What shots? They shouldnt have given any shots untill they are 100% sure you are NOT pregnant anymore.

If they are testing for an Ectpoic Pregnancy then they should have scanned that area because they CAN be very Dangerous... can sometimes lead to death, with both you and baby (Sorry to scare you) And if its an Ectopic do you have a 'baby bump' on one side of your body? either left or right, it wouldnt be a normal average baby bump, it would be on your sideish of the stomach (Not the side of your body aha) where your tubes are because thats where the baby is. The Baby could also be Smaller than expected.... My Boyfriiends sister is currently pregnant, the baby is very small for 20 weeks (looks 17 weeks, but she is 20 if that makes sense)... everything is formed, but thhe baby is very small... My other SIL is currently in Labour haha.
Let us know what your Doc says

your deff still pregnant, i agree maybe your not as far along as you thought, if there was a 7 day difference it would be douboling every 7 days so its douboling slow, so you will have to wait to your next ultrasound to see i its a viable pregnancy, but your still pregnant though.

good luck and please keep us posted.

I have a feeling you're still pregnant, but not as long as you thought you were.... Did you pass a clot and things at your MC? If you dont mind me asking??
I would request an Ultrasound ASAP!

between the first one and the second one the douboling time was 2.7 days and its supposed to double between 2-3 days

and between the second one and the last one (if it was 7 days) the douboling time was 4.3 days again, the numbers are supposed to double every 2-3 days but after the numbers have reached more than 1,200 it way take as long as 4 days to double.

so i guess we will have to see after you reacive the last hcg results

FAQ ► Early Pregnancy Tests - HPT and hCG
Normal hCG Levels in Pregnancy
The HCG pregnancy hormone has a  wide range of normal levels in early pregnancy. HCG is the abbreviation for "Human Chorionic Gonadotropin". hCG is the "pregnancy hormone" which is being produced by the placenta as soon as implantation happens about one week after fertilization and ovulation. hCG then continues to rise until about 10-12 weeks at which point it will stabilize or drop.
Was your pregnancy test NEGATIVE? Could you STILL be pregnant? Check the answer HERE.
Many women wonder whether they have a normal hCG level or not. In most normal pregnancies at hCG levels below 1,200 mIU/ml the hCG usually doubles every 48-72 hours and it normally increaseses by at least 60% every two days.  As your pregnancy develops the increase slows down significantly. Between 1,200 and 6,000 mIU/ml serum, the hCG usually takes 72-96 hours to double, and above 6,000 mIU/ml, the hCG often takes over four or more days to double. It makes little sense to follow the hCG values above 6,000 mIU/ml as at this point the increase is normally slower and not related to how well the pregnancy is doing. After two to three months the increase will slow even further and eventually hCG levels even decline before reaching a plateau for the duration of the pregnancy.

There is really no single "normal" hCG level and there is a very wide range of hCG values as pregnancy progresses.
If you are interested to find out if your pregnancy is progressing normally or not then the most important information is to find out whether your blood hCG level is rising normally or not.

i really dont know what could be happening but how far along where you on the u/s cause somtimes you can not see anything till 4 weeks when the gestational sac appears. if you did the u/s when your levels where at 300 you may have been about 4 weeks 2 days. at 1,598 you could be anywhere between 5 weeks and 6 weeks.  did they do a ultrasound when your levels where at 1,598?, cause if not they should.

also did they did an endovaginal u/s or abdominal.

they should have scanned for that. How far along where you/are you? because if its an Ectopic, you will start to show on ONE SIDE around 8 weeks. Because its in your tubes. You will get your 'bump' on only one side at 8 weeks. If you're having an ectopic Pregnancy. It WILL need to be removed ASAP, as this can lead to death to you and baby if your tube bursts!

Good Luckk

You might have been pregnant with twins and Lost one, this happened to my step mum. She lost a twin her HCG stayed the same for 48 hours and then after another 48 hrs started rising again and now she has a 20 yr old son who has a kid of his own. 3 of her pregnancies were twins but lost them all. Its common in her family. After my MC my HCG levels went shooting down. Did they take another pregnancy test? They normally do a week after to discharge your from their records (Thats what happens in England).

Its possible you have lost a twin.

Good Luck.
