My numbers did exactly what they were suppose too and it was e/p. So SOMETIMES...this is not ALWAYS true. Thus why is important to be aware of everything.

Isn't it awesome to get words of wisdom from the "Big Kahuna" himself?!! So if your HCG is doubling at a normal rate, you may be stressing yourself out without need. Try to keep calm and relax. I will say a prayer for you! Louise
You can use the HCG Calculator. When I enter your data, it shows the following: First HCG Level: 32 mIU/mL Second HCG Level: 120 mIU/mL Days Between Tests: 5 days Doubling Time: 62.93 hours
This is a normal doubling time. The HCG levels can be checked twice a week rather than every 2 days. At this rate of increase, your HCG level will be likely to reach 1500 by the end of next week.

Hello...... I dont post much at all but I know some know my name from the few posts I have wrote. I had a TR baby boy, Isaiah, 18 months ago. I found out 1 1/2 weeks ago,by complete surprise that I am pregnant again. We are thinking ectopic pregnancy. I have had five blood draws now! My first one on 5/5 was only 32 and my 4th one on 5/10 was only 120. I had a lot of bleeding last weekend the same time I found out I was pregnant. I have had 2 ultrasounds done now but of course they cant see anything as my numbers are so low. I had another draw today but one know until tomorrow, but Im guessing they will not double as my other draws havent at all. I am suppose to be 5 weeks today. I dont understand. My question is how do they find an ectopic pregnancy. Am I to continue to go for blood draws every 48 hours. I am so bruised from the last 5 and I thought by now my numbers would have been much much higher. I am so emotionally stressed right now. At this rate I could have 5 more draws before my levels reach 1500. I dont know how much more I can take of this at this time. If anyone can offer anything please do so because I am at a lost right now on what to do. i dont want to do anything until they know where the baby is for sure, but it is so emotionally draining I dont know how much more I can possibly take. Thanks for any words or advice or encouragement.
