Blood Results

[poohshunny]

Hi Folks. I'm looking for a bit af advice. The first day of my last period was 14 April. I did a home test on Saturday and it was positive. I started bleeding bright red fresh blood on Monday night, went to A&E on advice of the hospital. Had a scan yesterday morning and had bloods taken. The scan was inconclusive. When I got my blood results today they were 640. The bleeding stopped by Tuesday morning. I'm being scanned and more bloods done tomorrow. This is my 5th pregnancy (1 child, 2 miscarriages and an ectopic). Is 640 low and by how much should they increase by in 48 hours?

you are currently 5+ weeks so a figure of 640 isnt low.

the blood test in 2 days would ideally show a figure of roughly double that.

this may help give you an idea http://www.mums.me.uk/docs/BHCG.pdf

hope alls well and that it was implantation bleed

Thanks for you answer redcrx. That link is very useful and as you say 640 doesn't seem to be low. All I can do is take all the advice I can and hope for the best.

Just to let you know, I went for another scan today which confirmed an ectopic pregnancy. To say me and hubby are devastated is an understatement. I've had the injection and follow up appointment is Monday.

A&E is being misused here!
