according to the website due date calcs i
am about 7 weeks now.
i had my 1st u/s when i was around 4 weeks
& the u/s tech said she coulnt see
anything in my uterus. needless to say i
was upset. my dr. said to get bloodwork
done to see if my hcg levels were rising.
i had my 1st bloodtest and then 48 hours
later went back for my 2nd. my dr. said my
levels doubled which were normal. but my
dr. did say that on my 1st bloodtest the
hcg levels were low & i could have been
earlier in pregnancy than they had
thought. could this be true? maybe it was
just to early or should i be worried? i
have my 1st prenatal checkup on feb 19th
but until then its just a worrying and
waiting game. has this happened to anyone
else or any advice at all? thanks
everyones bodies and preg are different if
you are concerened please call your dr
they may be able to make you feel at ease
but id say dont worry hun ok

i agree with candita
you should check with your dr about this.
im pretty sure this happens to some girls
but you should def make sure.

when i rang to book my appointment the
lady told me i had to be at leats 6 weeks
to do the dating, i guess because they are
so tiny, like at 3 weeks your baby is only
about .2 of a ml big! so it is likely that
they just werent able to see it yet,
especially if you were a little bit less
than you thought

It souns like it could be too early, and
as for HCG levels every pregnancy is
different. The more important thing is
that they rise the first 6-8 weeks and not
if they are low or high.
Good luck keep us posted.
