Hope this helps.






Week since last menstrual period began
Amount of hCG
in mIU/ml
3
5 - 50 (less than 5 means you are not pregnant)

4
5 - 426

5
19 - 7,340

6
1,080 - 56,500

7-8
7,650 - 229,000

9-12*
25,700 - 288,000


So going by this, everything looks good Do you have another blood test in a couple days to see if your levels are rising?

:yeahthat:

Keep in mind too, that even tho you think you're 4 weeks and 4 days, you don't know exactly when implantation occurred. But that aside your HCG levels are fine, so keep your stress hat OFF.

Hi Mummyof4.

I can relate to your concerns. I have been having quantitative tests to monitor my HCG levels and progesterone since the beginning of my pregnancy.

I've typed the HCG reference range directly from my results below.

Gestation
1-2 weeks 50 - 500
2-3 weeks 100 - 1,000
3-4 weeks 500 - 6,000
1-3 months 5,000 - 200,000
2nd Trimester 5,000 - 50,000
3rd Trimester 5,000 - 50,000

By your dates your gestion would be at 2-3 weeks so you are definitely within the correct range so please try not to worry.

To put your mind to rest you could ask your GP to do quantitative HCG tests to continue to monitor your hormones.

Best of luck to you.

Hi Mummyof4!

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

I agree that you cant be certain of the exact timing of the implantation and may not be at the stage you believe. Ask the Dr for a 2nd (or more for peace of mind) blood. I may be way of the mark but from memory you want that HCG number to be doubling every 2-3 days.

HTH.
