I went to the doctor Tuesday for the first time after having strong stomach cramps and severe headaches... along with morning sickness. They said according to the ultrasound I was 4 weeks and 5 days. They wanted to repeat my quan. HCG and check my RH levels. I got a call late Friday afternoon that said my hcg was 1800 on tues and on thurs it was 8000. I was also told that I was RH negative and would need to be given a shot. I had an appointment for 2 weeks already scheduled. The nurse said that the doctor wanted to see me first thing Monday morning to complete an ultrasound. She then told me I needed to take it easy over the weekend and if I had any cramping worse than menstrual cramps or bleeding I should go immediately to the ER. She finished by saying "hopefully everything will be ok until Monday". I ask if everything was OK and she said yes.
I'm very concerned. I've read that Hcg levels should double every 48 hours. My number increased 6 times. Could this mean I may be pregnant with twins? If it's a single baby should I be concerned something is wrong. I can not sleep worrying about this.
