I've been replaying the nurse's words over and over in my head.
I knew we needed high HCG levels and low levels could mean the worst case scenerio. So in my mind I'm thinking HIGH numbers.
Right?
Well the nurse said this. "Her levels are HIGH, HIGH, HIGH."
Dummy me, I didn't think to ask WHAT levels were high and what the exact numbers were. I'm on total new ground in this area.
Did they test her progesterone when they test her HCG?
So I go and do a search on HIGH HCG levels, which I probably shouldn't be doing at this point because that just gives me more to be concerned about. AND I don't know WHAT her levels are.
There are three possibilities with HIGH HCG levels.
The most logical one is that Heaven is further along that we expected. Which from the previous post I'm sure you can see how this could be possible. The difference between 8 weeks and 14 is HUGE.
This is what I did. Her last known period was Sept. 10.
It was 18 days late.
I counted back 18 days for the date her period would have been due, had it been on time, and that was August 24th.
I went back one month to figure out what her last period would have been and that gives me July 24th.
I counted forward from July 24th and that gave me 13 weeks. (14 weeks on Friday)
That is a BIG difference from September 10th, which would put her at 8 weeks on Thursday.
The second reason I found was multiple births.
The third reason I found, is the one I wish I'd never read.
Something called a Molar Pregnancy.
Honestly I shouldn't be do any of this. It just makes me crazier. I need to go and pray.
The doctor will be in after 1. So hopefully I'll have the totals soon and I'll update again.

On pins and needles right there with you! Stop researching!!! :) (I know, easier said than done!).... I'm thinking she is really farther along than we think.
Keep updating!
PRAYING!!!
They probably did check her progesterone along with the Hcg and if both were high that is good. Molar pregnancies are rare and spotting in first trimester is common. Praying here and looking for updates! (((((Hugs)))))))
