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 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

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 )

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