Bad cramping and low hCG levels

My hcg level from yesterday's blood draw is 305. If I got a positive hpt or 8 of them lol 11 days ago, I don't see how my levels can still be so low with a healthy growing baby. Looks like I'll be leaving this board soon. Not really looking forward to hearing tomorrow's lab results. I just want to get this over with. This has been an awful couple of days. :

If your levels are doubling every 48 hours, you would have had a level of around 10 eleven days ago. Those ultra-sensitive FRER can pick up HCG at 10 or less per some reports. So it's possible that you are doubling just fine. I would wait to see what your next level is. Cramping is normal.

Agreed.  My first level was 11.6.  My #'s have been rising as they should and I am also waiting to hear this morning about my bloodwork from yesterday (my last round of bw if the #'s are good).

Hoping you get good news today!

The cramping is more like a sharp nonstop shooting pain in just my left side. I guess nothing is for sure until we get today's results. Thanks ladies!

If its sharp or shooting and constant on only one side, then you should call your doctor.

Agree. You'll want to rule out an ectopic.

ETA. this is in response to the call your doctor suggestion. Quote fail.

The sharp shooting Is what started this whole process. My first appointment wasn't supposed to be till next week. It's also why I'm not very hopeful.

I've read the doubling really needs to happen between 48-72 hours.   It seems like your levels are doing that, so fingers crossed they continue to rise!
