Here is a site I found that might help you: http://www.advancedfertility.com//earlypre.htm It has a chart of hcg levels. According the the chart, your hcg looks normal. My doctor told me that you can never make any judgements based on a single hcg level. What matters is whether the number is doubling every 2 or 3 days. Congratulations on your pregnancy!
