if you turly are 7 weeks then you would have seen something.  Your numbers sound like you might be about 5 weeks along maybe?  You won't see much of anything even at 6 weeks.  Try to relax, you can't tell if anything is wrong with out seeing how your numbers are doing (and even then it's hard to be 100% sure).

If they didn't see anything, you may not be far enough along yet.  How long ago did you have the first u/s.  Doctors will usually wait a week in between b/c that will show the most progress.  Also, your hcg won't mean much unless you get a second blood draw about 48-72 hours later to see if they are rising.  Good luck, I wouldn't worry too much at this point.  You only have half of the puzzle so far.  =)
