low hcg

4 weeks 1 day: 88
4w 3D: 123
4w 5d: 163
I should also note I ovulated on cd 15 at earliest. NP at my office said 100% going to be mc. (No spotting, bleeding, or cramping. Am now 5w 2 days)Was extremely upset as we had been trying a while and had 2 glasses of wine. Made appt to see OB next morning as I was told I needed a d&c most likely. My OB was shocked the NP said this and stated we should never have been checking my levels so frequently and there is still a chance all is good. He is going to have a talk with her as he has never had this problem and he has worked with her for 14 years. He said I must have said something to trigger her to keep checking them. So not the case! I must also note, I am an NP myself, in a way different field, but I would never order unnecessary tests or labs just because! So no more levels and now doing Us on 6 week mark. Such an emotional roller coaster, and I had wine thinking I was for sure going to mc. Ugh!!! What do you ladies think of all of this? Any success stories with low Hcgs?

Low hcg wouldn't be a worry to me. The fact that it didn't come close to doubling is more troubling.

First off don't stress about having some wine. That wouldn't have any effect on the outcome of this pregnancy! My hcg levels were tripling around this time every 48 hours. Yes, they should be doubling every 2 days, but I did read a few posts with ladies having low hcg slowly rising and being okay. Don't lose hope and try not to stress. I hope everything goes well for you!!
