Miscarriage or too early?! Help me So I posted the other day about being 4 weeks pregnant and having some brown discharge. Well I had more last night. Went to ER and they didn't see anything on US besides a huge cyst on my left ovary. But they tested my HCG levels and they were 45. He said at 5 weeks they should be 1000... but I've done tons of research and they don't start at 1000 until 6 weeks. At 5 weeks they can be as low as 18.... and mine were 45. the OB wants me to come in Wednesday to recheck my levels and then Thursday for an US. Have any of you ever been in this situation? I took a clear blue test this morning which hasn't showed positive for me like the others have and it was positive instantly.. so I feel like the ER doc had the hcg levels by weeks off a little bit... I'll know on Wednesday.. but need advice mama's. My SO (significant other) is so so sad. Adding pics of the clearblue from this morning. Er docs are notoriously bad for dealing with pregnancy, especially early pregnancy. The cyst could be a corpus latum (which is normal). Also if youre 5 weeks by LMP its very possible you ovulated late or implanted later and are not quite as far along as you think you are in which case lower numbers would be perfectly normal and not just in the range you can find online (it happened with my first - went in at 6w4d for an ultrasound and only saw a sac measuring 5w2d). Pregnancy is sooo anxiety inducing, and sadly the only thing you can really do is wait for your OB appointment and hope the numbers are going up properly!

When did you get your first bfp? I know for me even based on doubling, I got my first bfp at 9-10dpo and tests should read positive at 25hcg. So doubling that 25 would only put me at 600 today if they doubled exactly every 48 hrs, and I am 5 weeks today. (I dont know my actual levels as they do not do blood work for levels here at all)

I hope you get good news from your OB! Hang in there! Laellla &middot Original Poster
