I found this information at http://www.americanpregnancy.org. If you are currently 13 DPO, you would be almost in the 4 wks. LMP timeframe, so an hcg of 43 is ok according to this chart! I know when I had my first pregnancy (a m/c) I was supposedly 6 wks. pregnant and my hcg was only 43. That was obviously too low. Now I am pregnant again and my first hcg levels (drawn 48 hrs. apart) were 495 & then 1776! I have been told that as long as your hcg is at least doubling every 48 hrs. the pregnancy is healthy & progressing well. If I were you, I would pay more attention to what today's hcg level is in relation to your level 2 days ago. I hope it doubles & that you have a happy, healthy 9 mos. ahead!

Answer 2

my hcg levels were done on day 11 as well and they were 60 then 6 days later they jumped to over 4500. I am now 13 weeks with a very healthy and active little monkey, so I wouldn't worry unless you have bleeding. I even had pretty bad cramping and it was just fine. Good Luck and try not to worry.
