Hcg Levels

Brittany

I know there is a range for hcg levels but if anyone can offer positive stories or advice, I would appreciate it.

I had a chemical pregnancy in December at 5w4days. Checked my hcg levels with a blood test and they dropped to a 2 - not pregnant. Tracked my cycle with OPK and had peak ovulation, had sex plenty, and received a very faint positive at 11 DPO. Called my OB, and went in for a blood test and hcg was a 12 and progesterone was 20. Nurse wasn’t concerned because it was so early and she said the progesterone was promising. Had blood drawn again 72 hours later, hcg increased to 20 and progesterone was 16 (still within a healthy range). They want my levels checked next week and I just don’t know what to think until then. She was being positive but I don’t know. I don’t want to get my hopes up but my levels were SO much higher with my first pregnancy.

Any insight?
