Slow rising HCG, Bleeding, 7 weeks pregnant

[nmt1996]

Sorry for the TMI pictures, I guess I'm just looking for some positive stories 😞

I am 7 weeks 4 days pregnant, I had an ultrasound at 5 weeks and there was a fetal pole and sac, it all looked good. They mentioned in the ultrasound not to be alarmed if I had some bleeding as there was a subchorionic hematoma.

I had a bit of bleeding yesterday afternoon that only happened once. I had my HCG retested and it is only slowly rising.

24th Aug 10,783
28th Aug 11, 900

I'm booked for an ultrasound tomorrow and I'm hoping they find a healthy baby in there. Has anyone experience anything similar and what was the outcome?

The stress is getting the better of me 😞

I'm sure once your hcg reaches 6,000 it increases slower... but I'm not sure how much slower. I hope everything goes well with your scan.

Also please don't use tampons when pregnant - it's not safe! x

Yes the above poster is right - hcg slows at a point. The doubling is only important in the very early stages.

also , definitely no tampons .

hopefully scan goes ok and that's the bleeding they warned about x

Thanks for your replies. I just left the hospital. Not looking good 😞 I didn't use the tampons. I only used it to wipe inside of me because I couldn't get a photo of it on my finger
