Feeling really scared Scan and HCG level!!!

[Karly1824]

OMG I feel so down today I feel like crying but my son is here as half term so I cant.
Ok I have my scan booked for tomorrow which I am just petrified about
Plus because of past molar pregnancy I am having my HCG levels monitored so my first level wa taken last thurs 15/5 and level was at 75 whichI felt ok with as it was still 2 days before I was due AF so very early, my second HCG level was taken last weds so 6 days after and I got my level this morning, It was was 249 this seems very low it defo hasnt doubled every 2 days so now I am in pieces Im shaking and just feel like crying.
The only thing I can think of is the first |HCG test was FMU and the second wasnt so maybe this made it lower, I want to ring the molar pregnancy specialist nurse but we dont gel and she just doesnt seem very helpful or reasurring so now I dont know what to do.
Tomorrow I have to have scan in same room as I did when I realised I had a missed M/C and it all of sudden hit me how scared I am

Sorry for rant but didnt know how else to talk to

there is no easy answer honey - that is not actually a bad increase but you aren't going to get any answers until the scan tomorrow It doesn't really suggest a molar pregnancy - just early days on what is probably a normal pregnancy.

you will see a little sac on the scan tomorrow but there is a chance that you will not see anythign yet if the hcg is not yet >1000 so don't be disheartened if that is the case - they may just have to repeat the scan.

Do something fun with your son today and relax as much as you can - one day at a time
