New worry....molar pregnancy??

So, after 3 miscarriages, I am super worried about everything.  I just had my hcg drawn.  Last pregnancy, at 6 1/2 weeks, my level was only 1200, and I miscarried 4 days later.  Now, at 5 weeks 4 days (25 dpo), my levels are 10,057!  I am happy, don't get me wrong.  But since they are so high, I am now worried about it being a molar pregnancy.  I wasn't on any fertility medication, and twins don't really run in either side of the family.  My mom's mom has some on her side, but no immediate family twins.  Are these numbers toooo high?  Should I be concerned about a molar??

Thanks Jess.

Raerae - My cycles are usually 25-28 days.  This last cycle, I ovulated on day 13, I believe.  I had O pain on days 12 and 13 and had EWCM on day 13.  And yes, they scheduled an ultrasound for Friday now.  Can't wait!

Hope all goes well for you!

Sorry to keep posting lol but also twins have a tendency to ''skip'' a generation. you should be able to have an ultrasound after your levels are over 10 000 so maybe your doctor will schedule one for piece of mind.:)

I would not worry. Did the doctor sound at all concerned? My numbers were tripling at times they are now doing another ultrasound may 17th to check again for twins because its not a molar pregnancy but i was too early in my last ultrasound to rule out twins. Best of luck.
