The office called with my hcg level...
I think its ok, but they made me nervous at first saying "its low and we need to do another one on tuesday".
It was 275. I was 4 weeks and 2 or 3 days when it was taken.
According to charts it seems ok for that early, no???
Can anyone put my mind at ease? I'm almost certain my level with Johnny was in the 100's when I first went, I was like 4 weeks 1 day but I can't remember....

It seems totally normal and you will know for sure when you get re-tested. I don't think it's too low for how early it is!

Re: The office called with my hcg level...
Are they on crack? That's not low at all. Are you sure they were referring to your HcG levels? Because usually they test HcG and progesterone, so maybe your progesterone came in a little low?
I had my beta test at exactly 4 weeks and it was 318, which my RE said was a fantastic number.

Totally normal.. not low at all for 4 weeks. My RE at 4 weeks looks for the first beta to be between 50-100. My first one was 150

Re: The office called with my hcg level...
Thanks ladies
I wasn't worried when she told me the # was 275, I thought "oh wow higher than with johnny..".
Then she sounded concerned and said "that number is low, we need to retest in a week to see that its rising".
When i told her I was only 4 weeks 2 days when blood was taken she goes "ohhh, yeah you're pretty early then, but we still need to recheck".
I didn't ask about progesterone, they never mentioned it?? I think i'm ok though, all my signs are still pretty strong, so that keeps me positive. And hearing your responses helps tremendously!!!
-I really wish she didn't sound so concerned though, it is still bothering me!!
