Hi, thank you Zoe for the input. I know every pg is different so will just have to hope.

Back from the clinic. At only 4 weeks 6 days it's too soon to scan so they took more blood and I'll either hear tomorrow or Wednesday what the levels are doing. ReganKate, we must have similar number systems as on Friday I had 740 apparently. They've told us there's nothing we can do help, ie. there's nothing to be gained from resting so I'll work like fury all week to pass the time. They also said a HPT will still show a + due to the hormone pills I'm still popping.

Thanks again for your messages.
Debra.

Posted for you on the other side but had not realised this was 4wks and 6 days - that was a high hcg or should I say is a high hcg - could be twins and maybe one coming away - might be the problem - could be twins and this is implantation bleed!
Fingers crossed.
Love

Hi, I'm so confused now. I think it was good news......

My test from yesterday has come back with a level of 3000 ie. I was still pg. I must go tomorrow for another, results back on Thursday. I'm still bleeding extremely heavily so can't understand how I can possibily be pg. I'll wait until Thursday before relaxing.

thanks for all your support, it really, really helps.

love
Debra.

My numbers were 1210 on 16 days after transfer......
But the clinic keeps telling me thay STILL don't know how many there are. But everyone else I speak to says it is high??
I go back again tomorrow........WHO KNOWS??

Debrah-
I hope you are doing OK....3000 sound high to me. Did the clinic explain the bleeding?
I hope you are doing OK!!!!
My thoughts are with you!!

Numbers still sound good to me - as I've said, bleeding could be lots of things - my clinic told me that the uterus can be 'gripey' (not the word they used, but something similar :shock: , especially if there is more than one. Try and relax a little if that's possible - think of that baby/babies and give it/them positive vibes :D
Take care

HI GIRLS,DEBRA YOUR LEVELS SOUND FINE,YOU MUST STILL BE PREGNANT,MY FRIEND WHOS PREGNANT NATURALLY.HAD BLEEDING AT FIRST BUT SHES FINE NOW.
MY LEVELS FRON THE CLINIC TODAY(HADNT COME BACK LAST NIGHT)

THEY WERE A BIT CONFUSED WHEN I TURNED UP FOR A SECOND BLOOD TEST AS THEY SAID THEY NEVER DO A SECOND ONE.TRUST ME :roll:
BUT THEY WERE FINE AND UNDERSTOOD IT WAS JUST TO PUT MY MIND AT REST.
TAKE CARE EVERYONE.LOVE LOOPY. :D
