    Hi babe, here is a rough guide:

    Guideline to hCG levels during pregnancy:
    hCG levels in weeks from LMP (gestational age)* :

    3 weeks LMP: 5 - 50 mIU/ml
    4 weeks LMP: 5 - 426 mIU/ml
    5 weeks LMP: 18 - 7,340 mIU/ml
    6 weeks LMP: 1,080 - 56,500 mIU/ml
    7 - 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 - 229,000 mIU/ml
    9 - 12 weeks LMP: 25,700 - 288,000 mIU/ml
    13 - 16 weeks LMP: 13,300 - 254,000 mIU/ml
    17 - 24 weeks LMP: 4,060 - 165,400 mIU/ml
    25 - 40 weeks LMP: 3,640 - 117,000 mIU/ml


    So you are looking OK to me babe, bare in mind some people dont even get a positive on a 50mIu/ml pg test before 5 weeks......so keep ya chin up babe :hugs: xx

    As long as the levels are within the ranges Tam has given you're fine.
    The important thing is how much they increase within 2/3 days.
    Are you having another test to check?

    Looking good :D

    I had mine taken wed, fri and wed for a week and a half and it worked out that they were just over doubling in 2 days even though I thought mine were very high (hoping for twins :lol:)

    Try and bully your doctor, you wouldn't believe the amount of relief I felt just having these 3 tests.
