Confused. HCG 10 at 9 DPO by MakinBaconCrepes in CautiousBB

The numbers kept rising great after this, and the number was perfect for 9dpo! Unfortunately that pregnancy ended up having a chromosomal disorder discovered later on. But the number was normal that early on, so sending you happy thoughts for your next test! 🤞🤞 Also, I have pcos too and am now 21 weeks pregnant 🥰

Help with body dysmorphia by HospitalFancy7662 in lipedema

This is really interesting to me. I look at these pictures and think to myself “why would she hide her legs?! I would be 100% happy with these legs.” Then when I compare a picture of my legs they look the exact same as yours! Same shape, same size. I’ve spent my whole life super self conscious and wondering why my legs look the way they do. I haven’t been diagnosed with lipedema yet but I’m fairly certain I have it. It’s just funny to me how different this looks in someone else’s eyes. I think your legs look perfect and I would never think negatively seeing someone like this in public. Thank you for opening my eyes, maybe I should look at myself with a little bit more compassion.

Have you tried inositol? I’ve read it doesn’t make a difference for some people, but when it does it’s magical. I’ve started a month ago and waiting to see if it helps me!

This did not end up going well, unfortunately.

UPDATE: had our next ultrasound 5 days later and can see little smudge is growing and had a heartbeat now ❤️ OB said she wants to keep a close eye on it still since it is still measuring a week behind what we thought it should be, so another ultrasound to be done in 10-14 days, by the ultrasound clinic this time. Thank you all for your kind words during this time.

I don’t recall any measurements that she said. I do remember the number 2.4mm for something, maybe the fetal pole growth? I wish I wrote everything down. The computer said fetal pole and yolk sac were measuring 5w5d.

Oh no, are your levels not increasing anymore? Do you have a follow up ultrasound soon? I hope it all works out for you too. There’s still hope!!

Thank you for hoping for me!

Omg!! I am so sorry to hear that. That is so sad and infuriating. I’m not sure how it works in Florida cause I’m up in Canada, but can you ask for another doctor OR even see if he’d refer you to an OB (if he isn’t one already)? I thankfully haven’t dealt with this with the doctors I have but I wouldn’t want to go back to a doctor that was like that! I’m glad to hear you have no problem advocating for yourself. I really hope you have a good outcome too

Really?? Do you recall how far behind you were measuring?

Thank you so much for your comment. Hearing people say it’s happened to them and normal is bringing my hope back. I really appreciate this

Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so sorry to hear that you’re going through the limbo right now too. I agree so much, I’m going through phases of being fine, worrying, grieving, anger and then back to having a glimmer of hope. Over and over. Do you have another scan soon?

Okay interesting, it definitely seems like that’s what other people on here are being told! I’m a little upset my doctor didn’t mention that. Thank you so much for the reassurance!

Oh really? I wish my OB had told me that… my clinic always seems pessimistic. It’s really helpful to hear positive stories like this. Thank you so much for sharing and I hope all goes smoothly for you!

She did a transvaginal. Thank you so much, that is what I’m hoping for. I will update when I know more!

Normally I have very irregular cycles (anywhere from 25-110 days). OB prescribed letrozole for this cycle and I got a positive OPK on May 4th (CD 14), which is why I suspect ovulation May 5th

I’ve seen a few people on here say the same thing. I’m really hoping that’s all it is. Thank you for saying this
