Thanks so much for the message PP :) hcg levels jumped from 2000 to 5136, progesterone from 50 to 85. Doctor said to come back in 2 weeks for internal scan again. So I'm just praying. The constant panty watching is killing me though.
Cysts are normal. I keep them & as the baby grows it should be fine. As for the cramping that is normal at 5 week's. It could actually be implantation bleeding (when embryo attaches to uterus) which can also come with cramping. It happens in early pregnancy & if they say ur 5 then ur actually 3 week's in bc they estimate pregnancy by the first day of ur last period & ovulation usually happens about 8-12 days afterwards. So please do not worry urself right now.
Lol thanks AT*:) for sure smiling it's a bug blessing and an unexpected gift. Will know tomorrow what the levels say. Do you perhaps have a guidance for normal hcg and progesterone levels? It probably varies so much from person to person but I'm not sure what will be healthy. I know it needs to double frequently. How many bundles do you have and how far are you now?
I don't know where u are but your doctor doesn't sound very good!!! If ur progesterone levels are back to normal I wouldn't worry much and as for cysts have sex towards the side that it's on and it will pop by it's self I have cysts and they hurt until I get them to pop. Try not to stress and I bled with all my babies and I still spot with this one if it's not dark red and a bunch than don't freak out. && SMILE YOU HAVE A BABY INSIDE YOU!!
Thanks Rasberry, wish you all the best. Just going to take it baby steps at a time :)
My doc said ovarian cysts are normal and not to worry. She also said some women have spotting throughout their entire pregnancies, deliver healthy babies and we never learn what causes the bleeding.
Hope that helps!
SO..Doc says I am definitely pregnant. Found the baby sac with a healthy lining no blood etc. He also found an ovarian cyst on my left side :( which he says might not necessarily be a bad thing as he said it gives out more progesterone, but must be monitored. Cannot be removed as it's dangerous at this stage. He cannot explain where the brownish spotting is coming from mmm... Said he doesn't like spotting at all cause it's normally not good. Body has a way of telling you something is up. He did say cramps are normal to have though, period type cramps early stages. Did hcg and progesterone bloods awaiting results. Have to do again in two days to see of it doubled. I do hope all is going to go well and that my little sunflower seed will stick till the end. He said it's a waiting game. Ill continue the progesterone cyclogest, but he said his not entirely sure if it really helps. Awaiting his call for the results. Crossing fingers
Feeling a bit heartbroken now. When I did my morning pee and wiped I got a bit of brownish discharge. I know this is normally bad :((( seeing doc in 4 hours
Thanks so much ladies, appreciate the support a lot. Going to cross my fingers and toes and hope and pray for the best.
It seems fine now again, don't see anything. Just normal white discharge which I believe is from the progesterone. Are you perhaps familiar with how long you need to wait before you wee after a progesterone vaginal pill?
I know you're scared right now but try to rest or watch your fave movie to take your mind off things. When you see you're doc, she'll know what to do. These Obgyn's see hundreds of cases each month and have better data than you or me on what to do to help women carry to term.
Does it have an odour to it?
Hi, I recently had the same thing happen -- brown and pink discharge at 5 weeks -- and cramps. I went for a scan and the doc gave me progesterone and an hcg test. The hcg was on the low side but the progesterone helped! We saw a heartbeat yesterday.
My mom also had two msc -- but her third was a beautiful strong baby. She rested up a lot more with number three. I'm sure third time will be the charm for you too. Hang tight and rest up.
Good luck, praying for you.
