My last LMP was on 18/9/2009. Home pregnancy test was positive. On 05/11/209 I had a scanning and SAC was found. Since my periods were irregular (for abt 30-35 days), on 5/11/2009 SAC was 4 weeks 6 days old. Doctor asked for re-scanning to see heart beat on 18/11/2009. By then it was 6 weeks 6 days. But no heart beat was found. Later doctor adviced for Beta HCG test and asked to come on 26/11/2009. I got the blood test report and HCG level is 22353.0 mIU/ml.

Since I am yet to meet doctor next week, please let me know whether HCG level is proper? ]]> priyareplies http://www.indusladies.com/forums/im-pregnant/77774-need-help-understanding-beta-hcg.html High BP before detecting Pregnancy http://www.indusladies.com/forums/im-pregnant/77757-high-bp-before-detecting-pregnancy.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 05:57:08 GMT th day from my LMP I had a sudden spurt of Blood Pressure.

This is my first post to Indus Ladies! Though I m your regular reader!:cheers
On the 25th day from my LMP I had a sudden spurt of Blood Pressure. I immediately went to a General Physician who was a Lady. In spite of indicating to her that I have not got my periods yet and I am suspecting pregnancy, she prescribed a BP tablet. She said nothing will be a problem until 30 days. Somehow I was not OK about that and I didn’t take the medicine.
I took leave from Work and stayed at home the next 1 week. The BP stabilized to 120 /100. This 100 was not coming down. On the 34th night, I didn’t the Home Preg Test. It showed a faint positive. I repeated it on the 35th day morn. I got the same result. Then I went to a Ob-gyn in the evening. Since it was Saturday, most of the Ob-gyns mentioned in our forum were not available. That lady asked me to do a urine test in the lab there. The result was negative. She checked the BP, it was normal. She said we will wait for 1 week and then check.
However she completely ignored that I had a high BP the previous week. I will be repeating the tests tomorrow and going to a better Ob-Gyn.
But I am kind of worried why that High BP showed up all of a sudden. Does anyone have a clue?

I need to travel to India in my 22nd week.I spoke to my doc(Iam 13 weeks pregnant now) and she told it should be fine but I have a confusion
1)Are direct flights(15 hours at a strech) is ok to travel during pregnancy.
(Planning to take Air India from JFK to Mumbai directly Less total travel time but at a stretch)
Or
2)A short break in between will help ?(Jet airways which has a stopover in Brussels for 2 hours with more total travel time)

Which would be better..

Ladies please advice

Changes in your baby

First trimester (Weeks 1–12)
  • Approximate weight: 1 oz (30 grams)
  • Approximate height: 3–4 inches (7.6–10.2 cm)
Second trimester (Weeks 13–28)
  • Approximate weight: 2 lbs (900 grams)
  • Approximate height: 14 inches (35.6 cm)
Third trimester (Weeks 29–40)
  • Approximate weight: 6–9 lbs (2,500–4,000 grams)
  • Approximate height: 19–20 inches (48–50 cm)
Changes in you

First trimester (Weeks 1–12)
  • Weight gain: Often little to no weight gain. Your body is making two special organs to to help support the pregnancy called the placenta and the amniotic sac.
Second trimester (Weeks 13–28)
  • Weight gain: Healthy weight gain is 0.5–1 lb per week from 12 weeks onward. Should be “showing” now.
Third trimester (Weeks 29–40)
  • Weight gain: Healthy weight gain is still 0.5–1 lbs (1.1–2.2 kg) each week. Your belly will grow and show the most during this trimester.
