Not doubling.

Beta is 143. Consultant calling later to discuss more bloods and early scans. I feel sick. And fucked off. And mostly sad.

  2. Keep your head up, I have heard of many people having successful pregnancies with low (or not doubling) betas. Don't lose hope yet ;)!

  4. I'm sorry to hear the numbers aren't jumping up as much as hoped, Laura. It's shit and stressful as all hell for you. I hope the consultant has some answers and helpful insights at this point to help things along. Every pregnancy's different but I know it's hard not to try and compare. Keep your chin up ... This little one might be still trying to find it's groove in there. I hope you get some reassurance soon. Will be thinking of you x

  5. Also really hoping that you get some reassurance soon... and hoping that these numbers just mean that you'll be able to tell your healthy little baby that s/he was stressing you out from the start.
