Partial molar pregnancy

Pa

I found out I was pregnant in October. We had a normal 8 week checkup and got to see our sweet baby. At my 12 week checkup, my baby had no heartbeat and had stopped growing at 9 weeks. I had no signs of naturally miscarrying, so I went in for a d&c later that week. Pathology came back, and we were told our baby was a partial molar (triploid- 3 sets of chromosomes instead of 2). With partial molar pregnancies, hcg levels are extremely high. We were told we can’t start trying again until 6 months after my levels are less than 5. I’m 5 weeks post d&c, and although my levels are decreasing, they aren’t low enough yet. Any other partial molar pregnancy losses out there, and how long did it take for your levels to drop?
