My first HCG levels

[waitn838]

so figured i should be about 4 weeks 3 days today and the nurse just told me my HCG level yesterday (4wk2d) was 246....then she proceeded to say its low so we have to repeat the test on monday

i swear i could fall over...why would she say that to me...my last preg i was at 303 at 4 weeks...i think the number is good but now there's that little bit of doubt that crept in

What matters is that is doubles every 48-72 hours not neccessarily where it starts from. Believe me some nurses are doom and gloom and some aren't I have had the experience of both. Hang in there and don't give up on it!! Congrats and enjoy!

She's not very bright.  Your number is fine.

Im with Peek and sadiesmommy! Your numbers sound just fine, and its not really how low they are its if they are rising/doubling every 48-72 hours.... I am sure everything is just fine! Congrats!! and good Luck!

My Hcg level was 230 at 4 weeks 3 days and I am now 29.5 weeks pregnant.  I dont think that your number are low. Congrats on your pregnancy.

Mine were 150 at 4w1d.  Hcg levels vary from women to women so she doesn't have anything to base that statement on.  The only way she can tell anything from that is if it isn't rising properly.  Don't listen to her and just take it day by day.

thank you all...ill post my levels from monday as soon as i find them out...

so far not many symptoms...just tired/tingly feelings in my lower stomach and bbs...but im sure as the levels rise other symptoms will begin to appear
