Pregnancy Info HOME

I am in same boat as alot of you. I just did IVF (after 2 ectopic pregnancies before). So we are positive on the conception date. We put two fertilized eggs in after they were 5 days old. 18 days later, they said my hcg was too low. It was 357. They wanted it over 1000. However, it was doubling an avg of every 3 days. 2 days later, they did an u/s and saw nothing. HCG was 745. It more than dbld. 2 days later another u/s. Saw nothing, but hcg at 1463. More than dbld again. They said, since they saw nothing on u/s, I should have surgery next day for a dnc and take my tubes out while they were in there, because they are partially blocked anyway and they feared this may be ectopic. I agreed, but demanded another u/s before surgery, in case the sac showed up. I kept reading that often you cant see anything on u/s till your numbers reach a certain level. So.......next day before surgery, they saw a sac. It was empty, but it was there. I just knew it....I felt it. So the surgery was cancelled and they still said it was probably a bad pregnancy. I go back in tomorrow (monday) to check again. Anyone else in this exact same boat??
