Not sure to be honest but I do know what you mean when you say its been playing on your mind. My placenta with kobe had an extra sac they discovered when he was born and my hcg levels were really weird with him at the start to and my midwife said it could have been a twin and I often think about that aswell.
Not sure if there is any way to get answers though so I try not to let myself dwell on it to much.]]> Wed, 05 Mar 2008 20:12:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=318933&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#318933 <![CDATA[HCG/Miscarrige/pregnancy TMI Q’s : 10 weeks 2 days, and not so much...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=318922&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#318922 Author: fattartsrock

10 weeks 2 days, and not so much a form, more a kidney bean shape clotty thing. like I said, I have just been thinking about it a bit lately. Still, if I had had twins then, I wouldn't have gone on to have Charly, thats for sure!]]> Wed, 05 Mar 2008 20:06:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=318922&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#318922 <![CDATA[HCG/Miscarrige/pregnancy TMI Q’s : Can i ask how many weeks when...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=318777&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#318777 Author: Nefertiti

Can i ask how many weeks when you were when you found out? Its just you say you think you saw a tiny fetus...but you would have had to have been quite a few weeks along to see any form...]]> Wed, 05 Mar 2008 17:39:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=318777&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#318777 <![CDATA[HCG/Miscarrige/pregnancy TMI Q’s : It may be in your notes Annie,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=316881&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#316881 Author: Redbedrock

It may be in your notes Annie, and you have access to those. I think you may need to approach the practice manager to read them, or it may be easier to see your GP and get them to read back through your notes with you, probably the better way. You could also request to see your hospital notes it may be in there. It may be a big IF tho as it would noty be recorded as a m/c unless they were really sure, so you may be none the wiser
Sorry I know nothing about twins m/c or HCG levels but you are entitled to see you records under the health and Disabilitys act (I think, I'm sure I'm not making that up it's been a long day]]> Mon, 03 Mar 2008 19:47:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=316881&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#316881 <![CDATA[HCG/Miscarrige/pregnancy TMI Q’s : The majority of m/c twins are...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=316856&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#316856 Author: Maya

The majority of m/c twins are absorbed back into the body and not expelled as most people believe. Even when a twin passes away later in the pregnancy it does begin to break down again.
But in some cases there is bleeding, so I guess it's impossible to say. Also hCG levels can do random and funny things early in pregnancy so that in itself can be misleading either way. Some twin pregnancies have normal hCG levels, some have higher than normal and some singleton pregnancies have higher than normal levels.

Erm I read somewhere that the levels rise till 8 (ish) weeks and then drop off, perhaps it was that happening and just a random bleed? But I don't know enough about it, perhaps you could talk to your old midwife or your gp about it.]]> Mon, 03 Mar 2008 18:46:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=316823&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#316823 <![CDATA[HCG/Miscarrige/pregnancy TMI Q’s : Yep I think so too, but I don&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14975&PID=316818&title=hcg-miscarrige-pregnancy-tmi-qs#316818 Author: mummy_becks

Yep I think so too, but I don't know if you could ever find out if he was.

Ok. Fisrt up I am NOT pregnant, nor am I likely to be ever agian, and I'm good with that.

BUT something has been weighing on my mind alot over the last few weeks, and I'm sure its just because of the flood of emotions I got from my baby turning one and the realisation that there will be no more (and, once again, I am good with that).

On the day that I found out I was pregnant with Jake, I got my "period". I was booked in to see the Dr, as I had been very sick and peeing all the time, so I thought I had diabeties, lol. But somewhere in the back of my mind, I thought I might have been pregnant, so when I got my "period", although I didn't really want kids, it was a bit of a mixture of relief and dissapointment. On inspection of what seemed a very painful and clotty period (which I put down to it being sooo late) there was a big clot that looked like a tiny fetus, and I thought, oh, there goes my baby, and felt a little sad when I flushed (and it took ages for me to do that). I never thought about "saving" it to take to the Dr's for him to look at.

So anyway, I have another Dr that morning, as my own was off, and she did the whole could you be pregnant thing, and I said no I just got my period, so we did a test just in case, and of course it was +, so she said well, you are pregnant, but it looks likely that you are losing your baby. She was really lovely, organised some blood tests, made sure I was ok, and sent me home to rest. She rung that afternoon (a friday) and said my HCG's were very high, but I would need another blood test after the weekend to see what was happening, however the continuing m/s was a good sign.

So a nervous weekend and an early morning monday blood test, resulted in a lunch time phone call saying my levels were very low, and hadn't moved like she would have thought if I still had a live baby inside so she would send me for a scan since I was still very, very sick.

So the scan showed I was ten weeks pregnant with a healthy baby that would become Jake. The last contact I had with that Dr regarding that pregnancy was a letter I picked up from reception booking me into the hospital with a midwife.

So to get to the point, do you think, all you Oh Baby Dr's that that Jake was a twin? I always thought he was.

I just got to thinking, becasue of the high high HCG, which she said were "unusually high" that always stuck in my mind, then with them being very low again, and not moving like they would have if baby was still around..

Do you think there would be anything on my records that might indicate weather or not he was, with the levels doing those funny things in the beginning?

Hmmm. Not looking ofr symppathy or what ever, I'm not one of the woe is me I had a misscarrige types, and I don't mean that offensively, I'm just not that kind of girl. I got Jake out of it, so it had a happy ending, anyhow, I have just been wondering about it alot lately.

Sorry for the long post!
