hi everyone..my pregnancy today again quite uneventful...feeling just fatigue but no nausea or not as much...don't really have an appet_te for the last 2 days...maybe thats why??? my blood work came back and i was told my hcg levels were slightly more than doubling but the nurse did not tell me or indicate it was unusual..if it were she may have said i want you to come in you look like you might be carrying more than 3???lol???well...my hcg on tue 10 dpo was 112 IU/L and then on thursday 12 dpo it was 284 IU/L. now i see everyone talking in 1000's when showing their HCG am a bit confused that definately means i couldnt have conceived more than one...although it is more than doubling. she seemed very pleased and am now looking forward to the scan...oh i have started to feel flutters..i am sure it is not the baby but definately related to the changes going on in there...the feeling is like small palpitations...almost as when you get tickeled lower down on your waist...it could be gas but i can definately feel it more today..i had this feeling yesterday but today it ishappening more often....this is sooooooo exciting.....please everyone keep us updated with your symptoms.....lots of love and baby dust to all of you...

Yas: Stupid question but what does "IU/L mean"?

 

Linda - December 12

those levels are quite high, are you certain of your ovulation date? 1000's are allot further along, mine was 1544 at 19dpo if that helps, only 22 at 10dpo with a doubling time of 34hrs

Megan, it mean international units per litre

 

yas2000 - December 12

well she said it was 112 on tue and 284 on thu...but she didnt seem concerned...i asked her the units she said international units per i liter of blood...i am looking everywhere and people are talking of 1-500 mIU/L or alking in 6,000 i.e in 1000's IU/l....i really don't know what she means did she giv ema wrong usint could mine be in mIU/l or what i really don't understand...this is maths i cannot do...lol sorry..not my best subject..

yes i am certain...if you read my previous post and history..i had lots and lots of ewcm 12 days past my lmp but it wasnt until 14 days past my lmp when i detected the strong lh surge and had O cramps....so i must have O around day 16 past lmp....my last lm was 8th nov..today i am at 16 dpo. so do my levels sound high or just normal range...?have NOOOOOO idea about hcg!

 

yas2000 - December 12

all i was told was 112 to 284 in 35 hours...almost 2 days...

Tiffany - December 12

Thanks for asking! I do feel sxs. I have had a VERY sore tummy since O. I have tons of creamy cm(tmi sorry) and my cervix is up so high I can hardly feel it. I feel a little sea sick too. I am 4 dpo so, it's all probally in my head! LOL. My nips are totally sticking out further than I have ever seen before. I have implants so with those and my nips I look like a p___n star! LOL.!!!!! Out of control................... I think your numbers are a sign that you might have more than one little bean in there. I can't wait untill your next scan! When will it be?

 

Tiffany - December 12

Oh, and one more thing! I was eating M&M's and orange juice last night. I couldn't get enough! I thought that was wierd. Do you check cp? Mine is so far up. It has never been like that before.

 

yas2000 - December 12

wow...yor signs sound so positive...i would suggest to do a hpt from day 8dpo...esp if you can get hold of an early one...then test again 10 or 12 dpo....or just leave it to the next af..but that would be hard dont you think..i alwsya want to know early so i can get my bod ready for the next conception...anyway...wishing you loads of lukc and will look out for your results but i think you sound very muhc preg to me or that something has defiatrly happened...my prayers are with you... the tech who read my results for me said i am happy they are doubling and little it more than that...but she never mentiond she though they were high or unusual..i really hope you are right...she also never said milli just the numbe4rs and when i asked her she said internation units per litere of blood...how do you read 112 and 284 then?is it 1120 ans 2840 or 11200 or what..so sorry this is boring but can never understand when people talk about their hcg...some say single digit numbers some say 3 a and 4 and others say 5 digit numbers... my scan is next tuesday at 10..will let everyone know it goes....

 

yas2000 - December 12

hi everyone...now hat have stopped ranting on about my hcg levels..i can proudly announce that i am 5 weeks today!!!!!yipeeee! however i am just a teeny weeny bit concerned that all i felt today was fatigue..nausea has only set in he evening...but other than that i don't have any of the symptoms soem others here have the 24h sickness, loss of weight, etc etc...my b___bs don't hurt as much...i am jsut abit scared due to the fading of symptoms..and although i don't like it...would want at least some symptoms to come back with a bang...so i can rea__sure myself i am 'still' pregnant!!!! oh by the way my last thread seem to have been removed..i did make a complaint of one of the posts in there which as siding us but using a very silly example...or are my eyes plauing tricks on me...i just cant seem to find it...lol.....was it lew who was having her scan tommorrow or someone else...please keep us posted on how it goes....

 

Megan - December 12

yas2000 - December 12

TripletMom - December 12

I absolutely will stay away from this thread as long as long as I you dont push the use of U/P clomid. try to be responsible (young kids viewing this). Good luck...
