Nope :) ... best wishes!

My last pregnancy..my hcg level was low in the beginning and then it doubled...but I still lost the baby due to heart beat stopped at 8weeks.

The hormone human chorionic gonadotropin(better known as hCG) is produced during pregnancy. It is made by cells that form the placenta, which nourishes the egg after it has been fertilized and becomes attached to the uterine wall.
Your doctor might have taken your hcg level...how many weeks are you?? ..hcg level doubles every 72 hours...if it doesnt...there are more chances of miscariage.
