Has anyone had a misdiagnosis about Ectopic pregnancy? My dr. thinks that I might be having that. My number's are increasing but not as fast as they would like. Any hope would be great!!!

, personally, don't have any experience with it. However, my friend was told she was probably having an ectopic pregnancy because her numbers were increasing at a very slow rate and she was having a lot of pain. That was in June. She is still pregnant and everything looks great! I will keep you in my prayers!

I've had two ectopics and one time my numbers went up normally for a couple days and then they plateued and would drop and go up and down. The second one my HCG went up very slowly but the main thing that made them worry was that my progesterone was 1.5. I hope that isn't the case with you. If they closely monitor you, it'll be okay. Good luck!

I was told I had a BFP but dont expect it to last. They assumed it was ectopic. My numbers were very low and not increasing as fast either. I am now 9 weeks pregnant and it is not ectopic. It just started a little slow. Good luck!

I was diagnosed as ectopic, but only after I had heavy bleeding. My numbers were fine for one week; then I started bleeding heavily and my next two blood tests showed my numbers were not increasing as they should have.
I have definitely heard of people that are ok even with low numbers. But if it is ectopic, it needs to be treated as soon as possible.

Keeping up hope for you!

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
