Pregnancy complications - miscarriages
Posted: 08-13-05 00:39am

Cant make a long story short. I have had one successful pregnancy and that child is now four going on five. Had no complications other than a long labor but most of us have experienced that.


I was just pregnant again this year in feb. And had an expected due date for the day after my first childs birthday. In march I had an etopic pregnancy I was about eight weeks. I have never had a sexually transmitted disease or pid so I dont understand why this happened.


I am now pregnant and dont even know how far along. Just had a period on 6 july and found out I was pregnant on the 29 of july six days before my next period was due. As soon as I was sure I was pregnant I went to the local emergency room( I am in the army), I told them of what happened a few months ago and my concern because at the time I kept feeling pain in my stomach. They confirmed that I was pregnant, then did some blood work to see how far along I was since I said I just had a period. They did the blood work told me that I had the lowest counts they had ever saw but wouldnt do an ultrasound because the person on call for ob said that I didnt even miss a period dont worry come back when I miss a period. That was on a sat my hcg level at that time was 36 miu/ml. That thursday I got them checked by one of our sick call docs and they went up to 576 miu/ml. And this thursday they were at 9210 miu/ml. I thought that was a good sign because they are doubling but they quadrupled almost in 7 days insted of just doubling at first I thought that was a good thing then I read that just as them not doubling, increasing too much can also be a sign of etopic pregnancy.


I am trying to be as confident as possible since this time unlike the last I actually feel pregnant last time I didnt feel pregnant at all I need some answers and they are hard to come by. Being in the army they dont really care to do to much for you they are more about work, I wont even be seen by an ob until I hit 12 weeks for an exam and they know my history. Where can I go for answers?
