I imagine for people who catch their pregnancy this early, the numbers may be not be as clear cut as they are a little ways in.

I hope things work out for you..  it definately could go either way.

17dpo my hcg level was 65, i did this online calculator says my doubling time this time was only 61hrs and its normal to double in 48-72hrs. i was also severely dehydrated and drank alot of water between 15dpo and 17dpo and will be drinking alot more until fridays test (19dpo)

:( I have never had any of these numbers like that before, and I have never suffered a miscarriage but I wish you all the luck and pray that this baby sticks for you!

Honestly it doesnt sound promising since level are supposed to double every 48-72 hours. But they are going up instead of down so dont loose hope yet. Hopefully your next draw will give you more information.
