HCG Levels
By aprilluvsmoz » Posted Jun. 6, 2018 2:01pm - 291 views - 0 comments
So yesterday I actually broke down and called the doctor to inform them of my pregnancy. I am experiencing terrible all day sickness and nausea and was hoping to be seen. The earliest they could get me in is the 27th of June and by then I will be almost out of the first trimester. The nurse did want me to take a HCG test though, which is what always scares me. I got a call from the nurse today and my levels were 16,100! Now I have to retake the test tomorrow and hopefully the levels rise. I hate playing this waiting game and that's why I waited until I was pregnant with Noah to go to the doctor until 11 weeks. With recurrent pregnancy loss, I know there is nothing they can do for me and I hate setting myself up to be let down.
The only thing is that with this pregnancy I feel a sense of calm. I've never felt this with any of my pregnancies. I have a feeling that everything will be alright and I keep reminding myself that my body wont fail me and that I've had a successful pregnancy. Its just hard sometimes to believe that you can have good luck twice.
So for the next day I will just enjoy the feeling of being pregnant and keep putting out positive energy and keep the faith that everything will work out as it should.
