    Low Levels of HCG

    Hi. Feeling a bit anxious so thought i'd post a question, hope I'm on the right board...
    Today is 25 days since my LMC (normally have 29 day cycle) and I tested positive on several EPT. All were very very faint lines (almost barely visible), but were there. Went to dr and line was even more faint on his urine test. I had a blood test and it came back I had very low hcg level of 15 (if I ovulated day 15 I would be just over 3 weeks). Dr seemed concerned & didn't even confirm I was pregnant, sending me back for another test on Thu (two days) to see if hcg levels increased.
    Just wanted to know if anyone had experienced anything similar with a successful and healthy pregnancy. Thanks

    Thanks for checking in... so sweet! Things are all looking really well. 2 days later my levels went from 15 to 66 and then 4 days after that they went to 365. I asked the dr if that was too high and he said not at all... so im cruising along!

    Im so excited. How are you going? x
