I would have it rechecked in 48-72 hours to make sure it doubles. If it does, than you should be ok. Mine was 14 and 4 weeks and it ended up being a chemical pregnancy. Good luck.

The normal range for 4 weeks is anywhere from 5 to 426, so you are in the normal range. Mine was around 35. The important thing is that your levels are doubling. Don't put to much stock in one number. You need to have your levels checked again to insure they double.

Maybe you miscalculated your ovulation. Seems a little low to me, but I think it's fine, because at4 weeks, a matter of days makes a big difference in your HCG level, and a matter of days is all it take to be off on your ovulation :)

I think your O is off :)

Mine is 18 so I'm in the same boat but i met another woman on the boards who started at 17 and it has made it and another girl who started at around 18 and ended up with twins. I keep hearing the first number isn't as important as the second and third. As long as it doubles we should be fine! Fingers crossed for sticky beans!

I just had a 17 two days ago. The test today was a 35. I'm hoping that it will be okay it it keeps doubling. I've had 2 chemical pregnancies, so I'm pretty nervous too. Please keep us updated after your second test.
