Nondoubling hcg after week and a half

My hcg started out on a really great trend, its doubling time was 1.09 days (increased 3.5x over 2 days. Then over the course of a week and a half afterwards the average doubling time plummeted to 3.14 days and at 6 weeks I was only around 10000.

Anyone go through this and continue with a healthy full term pregnancy? We did IVF and genetic testing on the embryo so at least know we don’t have a chromosomal abnormality that can lead to miscarriage. But I know other genetic issues are still fair game.

I’m just so scared because I’ve had a miscarriage like this before (though the genetic testing on that tissue came up chromosomally abnormal, trisomy 11).

“During the first four to six weeks of pregnancy, hCG levels double every two days. After that, it may take three to four days to double until the sixth week.”

No need to worry I guess and after 5-6 weeks you should go for scans and check for heartbeats instead of tracking hcg levels.

I thought that meant to the first x weeks after finding out you’re pregnant. So at 6 weeks of pregnancy, your gestational age would be 8 weeks.

No, all pregnancy counts are gestational age. Everyone finds out at different times so the standard is counting from LMP when referring to X weeks of pregnancy.

Sometimes you will see more explanations, such as 4-5 weeks of pregnancy = the usual time most women find out that they are pregnant because of a missed period

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you

If this is your second child are you/have you given your eldest a present “from baby”

If so what did you give them because I am stuckkkkkkk, due next week so really need to get a wriggle on to get sorted 😂
