good luck, hope you get what you are hoping for - keep me posted. I hope it flies for the first tri then i will be able to enjoy it and take each day as it comes and enjoy spending quality time with my 18 mth old.
Same here, at 4weeks + my level was 50hcg. then after about a week I got another test which was 380hcg or so. It looks good, and just because you had one miscarriage doesn't mean you'll have another.
GOOD LUCK!
P.S. the time will FLY by, it seems as tho just yesterday I was 5weeks and now I'm 16+! I hope to find out if it's a girl or boy on Thursday....yay.
thanks - hope things improve with you too and you find out one way or the other :)
I got preggo after my m/c and I was scared and worried too! The thing is... worrying won't help or hinder anything. Good luck at your u/s!

Ooh, that is VERY good! When I was that early my levels were like in the 30-40 range I think. The point is they need to double, as you know!
