I had a miscarriage the end of August at 12 weeks but the baby only measured to be 5 weeks . I have not gotten my period since . Last week I had my mid wife test me and try and find out why I never got my period
. She said I was 3 weeks pregnant . I have one  9 year old and he was big healthy and perfect. What are the chances something will go wrong again ? We were not trying this time

They should re-test your levels to make sure they are doubling every 48-72 hours. That would be the best way to tell what is going on. Then once it reaches a certain level, they should want to do an u/s. Just a number alone won't be able to tell you much as everyone woman is different, it's the doubling that's important. I really hope everything continues well for you! Keep us posted!

It seems fine, you are very early so i would really not worry until your a little further along. If they start doubling then your pregnancy is fine. I had an ectopic last year too and lost my right tube but i think my hcg never really rose at all. I was terrified that this one would result in another one because i was bleeding on and off but this time no period cramps the whole time. Im 40 weeks now.. :) Do you have another doc appointment? See if they double.... I was just like you though i went to the ER like 10 times lol I was terrified of another ectopic and i swore i was having another one not to mention i had an empty sac at almost 6 weeks!
