UPDATE
8dpo beta was 5
9dpo beta was 19

So a doubling time of 6.5 hours or so (there were 23 hours between tests)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




My HCG was 5. So as little pregnant as you can get. I just don't get how if in my blood it's 5 it's showing up on pregnancy tests at home. The only explanation is that HCG leaves you blood faster than your urine and it's on it's way down not up. Because 5 wouldn't give multiple positive HPTs.

I have the paperwork to go and get two more blood draws whenever I want so I think I will go tomorrow to see if it's gone up at all and then if it has gone up I'll go Tuesday also.


I don't see how this isn't going to be my third loss in row.

Sweetheart give the bloodwork another shot, no pun intended, go from there... don't jump to any conclusions yet because it's possible to be many things. (from it being so early being small numbers even in doubling aren't much, and so on... so get your draws on monday and wednesday, then let see)

good luck honey and keep us posted

I agree with Celena... Alot of the tests are so much more sensitive than they claim. Just give the blood work time... HUGS

Thanks guys. I'm going in the morning because it'll either be higher than five or less than five (duh lol) and that should give us an answer for now.

At least if it's 7 or something I know it's not already on the way down.

Amanda,

Hang in there - You tested and got your BFP very early. I have read many people getting positive HPT between 5-10.

After the digi being negative yesterday and positive today, I feel pretty optimistic my numbers must be going up. I go back Monday for another beta though.
