise <3<3<3
You're very lucky to have such a supportive husband, they really make all the difference don't they..?
That's right. Even call the Dr and ask them what it was - your well within your rights to ask/know.
Hon, don't apologise for being 'self centred', you're totally not. Just worried. It's perfectly normal. We all have these days, and being preggers you're well within your rights to be! (emotional) haha.

Tina fantastic news i hope this is the one you get to take home god know's you deserve it.
AFM- I'm feeling a bit like i don't belong here anymore as i'm not actively ttc i can't really talk about BDing or ovulating ect i can only talk about genetic testing, PGD IVF all the injection's follicle's ect all the waiting and you girl's are all on the same page with M/C and being scared to of it happening again everyone is getting there BFP's while i can't even try yet so i have been on two PGD IVF buddy group's and thought i might post in there a bit more as they are all going through the same thing. I am going to give you girl's a rest from me i just want to say it has been a real help to me these last few month's since i lost abbi and i don't think i would be as sane as i am right now if it wasn't for you girl's, i hope you all get your beautiful babie's and i will pop in from time to time to check up on you and if you need me for anything you can PM me or find me in the assisted conception thread under IVF with PGD.
