I just went through the same thing.The day I missed my period my hcg was 34. Went back 2 days later(x-mas day) and it was only at 48. They told me I should wait a week to see if the #'s got higher. New years eve day I began to spot(fri.)Brownish, not much. By sunday i was definitely bleeding more heavily and past some tissue that night. On mon. my hcg level was 138. They told me they suspected a miscarriage and to come back in a few days to see if hcg's were going down. and they did. Cate or Tara, in your prior miscarriages did you know what your hcg levels were and if they were rising normally?? I'm just wondering as I've never miscarried before. My dr. did say that she has seen plenty of women with low hcg #'s that go on to have perfectly healthy babies. My case didn't turn out that way but you don't want to lose faith that yours could. It is always best to sort of be prepared for the worst then hope for the best. I will be crossing my fingers for the both of you. Good luck!
