I am estimated to be 6 weeks and 3 days as of May 8. My hcg levels were taken on the 6th and my doc told me my levels were at 85,000.  Could I be having twins??? Does HCG levels go up higher with multiples??
Help. Worried. I havent told my family yet so I need some type of advice and support because my family is against me having children right now

hun don't stress out. My family told me the same thing all of them told me they thought I was going to be a bad mom. In fact  now all my family and friends tell me I'm a great mom I know I am. Don't listen to them don't stress out about it I'm sure you'll be a great mom and you'll do just fine.
I'm sorry hun you have to deal with that Unnecessary stress

Blighted ovum I guess I passed the baby or the baby didn't grow but the sac was growing inside me and it later could cause an infection so they had to give me a D&C to make sure everything was passed and took the sac out

I'm sorry to hear about your D&C. Well I'm really glad they were able to find a fetal pole. I hope the pregnancy goes really good for you and you don't have any complications. I'm not sure what the Blight ovum is? But I hope it isn't too serious.

I haven't had any bleeding yet. But I am seeing a specialist in high risk pregnancies and she is great! Before her I was told I had a blighted ovum. I had faith and didn't believe him so I went to see the specialist and she told me she saw a fetal pole which the other doctor didn't see because I may have been too early. I had a vaginal ultrasound by her and that's how I found out my bad news I was carrying for a week turned out to be a mistake and I had a baby....but I go back in two weeks to make sure everything is going well and progressing :) I too had a D&C at 3 months last year only after a month of finding out I was TWO months pregnant :(

you definitely need to get rid of the negative people out of your life. I know that They are your family but if their going to be like that for the rest of your life I would definitely get rid of them. You definitely don't have to tell them anything about your pregnancy or even if your pregnant I don't blame you
you don't need that stress or worry while having a baby. I hope you get the financial help you need and you're able to find a job but don't stress too much hun.

The only support I have is my fiancée.... That's about it :/ I don't talk to my family because they are negative and full if drama. They do not accept me bring pregnant because they think I won't be able to take care of a baby because I'm going through some financial problems and am trying to find a job but this government makes it harder to find a job. I'm so stresses out right now but I'm trying to stay positive. My family makes fun of me laughing at me saying they are glad I don't have kids cuz I'm a "kid myself" I'll be 21 in a few months but I know I'll be a great mom and I'm ready. But getting made fun if and put down by my family is hurting and that is why I'm bottling up all these feelings and not telling them I'm pregnant only because I don't want to argue and let them down let Alone put myself in a situation that will hurt me even more .....

hun I'm not trying to scare you but I just feel like I should try to help people and prevent anything like this happening to others but

if you start having bleeding see if they can do A vaginal ultrasound to check for a molar pregnancy. I had a lot of bleeding and went to two different er's   in about 3 months. They didn't catch my molar pregnancy until I was 3 months a long. I had to have a D&C and I have to see a specialist at a cancer facility because of that.

Thanks rebeccaann11. My doc said there's a possibility but doing some research I found women with twins and/or around 6 weeks are WAYYY below 85,000. I just hope its not a chemical or chromosome problem :(

the best bet is just to do an ultrasound. I'm sure if your doctor concerned about you having multiple babies they would do an ultrasound very soon.
