Anytime my numbers have dropped, I have had a miscarriage :( I'm sorry to say but, you can bleed in a pregnancy and everything be fine. But, its usually not a good sign when the hCG levels drop. I'm so sorry and hope its not the case for you.

Around 10-14 weeks (sometimes as early as 9) your levels will reach their peak and slowly dwindle. This is normal--however you're too early for this to occur. Typically yes, dropping levels will indicate a miscarriage. It can also mean other things, such as vanishing twin. You need continued blood work to see what is going on.
