Had more spotting .....

I had some tiny red blot clots with a bit of brown blood. Sorry if that's TMI. So we went to the ER.
My HCG on Tues was was over 5600 and today it was 8000. The Doc called my OB  and they said it can double in 48-72 hours. So I have to go in tomorrow for more blood. My cervix is closed and no more bleeding. I need all you HCG experts to tell me what you think?? Im so scared Im going to lose this baby :(

I'm not an expert and don't know enough to say anything re your numbers other than the fact they're going up is a good thing.  I hope it continues that way...and the spotting stops.  I'll be praying for you.

Ty so much!

Your numbers are going up and that is a good sign. Remember, that you double every 72 hours. So, you had just a little bit longer to get to 10,000. Just hang in there!

Keep us posted. I will send through thoughts and vibes your way for a continued sticky bean!

Do you think those numbers still look ok?

Yes. You can't fit it all into exact parameters. They are just looking for a jump in numbers every 72 hours. So, I am saying it was not 72 yours yet and your numbers almost doubled. So, if you would have gone a few more hours to hit 72 you would have hit 10,000 which was double from 5k. Just remember going up is the sign you are looking for right now. Now, if you are spotting and your numbers are going down then that is different but your numbers clearly went up :)

I know it is stressful and I can't imagine how you are feeling but try your best to remain calm until you see your OB tomorrow (or was it blood test tomorrow). Stress is not good for the baby!

Keep us posted. We will be thinking of you.

I am not an expert either... but they are going up - that has got to be good right??! I am hoping the best for you. Do you have an ultrasound scheduled??

No ultra sound scheduled....just another HCG test! ty!

darn it! Don't they know that us mothers will drive ourselves INSANE with worry??? I am taking it as a good sign they are going up!!! :) When I started spotting mine were going down.  I am thinking of you!

I too experienced that last weekend (spotting/blood clots) and I just had my 2nd ultra sound today and everything is fine.  Baby and sac grew and we saw and heard the heart beat.  I'm sure everything's ok.  Just keep us posted.  My thoughts are with you and the little one.  Relax, it will be ok.
