I measured 6w1d today and my hcg is 93,000. I'm worried it's too high. And I don't really have any nausea which I know could be from high levels. Does anyone remember their levels at around 6w?
*lurking*
Mine was around 85,000 in week 6 with just one babe and all is well. Nausea/vomiting didn't really kick in for me until 9 weeks then it was awful. There's such a wide range for betas, yours sounds normal to me!

@winnifred I actually found cervical checks more painful than most of my contractions, although I stalled at 4cm so I really never got to the most painful part of labor. Getting the Foley bulb placed was the worst.
yoshijo28 My understanding is that the actual beta numbers don't tell you much, it's the rate of increase that matters. Also I had very little nausea even with twins so that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
Thanks, bocaburger! The foley bulb sounds awful, assuming that must feel like the HSG? That was insanely painful, which I can't imagine dealing with if you're already in labor! Hopefully dr will just place the cytotec in there and we can start moving on!

I agree foley bulb is pretty rough initially, but more weird pressure to me than super painful. The cytotec literally did nothing for me. It was actually really annoying because they placed it 3x with no results and wasted a whole day.
In terms of pain I'll be honest and say I think my whole experience is skewed because I spent about 4 hours at 9cm before I got the epidural (I'm a glutton for punishment) and I still ended up with a c-section in the end. Bitter party of one.

Well the placing of it feels like an extra painful cervical check, and in my case it took them multiple tries to get it in (or maybe that was the pressure monitor? It all blends together). Then the contractions while the Foley was in were tough... although to be fair the Foley was the only thing we did that actually resulted in cervical change, so maybe the contractions felt worse because they were actually doing something.
I'm bumping this- i have a question about endometrin suppositories. I started them yesterday. This morning I went to the bathroom and it's like it just melted and came out? I'm worried there shouldn't be so much leaking out. And I'm cramping a bit now. Any experience with what is normal here?

I also had a white discharge from the Endometrin. I needed to wear a panty liner daily.
