As i understand it the fact that the hcg level is doubling is a sign of a good healthy pregnancy. It does not mean that the pregnancy will continue to develop normally as sometimes embryos have problems in development and stop growing and this causes a mc. If you are concerned about this talk to your doctor who can offer reassurance or more tests and scans. Chances are everything is great in there will develop normally and you will have a healthy and happy 9 months
With Megan I had hcg done around 4 weeks & it was 86 & then 48 hrs later it was in the 200's (forget the exact #) so more than doubled - it was the only hcg tests & had - and she was fine.
December miscarriage #1 - only hcg test I had was after I started bleeding which was at 6 weeks & hcg was in the low 300's. I miscarried later that same day.
My miscarriage in April I had hcg checked at 4 weeks and then 2 days later & it doubled (49-101). They scheduled another one at 6 weeks just for peace of mind for me - well it was only 300's & I had started spotting pink just that morning. I miscarried a few days later.
my levels were doubling at the beginning, but later slowed down. was diagnosed with a blighted ovum, miscarried at 13wks. unfortunately i don't think there is anything that can guarantee a healthy pregnancy .
