spherocytosis and slow rising hcg

[horseypants]

hi all, i'm about 6 and a half weeks today and saw a heartbeat for the first time ysterday after having spent the last week assuming i'd already had a missed mc. the reason i thought it was over was these hcg numbers. the last one should have been more like 15000

15dpo 216
17dpo 597
24dpo 2734
30dpo 3835

the other part of this question is simply, has anyone dealt with spherocytosis? it's a blood disorder my oh has. my lo, if he/she survives, has a 50/50 chance of having it too. i wonder if that might have something to do with the slow rising hcg?

My sister has it. She never had a problem until she was around 5-6 and started getting sick more often from a lowered immune system. I don't think it would really effect an embryo that early on.
