low HCG levels

Hi everyone!  I'm new to this but here goes.  I had a natural miscarriage on March 19th 2006.  I was ten weeks but the baby had died at 6 weeks.  Everything went as well as can be expected and my HCG level was 2 about a month ago.  I took an HPT last week and it was faintly positive.  Took a few more, and they are still faint.  Went to the doctor and I have an HCG level of 25.  Could it be I caught it really early and that's why the levels aren't rising that high yet?  Any help in this situation would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks!!

I found out i was pregnant a few days ago.
The day after i was bleeding and getting cramps, i went to the emergency room and my hcg level ws at 151. They said that was a little low, and because i was bleeding and having cramps that it could be a m/c ..  I went in three days later and my levels were at 154. and they told me the same thing "i threatened m/c" has anyone experienced this?

I was 10 dpo and got a temp drop in my chart. I assumed implantation & took a First Respons Early Pregnancy Test (2 of them) around noon and got positives. Very light, but visable and pink. I also took 3 wondfo internet brands and also got faint positives. Then I retested today with FMU at 11 dpo and got the same thing. Went in for a blood test and my hcg was 4 and my progesterone was 17.  What does this mean. How can a 4 pull a positive on a test. And if it was a chemical or a neg pregnancy why is my progesterone so high? Help please.
