Do you think the doctor/midwife be wrong? Here's what's going on.


The midwife called me back today with the results from my 4th hCG test, and the u/s I had today. The u/s showed an empty gestational sac. My hCG numbers were at 4628. One week ago today they were at 300. According to her I am 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant, and at that point I should be able to see a baby in the u/s.

I've been lurking here ever since I graduated. I try not to post much but sometimes certain posts catch my mind.


I wanted to share a story of mine with you;


I was 5 weeks pregnant and I started to bleed. My dr. sent me for the HCG levels and all that. It was low but still within normal, then the second test came back that it increased but not as much as they would have liked. Sent me for a ultrasound,

Definitely get a second opinion if your current dr. is not willing to perform more tests.
