Tanya, I'm not a doctor, but maybe my story can encourage you. At 5 weeks, my h.c.g. levels were 5000, and the dr. saw NOTHING in my uterus. He tested my h.c.g. levels for a while and they continued to rise, so while we didn't have a lot of hope, my dr. decided to take a "wait and see" approach. At 6 weeks, my h.c.g. levels were a whopping 90,000 and my dr. still didn't see a heartbeat. Three days later, we saw a beautiful little heart beating. I am now 18 weeks and am doing great!!!! Good Luck to You!!!! Next message: Katie: "Re: Terrified about RH factor - please help" Previous message: Tanya: "? for Drs about confounding HCG levels and US findings..."
