Kim, I just wanted to give you some encouragement. When I was about 6 wks pregnant I started bleeding (not just spotting) and went for an U/S. The tech. saw NOTHING on the U/S, and told me basically to go home and wait to miscarry. I was beyond devasted. They did take my HcG levels several times, and like yours, they were doubling. Of course, that didn't stop me from being terrified. Nine months later I delivered the healthiest, most beautiful baby boy I had ever laid my eyes on. Keep your chin up- you will be a success story also!
