To my knowledge, I've been pregnant for 6 days. After two BFN at home, I went for a scheduled blood test on 01/02/17. A day later, my results were an Hcg of 10.75.
The line underneath my results listed the appropriate values for post-menopausal women (0 - 10 mIU/ml). And under that, it listed that ranges for duration of pregnancy.
Well, my funny bone kicked it. I took a picture of the results and Whatsapp'd my sisters with the tagline "I don't know if I'm post-menopausal or pregnant!
After that died down, the obsessions began ... kept searching Dr Google for "low hcg success stories"; tried to convince myself that maybe I'd ovulated late or implanted late. (Kinda difficult to lie to yourself when you are doing IUI with a trigger shot... but hey!)
My doctor said to retest in a week ... tomorrow.
My other obsession is no symptoms. I mean nothing! I'm on progesterone suppositories, so I'm not sure if my sleepiness at 2100 is baby related or progesterone related. Other than that ... nada, nothing, gutiri kindu. Where is my "improved" sense of smell, those larger areoli, sensitive breasts, bloat, etc????
So I give blood tomorrow and wait til Thursday for increased hcg levels.
