I found out I was pregnant on 2007/09/10. The doctor estimated me to be at 5 1/2 weeks and I was scheduled for an ultrasound on 2007/09/20. My hcg levels went from 200 (2007/09/10) to 600 (2007/09/12) to 1500 (2007/09/14). At my ultrasound they could only see the sac and something they called the "yolk". The ultrasound doctor came in and said it was either earlier in the pregnancy than the had originally thought or I was going to miscarry. So I called my OB/GYN and he sent me for some bloodwork that day (2007/09/20). The results for my hcg were 9500. I am still freaking out because for the last 2 weeks I have had cramping (mild) and some blood. I only noticed the blood twice when wiping, however when I check myself I notice a brown or pink tinged blood inside me. You may wonder why I am freaking out so bad, but I have already had a miscarriage and it effected my mental health greatly. Does anyone have some answers or stories that could ease my worries??? I would really appreciate it! My questions are: 1. What are normal hcg levels? 2. Is it normal to continuously have blood? 3. Is it normal to have bouts of mild cramping and then nothing?

okay I know this really doesnt help or ease the mind much BUT STOP STRESSING! Thats not helping very much, I am not sure what normal hcg levels are sorry, but I do know that stressing isnt very good for you or a baby. I have known people to have their periods the entire time of pregnancy or for the first three months and it is somewhat normal to have cramping, I am surprised however that your doctor is not more concerned though, I would lay down in bed as much as possible with legs elevated on a pillow, break out the ben and jerrys and watch a movie. I know it is very painful mentally to have a miscarriage however, everytime you get pregnant it is easier to get pregnant the next time, I had one miscarrige and then two beautiful healthy babies one year apart. good luck, hopefully everything is okay.

i wish I could give you more reassurance. The bleeding , while not common, is normal. I have had spotting and cramping with all my babies. But I don;t know what to tell you about the ultrasound, except to have faith that everything will be OK. A loss is hard to take, and the next pregnancy after a loss you are on pins and needles the whole 9 months, waiting for something to go wrong. But your chances are good! Good luck and God bless.

Your HCG levels are good and have grown also good. I have had spot bleeding of and on for almost 2 weeks also very mild cramps. I had a scan at 8.3 wks (LMP date) The scan put me at 7.3 wks showed at yolk sac and a heart beating in a "peanut" This was 2weeks before I spotted. I Had a MC for my first pregnancy ( ive since had 2 kids) which started with spotting and a scan showed the fetus had died. So I paniced rang the midwife she got me to go for bloob test. HCG was good so she organised a scan this scan showed a fetus at 9.5 wks good heart rate and no reason for bleeding. I have now been spotting of and on for 2 wks often it only shows on the toilet paper is usually brown almost black very stringy. There was on one occasion bright red blood This was before last scan. Midwife said this could continue like this and we may never know why. she is not concerned as she has seen a number of women with simular bleeding go on to have healthy babies. told me to try to relax and unless the bleed becomes heavy ie a pad full in and hour then I are to go to hospital just to carry on as normal. I have another scan booked for 2 weeks. So with luck everything will be ok. With all of my children the scan showed them to be at least a week younger than my dates. this is becoz i ovulate late dnt worry too much about that. Email me if you want.

i'm pregnant with my 0.33 toddler. at first of this being pregnant, I had terrible era like cramps. It felt as though i became beginning any 2d! I had observed for greater or less 3 days, on and rancid, yet no AF..undesirable warm flashes and a bloody nostril, i knew i had gotten pregnant. i don't get bloody nostril whilst i'm no longer pregnant, ever. everybody is diverse nonetheless. So definite, being pregnant cramps maximum easily can sense like era cramps, or worse, in my case ! :-) desire this enables!!
