Scared need some input

I found out I'm pregnant a few weeks ago after having a loss in march. I had gone to the dr for bloodwork and my hcg and progesterone lvls looked good. On Thursday of last week I started spotting and have continues to spot only when I wipe. The dr did and u/s on Monday because we thought that was when I would be 6 wks per my lmp. I was measuring 5wks 2 days and we could only see the sac They ran more blood work and it is going along the 5wks.  I go back next wed for another u/s.  Has anyone experienced anything like this? I'm scared I'm going to loose another baby. My body is acting completely different from my first successful pregnancy and the one I lost in march.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

It doesn't really matter that it is in the 5 week range when it comes to hcg levels it matters that it doubles every 48/72 hours. If you levels are doubling your chances of a healthy pregnancy are much greater than if they don't. Levels that barely rise are almost a sure sign of an impending miscarriage.

Dr said hcg and progesterone were right where they should be for 5 weeks. The waiting I think is what's killing me. Not sure if my husband can get off work to go with me... I talked to my mom and if he can't go she said she'd go. Neither will let me go to the dr by myself at this point.

Honestly it could go either way.. Spotting doesn't always equal loss of the pregnancy. Your hcg levels are the only way to know for sure what's going on.
