early pregnancy

[Bill7245]

My girlfriend is pregnant, we go to doctor and they check her hcg levels.5144 and 48 hrs later 6028. So they call us in and talk to us for 20 minutes and say that she is having an ectopic or abnormal pregnancy and basically explains that we can't keep this baby. So she does vag ultrasound and there is baby and a light heartbeat. And she just says ok see you in 2 weeks. She wouldn't tell us anything else, I asked her about hormone pills to get the levels up but she refused, she is 5wks5days. So she said we have an abnormal pregnancy then there is baby, see you in 2 weeks. Should we be worried, get a 2nd opinion or what?

Not sure if anyone still reads this post, but I am proud to report that we finally found out what the complications was for.   TWINS, Just found out yesterday and they are identical and have great heartbeats. No complications, just double trouble on the way

Thanks for your responses,
We have decided to change doctors. Our new doc is looking over the file, and said he wants to get her in for an appointment. He is suggesting HCG test, and said with the levels going so slow she should be on hormone pills. He said the good news is the baby is in the correct place and fairly the right size, and that we saw a heartbeat. However, the hcg is not rising fast enough and he is concerned with the heart rate. Will let everyone know how it goes once we can get test done, thx again for the help

I agree with SunWorshiper at this point you are just going to have to wait and see.
As long as the baby was in the Uterus and not the tube that would be a great a sign. Did the doctor tell you or show you where the baby was because if she did that would give a little bit of a better idea of what was going on

Hope all works out for the best

The only thing you can do is wait and see. Hormone level's are just right for a pregnancy that far along. As long as the pregnancy is viable, and you saw a heartbeat then I wouldn't worry. I would how ever get a second opinion.... Sometimes it's very hard to see a baby's heart beat at 5 weeks. It's usually seen between 6-8 weeks. But keep us posted on how she's doing .

There isn't really much you can do but what and see what happens. Either the pregnancy will progress or it won't but there isn't a way for the dr to know for sure so that's why they say wait and see.
