Question

7 weeks preggie, bloated tummy, massive painful boobs. ultrasound and sonogram today. doctor says baby is too small and i need to have a hormone check. if its high thats a good sign if low then thats a bad sign. had sonogram last week too and he said it hasnt grown enough. i have no bleeding whatsover but i'm really worried and scared. what is this test.

Answer 1

Its a blood test to check your HCG levels. They measure what level you are at now and also measure if your levels are going up to monitor the growth and development of the baby. Sometimes they can also predict if you are going to misscary, but dont worry to much yet. You haven't even had the test.
