pregnant again

ok i had a ectopic in febuary of this year in my right tube i was able to keep tube but they removed it surgicaly. so now i found out i am pregnant about 5-6 weeks according to my missed period. well they started monitoring my hcg levels and the first test was 208 and 48 hours later it was 425 and the next 48 hours it was 699 im afraid the doc said dont worry it is still in normal range i test again tomarrow morning please pray for me. i also had a little pain on and off on my left side and the docs did a u/s and did not see a baby any where and of coarse my levels are not high enough so they were not expecting to but they did see a 2 cm cyst on left ovary. i am having back issues also i think its a nerve it hurts when i sit to long or stand to long. has any one ever experience any of these things? what worries me is my hcg level not doubling on the last test. HELP!!!

It doesn't have to exactally doubler.. you numbers are going up well and the fact that it hadn't doubled yet isn't a big deal..if you would have tested an hour later the number could have been much different..

Your range is good.. I think your chances are very good.

so sorry to hear that you've had to go through this!   congrats on the pregnancy though! : )   Sometimes a beta doesn't go by the books, and everything can be just fine!  they like to see it doubling every 70 hours (you can find a beta calculater online and enter your numbers and see how yours compare) also there was a calculator i found once that showed other peoples numbers and how many of them had successful pregnancies.. and i saw many that did not increase near as good as yours and still had successful pregnancies!!! I know how bad "beta hell" can be (waiting from beta to beta, its the worst!!!)

here is a good website,  /****.***
    and as all experts say   , you can't just go on the beta (its not suprising they didn't see anything on your ultrasound being so early , plus hopefully the pain on your left is from that cyst! its good they found a cause for that! : )  )   I"m praying for you! that this is a healthy pregnancy thats getting snug in your uterus for the long nine months to come! : )   keep me updated!
