hcg tracking: updated
Some brief history, I`ve been TTC for 11 months and have irregular periods. 2 weeks ago I thought AF had began but was very light and stopped and started. A pregnancy test last monday showed a faint but second line, by Wednesday a much stronger second line but Thursday morning I had a bleed. Seen at early pregnancy clinic on friday. No baby seen on ultra sound scan but my bloods showed hCG over 250. Repeat bloods (2 days later) hCG now over 600 but I`m still spoting. Now I`ve got to go for more tests....
I feel like I`m in limbo! Have I misscaried? Am I still miscarring? Can this actualy become a baby???
I`m so confused and upset!
Update: just spoke to nurse at the clinic. blood results could indicate pregnancy as the result has doubled but I have to wait until Friday and will have a repeat scan and more blood tests.
So fingers crossed..... I will let you know how Friday goes.

Hopefully someone who knows more will be able to help.
As pp said your HCG levels should double every 48 hours so your levels look really good..if you were miscarrying then the levels would be dropping. It would be too early to see anything on a scan so there is every chance that it will be fine hun. When I was pg with my dd I had spotting as well and I had HCG levels tested- my first result was 125 and my second almost 400 so lower than yours but I was told that it doesn't matter what levels you have as long as they are doubling its a great sign. She is now a lively 2 year old!
Good luck hun, keep us posted

so sorry you are going through the mill.
I read loads on this topic last year & most sites i came across said HCG must be 1000 to get a good clear pic of what is going on.
I think its really promising that your HCG is rising so quickly check out this website hon there are some amazing stories that may give you some much needed PMA at the mo.
