In reply to: Carol: "Pregnancy problems?" Next in thread: Carol: "Re: Pregnancy problems?" Reply: Carol: "Re: Pregnancy problems?" Hi Carol, Your hCG values should double every 2-3 days, and it appears they are from what you posted. Also, according to most hCG charts I have seen, your levels are appropriate for your gestational age. >However, when I went for an ultrasound on July 28th >(estimated 6 weeks, 2 days pregnant), they could not detect a heartbeat. >They want to do another one in 2 weeks, but I'm an absolute basketcase >and two weeks seems like an eternity. I would really try and think positive-especially in light of your valid hCG results. Two weeks from now they may indeed detect a heartbeat, but the baby needs that time to grow. >Given my HCG levels should I still be concerned, or was this just too >early to detect a heartbeat? Would HCG continue to rise if there was no >fetal development? Possibly, but talk to your doctor about what might be happening. Did they do a regular abdominal ultrasound or a transvaginal ultrasound? They may have been able to detect a heartbeat with transvaginal US, but, it is my understanding that it might be a little early for the abdominal US to detect a heartbeat.
