sometimes you might tend to have lower hcg and everything be fine, as long as its going up you should be fine.

HCG levels vary for every woman. Some women at 3-4 weeks pregnant have HCG of 50, sometimes less, and it is fine. The point is that the HCG should be doubling every 24-72 hours. Definitely don't tell anyone until you know your HCG is doubling!!!

10 DPO:      10 - 50   mIU/ml HcG
13 DPO:     20 - 100 mIU/ml HcG
16 DPO:      40 - 200 mIU/ml HcG
19 DPO:    80 - 400 mIU/ml HcG
22 DPO:    160 - 800 mIU/ml HcG
your in the normal range
not everbody will be the same at all times, some rises faster some rises slower. its a shame doc try to rule out neg from those numbers, you can not tell whats what  with one number and even more. everybody is diffrent and thats why there is such a wide range of normal hcg levels.  just try to relax, remeber stress is not good at this point. im sure baby is just fine. : )

ill see if i can find it again. also you have to look at if the test was done diffrent times of the day that they can show off a lil, say for instince one was tookin in the morning and the other took in the afternoon it could make them off a lil.  and rember it takes  48-72 hours for them to double. i checked on a Beta hCG Doubling Time Calculator and it says by them 2 levels thats its doubling every  2.22 days, thats great!!
read this webmd page, it might be able to help you to.
