Low HCG levels-Pregnancy Week 5

Shelby

Hi ladies! I am 5 weeks pregnant today. On Monday I got basic bloodwork done and my doctor called me on Tuesday to tell me that my HCG levels are lower than they would like for someone being 4 weeks pregnant, they were in the 100s. I got bloodwork again on Wednesday, hoping that they would rise to the 500s but are only in the 200s. This is my first pregnancy and I don’t have many friends who are mothers that I can talk to, so I guess my question is are there any mothers out there that went through something similar with their pregnancy or are currently going through the same thing? I’m really trying not to worry and put it in God’s hands but it’s easier said than done.
