My friend went through this last year and it scared me thoda. Now im 6 weeks and just want to understand at what point the doc can actually catch it on scan or blood test. Anyone here who got to know early?
I had such bad morning sickness that I thought something was wrong, but it's during those early weeks, around 8 to 12, that they can detect a molar pregnancy on ultrasound. The hCG levels go crazy high which can cause extreme nausea too. Please stay strong and get your early scans done regularly, it helps a lot.
When I was staying at my parents' place during my early months, my mother was very particular about getting the first scan done on time. It is usually during that 8 to 12 weeks scan that they check for molar pregnancy or other things. Having family around really helps to stay calm during these test days, so just trust your doctor and elders.
Actually yaar, it can be detected as early as 8 to 12 weeks during the first scan. That's why that dating scan is so important, no? If the doctor feels something is off, they also do blood tests to check hCG levels, which are usually way too high in these cases. Don't stress too much though, just get your routine checkup done on time.
Honestly, I barely remember my first trimester because I was literally a zombie, but I think the first ultrasound around 8-9 weeks is when they can spot this. My cousin went through it and that's when her doc figured it out. So yeah, early scan is super important, don't skip it, and let me go back to my cold tea now!
I'm currently in my second trimester and I remember worrying so much about this before my first scan. My doctor told me it's easily caught around 8-10 weeks during the dating ultrasound. Did anyone else here also have these random anxieties before their first trimester scans, or is it just me overthinking?
Molar pregnancy is something you shouldn't ignore, please consult your gynac for this. Normally, it gets detected in the first scan between 8 to 12 weeks or if you have severe vomiting or heavy bleeding. If you feel any such symptoms, please reach out to your doctor immediately instead of waiting.
