Ashton- no... actually your levels should triple every 48 hours in the beg. Mine were 134 on 11 dpo... So, 3 weeks 4 days... and then 48 hours later it was at 370 at 3 weeks 6 days.... then 6 days after that.. at 4 weeks 5 days it was at 4467. One week after that it was over 20,000. So, in the beg. it should triple every 48 hours... then when your about 5 or 6 weeks.. it might double every 48 hours and then once it hits about 10,000.. only double every 72 hours. But, it should be about 5000 around 5 weeks. So, even though it seems yours started out kinda late.. it looks good and normal now. Once your HCG hits 2000 you can view it on the ultrasound. But, the numbers don't seem high at all. Oh, by the way... I am only having one with my numbers and they were definitely higher. ANd I know my exact date of conception. That is why HCG varies so much. You can't really go by just the HCG alone. Good luck!! Oh, when are you having an ultrasound?? Also, at 5 weeks 4 days... which is 25 days past ovulation... your levels should have been a lot higher than only 41. So, maybe you aren't as far as you thought or you ovulated late!?

Hi Daniella I am glad to hear that everything is going well with you. Awww isn't it fun to see the little pouch getting bigger I have little pouch already too I feel the baby move sometimes too it's cute I'll feel like a twirl or like a summersault feeling it's pretty cool. Have you felt anything yet?? Well I am 15 weeks 3 days today.

What should hcg level be at for a normal/single pregnancy at 3 weeks pregnant?...I went to the doctors on Friday, did an ultrasound, found that I was only 3 weeks pregnant. I had blood drawn on that same day. My Hcg level was at 567, on Monday (3 days) later its was 2228....does it mean twins?

Hi guys, hope you are all well? we had appointment with specialist today...all tests came back clear for me and my husband! I have spent the whole day in tears..you think I am mad I know...I shud be pleased, but I wanted them to find something, not serious but something then I would at least have a reason why we have had 3 miscarrages! But no nothing...Nature, if I hear that word one more time then I will scream! He now refuses to see us again until I get preg again..nothing no advice no nothing...all he said is that next time he will prescribe a low dose of asprin, thats all...I asked about proges he said that it has been proven in the UK that it categorically does not work....I was dumbfounded!! I just feel like we have hit a brick wall, and next time is still going to be a anxious time of uncertainty!!!! Me and my husband not sure we got the strenth to go through this again!! Love to you all xx

NB- I lost 3 pregnancies also and they couldn't find anything wrong at all.... except that my progesterone wasn't staying high on the last one, so as a precaution I "made" my doctor prescribe Crinone 8% for this pregnancy the moment I found out and I am now 16 weeks. My levels have been checked and 4 weeks after the meds. my levels were exactly the same as it was before I started. SO, if I wasn't on the progesterone supplments my levels would have dropped again and this would have been my 4th loss. My sister saved her pregnancy because of progesterone supplements also. It definitely helps if thats all you needed like me. I just wish we found out sooner on my last pregnancy. I would have been due in Feb. if we caught it in time and saved it. The supps dont hurt at all, so I don't know why your dr. wouldn't give it to you just in case. Beckie___ when you say 3 weeks... do you mean 5 weeks with the 2 weeks gestation.... or 3 weeks since your LMP?? Because if you conceived 3 weeks ago (meaning that your 5 weeks) then your HCG should be about 5000. So, sounds good to me! Can't tell if that is a single or not. But, you can see it on the ultrasound at 2000, so you can find out at any time now. Good luck!!

Hey Ladies,
Well I just wanted to update everyone on how my appointment went today well we had the ultrasound with the Specialist and he said that there is still blood in the Amniotic Sac I guess there is a little blood clot in the corner he said it's called a Hematoma something I forgot whatelse he said. Well other than that he said to just take it easy and that the baby looks great we seen the head,tummy,legs,arms,toes,fingers it was soo cool and the heartbeat was still strong and they say it looks like we may be having a girl!!! I'm soo excited well we go back in 3 weeks for the Anatomy Ultrasound so we'll see how that goes and hopefully that blood clot on the Sac will absorb....

You mentiond you had trouble with spotting. That merely means that implantation has occured nothing else. sorry to dissappoint you but obviously the second egg was implanted properly and died, like every other 2-3 week miscarrige. As for Janelle, if there is any Hcg in your blood you are definitely pregnant.

Hello everybody. I have never posted here before but I have a question. I had what I thought was a period on November 8th and then light spotting November 19th thru the 26th. I had a positive (faint) test on November 23rd. I went to the ER on the 29th and they did ultrasounds but couldn't see anything and said my uterus doesn't look pregnant. But the weird thing is my hcg is 1500 so I don't understand. That seems high for only 2 weeks pregnant but it also seems high if I miscarried on November 8th instead of having my period like I thought. Any comments on the situation would be greatly appreciated. I am going on Dec 1st to repeat the hcg. Also my pregnancy symptoms are slowly disappearing.

Daniella - How are you?? How did your appointment go?? I hope everything went well. Well I am doing pretty well I had some brownish spotting on Saturday and a tiny little brown clot too, The doctor had told us that if I have any brown spotting not to worry because it was just the old blood comming out so I was not too concerned about it, I am just hoping that when I go to the doctors again that the blood in the Amanotic Sac is gone. We'll soon see though. Well I go to the doctors again on the 7th to take the AFP Test, and then I go to my Doctors on the 14th and then the Specialist on the 15th. I'll let you know how it goes...Take care of yourself and that baby of yours...
