Just got the call from the OB. My hCG levels are 1,309.
According to my trusty chart, for week six we should be 1,100-56,000.
Last time I was EXTREMELY low and she told me that I was just ... low. But I was never told how low, so I don't have much to compare this to.
In my heart of hearts, I feel like the fetus stopped growing and these are back end numbers of coming down from the high. If so, I will either start bleeding this weekend, or have to have a D&C next week.
The other alternative is that everything is fine, the progesterone lifts the hCG levels, and, like last time, I am just on the low end of things. If everything is the same as last time minus the hematoma, then I am going to be thrilled. But here is why I don't think that's what is happening -- last time the 200 mg of progesterone lifted my progesterone levels to normal. This time, even with the progesterone, I am still low. I think my body is trying to miscarry, but the supplements might be not letting it.
Not going to the doctor until next week is sooo frustrating. I just want to know now. I wish that I was somewhere with multiple doctors so ONE of them could see me.
Appointment booked for the fertility clinic for next time. Because this is now confirmed a hormonal issue, and not a freaking "FLUKE".
