Hi Daisygirl
I had the blood test you are talking about, but unfortunately the nurse didn't give me the value so I can't compare it for you.
I was very early pregnant when I had mine, so I had it done twice 48 hrs apart. This is because the level doubles every 48 hrs, so in early pregnancy it can give you an indication if something is not developing properly. So, if were 11 weeks instead of 6 or 7, the reading would be so much higher than the nurse/doc was expecting.
Hopefully everything goes well for you tomorrow

daisygirl - have sent you a PM. Good luck for your scan tomorrow!
StargazeLilly - try not to stress (I know easier said than done). I have heard that the heartbeat cannot always be detected so early and sometimes cannnot be seen until more like 7 weeks so I'm sure everything will be fine.

Daisygirl, I had that blood test too but really early on, when it doubled every 48 hours. It increases massively so it may be that you are a few weeks further on than you thought.
Good luck with the appointment, let us know how you get on.
I'm so happy to have a little gang.
Let's meet soon!

Dr Cora said I am 7 weeks, so altho my blood count was very high,she could see no twins,later stage etc,some people just have a high count,just means a healthy,if sicky pregnancy.
Hope you are all well and lets try to arrange a meet up soon. x

Next Tuesday sounds fab, I am so sad I will be the last to have my scan! I just want it over and done with now, I am getting quite nervous which is weird.
I can do lunch or dinner no problem. Daytime is not so easy as have to work unfortunately.
I am starting back at Pure Yoga tomorrow, their pre-natal class so will let you know what it is like if anyone is interested. I also have some guest passes if anyone feels like joining me one day.

Next tuesday is also fine for me. I am totally off food at the moment, so not sure how good I'd be at dinner!
Good to hear your scan went well Daisygirl, you are due 2 days after me!
Good luck with your scan Amy!

Well I can always pop out for tea / coffee for an hour or so mid-afternoon if that suits everyone better?
Looking forward to catching up with you all.
